Arthur Ferrier - Korero press Kickstarter campaign

Just a quick shout-out for this upcoming Kickstarter campaign from Korero press dedicated to the pin-up art of Arthur Ferrier.

Let's see what Korero press have to say about their upcoming campaign...

We are back with an exciting new project: a treasure trove of tantalising pin-up art from a master of the genre.

Welcome to the campaign for Arthur Ferrier’s classic cartoon collection Pin-up Parade, a 3-volume set that highlights the work of one of Britain’s most prolific and cherished pin-up illustrators.


Arthur Ferrier's work defined the heyday of British pin-up cartoons for nigh-on four decades. In clean, elegant ink line he rendered the fashionable female form with consummate virtuosity and style. Through comic strips, cartoons and advertising art, few illustrators were as celebrated or prolific.
 
Ferrier's women, often in a state of casual undress, were always catching the attention of dashing suitors – and the odd wolf. A big hit with the troops during World War II, Ferrier’s cheeky illustrations and quick-fire comic strips raised not only morale but a few eyebrows. After the end of hostilities, Ferrier continued to chart mid-century fads and fashions right up to the dawn of the Summer of Love.



This three-volume set includes cartoons plucked from the pages of Blighty magazine, news clippings, posters, magazine covers, rare original art, and an introduction by Rian Hughes.  
As an added bonus, we have included several articles by Ferrier himself that offer valuable insights into his working methods. These articles remain just as relevant for budding and professional pin-up artists and illustrators today as when they were first written.

Samuel George London talks 'Band of Warriors'

Just a reminder that Sam's Kickstarter closes today (Friday January 29th) so the good news is that there's still time to get onboard as a backer for this...

I recently caught up with one of the busiest men in comics...Mr Samuel George London...not only does he present a weekly podcast ('Comics for the apocalypse - catch-up on any episodes you've missed right here ) but he can often be found Kickstarting new comics. Sam was kind enough to spend some time chatting to me about his great sounding new project, Band of Warriors...

‘Band of Warriors’ then...give us the elevator pitch... Jordan Thomas summed it up best by saying 
"boobs, bloodshed and betrayal" but to slightly expand on that, BoW merges actual historical events with Celtic and Greek mythology in an epic tale of adventure, betrayal and vengeance.

I think the story is partly inspired by your wife’s connections in France – is that right? That's right. My wife is French and specifically from Brittany. Breton people are very proud of their history, particularly their Celtic heritage and I relish the opportunity to try and capture that spirit in a comic.

So was this a particular period of time that you’d studied before? Or was it a more recent discovery? 
I had some knowledge of Greek mythology but I had no idea about the actual history from around the time of its creation. So, it was really interesting to learn about the history based on fairly recent archaeological discoveries.

You envisage this potentially as a 6-part series is that right? This first issue is part of a 6 issue arc I have planned but it also has scope to become an ongoing series if we get the right level of support. I hope we get there because I'd love to tell the full story.

So, you have plans to really flesh out this world...is it one particular geographical part of the world that you want to focus on or would you like to see the characters travel their world? Great question! This first issue is based in one particular part of the world, which is the palace of Knossos specifically but for the rest of the story there's a fair amount of travelling to other locations involved.

You’re clear that the art for the book is historically accurate. I've made it as historically accurate as I could but with mythological elements thrown in. So that bit won't be but it'll be a lot of fun.

I’m not sure I can think of any other comics from this time period – have you come across any? I’m sure there are probably loads of bande dessinée books out there but I’m just not familiar with them... 
Kill the Minotaur is set at the same time and even includes King Minos as well but it's more of a comic book interpretation of the original Minotaur mythos. Whereas BoW is attempting to reflect actual history along with the mythology.


You’re perhaps best known as the writer of the ‘Milford Green’ comic series but you’ve written a number of different comics series I think... Thanks and yes. My other series include The S Factor with Chris Panda published by Action Lab, which is about the dark underbelly of a superhero dating reality TV show. Then there's Project Hoax with Dan Butcher, which is an all-ages one-shot horror comic. And lastly, there's Access Denied with Mikael Hankonen from the Milford Green series, which is about humans visiting androids living on Mars for the first time.

Federico Avila Corsini is an artist I haven’t come across before – how did you ‘meet’ him? I put an artist call out on both Twitter and Reddit, and thankfully Federico got in touch with me via Reddit. I'm so glad he did because otherwise I wouldn't have come across him.
What was it about Federico’s art style that made you think he’d be the right artist for this project?
He has the right balance of realism and fanaticism in his art to capture the historical accuracy as well as the mythology. When he first sent through the character designs, I was over the moon at how they turned out.


