Loads of responses received to this, which is terrific, but so many just not following the submission instructions, and so immediately removing themselves from consideration. Top tip: always follow any submission guidelines EXACTLY.

Need a comic artist for comic set in Birmingham, ideally Brum-based or Brum-familiar. Not looking for any cartoon or experimental styles. Sequential samples to submissions@timebombcomics.com please, quoting BRUM in the subject line. Please share 🙂

Lee Anderson proclaiming today that today's Claction result is historic. He's absolutely right, as never before has a bin come second in any UK by-election.

Pleased that the Quantum #1-#4 KS has almost hit £1K, especially as many of my regular UK backers will likely already have the comics. That said, some have jumped on to support, which really is a splendid thing for them to do 🙂Quantum Newbies also very welcome, of course!

The problem with 2 books arriving fresh from the printer at the same time is choosing which one to crack open and smell first...

I did enjoy this, but I enjoyed the scenes outside the gorge much more. Below the mist it felt like watching a 2-player shoot-em-up. They're always much more entertaining for the players than the observers. #thegorge #movies #AppleTV

I'm at MCM! Hopefully will catch up with some of you there 🙂 #comics #indiecomics #comiccon #quantum

Rob is my letterer of choice, so hit him up (but not too much as I still need him available for my gigs!).

Rob Jones - Letterer/Writer/WOTW: Thunder Child out NOW!!!@robjoneswrites.bsky.social · 2y ago

Hi, I'm Rob Jones, you might remember me from such comics as 'that one', 'the one you keep meaning to read' and 'no, not that one you're thinking of'. I'm always on the lookout for more lettering work and #portfolioday is a great way to raise awareness! robjonesletteringblog.wordpress.com

He'll be doing serious jail time, surely?

So, Twin Peaks: The Return is like it heard everyone describing the original seasons as good but a bit weird and responded "hold my beer". #twinpeaks

Happy 2025! I hope some good things come your way and any not so good things are surmountable 😁

I thought this was very well done, in particular the colourisation, a real step up from last year's The Daleks rework.

Xmas Tree done right...

No logo, no letters, just the artwork by Roland Bird & Luca Mattoni of the double page spread from the latest Major Rakhana episode in Quantum #10.

I'm very sorry to report the death of the extraordinary comic creator Richmond Clements, a British comics writer, editor, events organiser and educator whose loss is being deeply felt by the comics community across the UK

A friend to many, an inspiration to many more

In publisher Steve Tanner's mind’s eye, Richmond Clements, whose death has been announced this week, will always be a smiling man in a white suit...

The latest issue of Quantum arrives in UK newsagents this week, with a glorious cover from line artist Gary Crutchley and colour artist Luca Mattoni. Luca also colours my Major Rakhana story inside, and has done a splendid job!

I lost a friend at the weekend, who I met through a shared passion of reading comics and creating them. A genuinely lovely man taken much too soon 😔