What has Nicole, the editor, been able to add to the project would you say? I've worked with Nicole on every project I've written so far apart from the original Milford Green but she seems to be able to point out small things in the story that needed tweaking in order to really put the icing on the cake. In regards to BoW #1, she managed to iron out the creases that I had in a big action scene. I honestly can't wait for everyone to see it.



Thanks for your time Sam!

Flight of the Eagle

About this time last year Colin Maxwell successfully launched his comic Raid on the Forth, and now he' back with a new comic, Flight of the Eagle. He's currently Kickstarting it here and I recently caught up with him to talk comics... 



Flight of the Eagle - what's the elevator pitch?
The true story of a World War Two Polish submarine that made a dramatic escape from internment and fled across the Baltic Sea to join the allied forces in Britain. Winston Churchill called it “the greatest adventure story to come out of the war”.


People may remember your work on "Raid on the Forth" last year; how did you first come across the "Flight of the Eagle" story? 
When researching Raid on the Forth, which is my comic about the first air raid over Britain of World War Two, I discovered that a Polish submarine had arrived at the naval dockyard at Rosyth just two days before the raid. Once I began researching it I was astonished that I’d never heard the story of the Orzel before.


How long has it taken to put the whole comic together?
I’ve been researching the story since I first read about it over a year ago, but planned to put pen to paper in January this year. Unfortunately I had food poisoning which lasted a month and I was very ill, so it was delayed quite a bit. While I was unwell I managed to piece together the story and then began drawing it after I’d recovered. It came together very quickly after that. I was drawing almost every day for about six weeks.

As with all stories from the past there are conflicting versions and all sorts of propaganda and mis-reports which have to be sifted through and weighed up. The research takes a long time, and sometimes I uncovered new information that took the comic in a different direction. In particular, I was intrigued about what happened to the original Captain of the submarine, who survived the war.


You've got a different Commando artist to do the cover this time - how did that come about? Had Ian seen "Raid"?
I’ve been a fan of Ian Kennedy’s artwork since I was a boy reading comics such as Warlord and Commando, but I didn’t meet him until Dunfermline comic con in 2016. We got chatting, and have been friends since. I’ve also interviewed him a couple of times at comic events and was lucky enough to get an invitation to a celebration of Ian’s 70 years in the business which was held at D.C. Thomson’s offices in Dundee last year. Ian read Raid on the Forth before it was released, as I’d sent him a copy to get his opinion. When I was looking for a cover artist for Flight of the Eagle I had considered Ian, but made the final decision when I saw some of Ian’s submarine artwork that someone had shared on a Facebook group.


Was the cover image your vision or Ian's? How did that 'commissioning' process work? Plenty of back and forth or did Ian nail it first time?
I sent Ian a few ideas, some thumbnails and reference images, and he said he’d try to do ‘something different’ for me. Ian knew a little of the Orzel story already, in particular it being in Dundee for a while for a refit. A week or two after commissioning Ian he sent me a pencil drawing of what he had in mind and I was quite happy for Ian to work his magic.


The comic is on Kickstarter now and it's tearing through its stretch goals (which is great to see) what were your reactions when you saw that?
There was a great reaction to Raid on the Forth last year, and I realised there was a much bigger appetite for war comics than I’d expected.  I didn’t know how the reaction this year might be, considering the current Coronavirus situation - many people are delaying their Kickstarters because of it, but the response so far has been tremendous. I wanted the book to be out for the 80th anniversary of the Orzel’s last patrol, which is in May, so that’s why I decided to do the crowdfunding now. I’m very pleased with how things are going.


Are you getting a lot of 'repeat customer's from your last Kickstarter?
Yes, I think there were around 140 backers last year, and many have returned to back the Orzel campaign. There are a lot of backers from abroad, particularly the USA, and also a few from Poland, which I guess shouldn’t be surprising.


Are there any more local war stories that you'd love to tell?  
I’m always on the lookout for stories, either to turn into a comic book myself or to inspire a fiction story that I might pitch to Commando (a few of my scripts have been commissioned and will hopefully be published later in the year). The story I’m considering at the moment was one I heard about when I went to Montrose Air Station Heritage Centre to do a talk on ‘Raid on the Forth’. They had a display there about a St Bernard dog named Bamse who came to Scotland on a Norwegian ship that had been drafted into service at the beginning of World War Two. Bamse seems to have had all sorts of adventures during his time in Scotland, and I think it’s a story worth telling in a comic book.

Colin - thanks for your time

Heads - Spiral of Lies; Rik Jackson talks!

I won't be at True Believers comic festival this weekend but I wanted to mark the event in some way - as luck would have it friend of the blog Rik Jackson was in town so we caught up...


'Heads - spiral of lies' - give us the elevator pitch
Three girls in giant animal heads are committing crimes all over London and private detective Steve Datsun is tearing himself apart finding out why. He’s just hunted down a client who was kidnapped by a sinister doom metal band who have been inciting mass suicides and is now determined track down La Trin, the underworld kingpin he believes is the golden thread to all of these despicable activities. While his police friend questions the recovered kidnap victim Datsun corners La Trin and discovers an unnatural surprise as all secrets prepare to be revealed.
It’s the forth issue in the Heads! mystery and the web of deception is spreading at an alarming rate. I’m currently writing issue five, which will close this story arc.

It's live on Kickstarter now - how's it doing?
It funded in the first 24 hour, so I’d say its doing pretty well! Each Heads! Kickstarter that I’ve run has set a new record for me one way or another. Issue three gave me my highest number of backers, which I’m very proud of as backer numbers climbing on a third issue is very rare. This time round I hit the target so quickly which totally took me by surprise. (you can back it here)


2019 was a busy year for you comics-wise - you put out, what was it, 3 comics? 4 comics? For anyone who's missed out on these what did you produce and where can people get them?
I actually released four books in 2019. Issues two and three of Heads! were released, sticking to my release schedule of getting an issue out every six months. I did my first ever Inktober this year and compiled the sketches into a book. I decided to do my own theme and went for horror icons, so I got to draw characters from my favourite horror movies, like Michael Myers, Killer Klowns from Outer Space and Critters. And I also released Three Panels Of What?! which is a mini comic collaboration with my son, Dylan. All of my comics are available from rikjackson.bigcartel.com

Do you have conventions that you're planning on attending this year?
I’ll be at NICE in Bedford this autumn and hope to return to BAM in Bath if they’ll have me (Rachael and the team curate the exhibitors to get a good range and rotation of talent). Both of these events were excellent experiences for me last year so I’m keen to get back to them. I’m planning on hitting an MCM or two. I have three kids so the longer comic cons are sometimes hard for me to get to, but maybe I can make a family weekend of it.

For anyone who backs this Kickstarter when do you expect issue 5 to be ready to go?
The plan is an issue every six months, so I’m aiming for August 2020 for the fifth and final issue of this story arc. It’s going to be a challenge though. When I released issue one I has nearly finished issue two, so I had a huge buffer to play in. But issue three was a beast and Spiral Of Lies has been an unexpected challenge too, so I’ve burned my buffer! But at NICE last year I promised punters I’d be back at the September 2020 event with the final issue, so I can’t let them down.

You contributed to 'The whore chronicles' anthology comic - any more plans to work with other collaborators this year?
That was such a great project to be part of. It was a very difficult piece to do. If you’ve read it you’ll know that most of us were asked to draw three pages of four panels which portrayed a working girl sitting in a chair speaking to camera. Sounds easy, but its actually very tricky to keep so much continuity while adding subtle changes to each panel as the story plays out. There’s some great artists in there and I’m humbled to have my name on such a talent-filled credit list.
I’m going to be continuing work on Unfortunate Tales, which is a horror webcomic strip published on the Attack From Planet B website. Site owner Ken Wynne writes them and I’m on art duties. He’s great to work with and it’s a brilliant art challenge for me. Because each strip riffs on a classic VHS horror movie its like getting a surprise commission to do every month!
My friend James Clarke is doing colour work on some Heads! pieces. He’s designed and coloured the comic cover, coloured the stretch goal print and is making me some promo images from my line art and concept pieces. He’s new to the comics scene and I hope to see him doing more comics colour work as the year plays out. I’m really impressed by his skills so will definitely be working with him on some new strips later this year.


You've worked with your son on a couple of comics now - that a fairly unusual arrangement - how does that dynamic work?
Yeah, I suppose it is! Dylan is twelve years old and wanted to give comics writing a go. So we worked together on a four pager for last years Little Heroes Comics Anthology. He’d worked on play scripts at school but never a comic script, so we studied some comics to find a technique that worked for him. He actually dissected a Nick Prolix strip at one point by writing a script for it so he could get used what he needed to write to make a comic script work.
The idea for Three Panels Of What?! came about when we started setting each other three panel challenges at comic cons. Dylan helped table with me at most of my conventions in 2019. On the train journeys and in quiet moments at the events we challenged each other to come up with three panel comics. Dylan would write three panels of undirected dialogue which I had to interpret with images, then I would draw him three images that he would have to write dialogue for. The result is never what we expect and has a subversive humour to it which we’re really proud of.


What Kickstarters are you currently backing or looking forward to?
I just backed Atomic Hercules by Tony Esmond and Adam Falp. What a great combo – those two are bound to come up with something insane! The 77 looks awesome as well, if you are into retro 2000AD style awesomeness. There’s a new Penned Guin collection running at the moment which is well worth a look, and in a slightly more mainstream arena I’m quite taken with Jimmy Palmiotti’s Creator Owned Heroes Collection.

You ca back 'Heads - Spiral of lies' right here, right now
Thanks for your time Rik!

Rok the God Kickstarter ends this Friday

Still mulling over whether to back the Rok the God Kickstarter (here) but want even MORE bang for your buck? 

Never fear! John Wagner is here to explain all... 

We've been chided by backers for not offering enough options - Kickstarting is a steep learning curve for this old dog - so here are some optional add-ons to Rok your Socks!  I'm told you just add the extra cost onto your pledge and we sort it out at the survey stage.  Hope so.  I'm relying on you to know what you're doing, cos I don't!


ADD AN EXTRA £4 for postage UK,  £7 Europe, £10 RoW

Rok of the Reds graphic novel                   £20

Rok the God graphic novel                          £20

Rok the God graphic novel (BOLLAND cover)    £35

Signed John Wagner Judge Dredd script           £25

BRIAN BOLLAND A3 Poster                                    £15

SIMON BISLEY A3 ROK Poster                               £15

Nick Prolix chats Slang Pictorial and more

Comics creator Nick Prolix was kind enough to take some time out from his busy schedule pimping the Kickstarter (here) of his new issue of Slang Pictorial to talk to me about, well, everything...

Hi Nick, what can people expect from this new issue of Slang Pictorial?
Issue 4 contains a couple of firsts for me, namely a collaboration in which I invited a writer to pen a story set within my world of "The Sheep And The Wolves" and which I have then drawn which was a really interesting experience. As well as that, due to the fact that I switched printers last year, I am now able to include a colour strip within the comic for the first time, and so I've drawn a little a short auto-bio comic of sorts which again was a lot of fun! On top of that you've got the continuation of both the "Atlas Unfettered" and "The Sheep And The Wolves" storylines in directions that will show some of the characters having to deal with a bit of the emotional impact of some of the recent events that have unfurled.



Is this a world that you could re-visit for ever or do you really hanker after, for instance, doing a series set on a spaceship?
I think I have said elsewhere that initially I saw "The Sheep And The Wolves" as the first chapter of almost a cross-generational saga that would see characters age and develop over decades and that's still the plan, even if I'm no longer entirely set on sticking with that initial chapter-by-chapter structure. In this issue for example, you'll see a flashback to Jimmy Angel as a teenager in the 1950s as well as the return of the "Little Wolves" strip which shows an even younger Jimmy in short trousers. As for other projects I am always toying with ideas for something completely different and to be honest there are actually some mechanics I've already built into the format of the anthology that could allow for a spot of genre-bending. One example would be a fantasy/historical action comic version of one of Vic Corinth's "sword-and-sandal" flicks in a way similar to Beto's "Fritz" movie comics. Ultimately I see myself making comics set in Bouveray Town NE1, for as long as I can hold a pen and I would be very happy to be even tangentially considered as working in the same tradition of monomaniacal cartoonists as Stan Sakai with Usagi and Jaime Hernandez with Maggie and Hopey.


I love the ligne claire style and that you do your own lettering - how important to you is doing your own lettering? Why do you think more people don't do it?
Thanks! It does surprise me that people seem to really dig the lettering and it's often something that gets commented on a fair bit. As with almost all of the formal/aesthetic choices in the comic it's a mixture of period nostalgia and a love of the craft of old-school comics production, mixed with a healthy dose of looming deadline crunch and pragmatic workflow decision-making. I want "Slang Pictorial" to look and feel like a newspaper strip from the Fifties or Sixties and so the tools and techniques I use are pretty much those that classic cartoonists from the period would use, i.e. dip pens and an Ames Lettering Guide, to zip-a-tone dot-patterns and a ton of white-out for mistakes! Hand-lettering is something I had to learn from scratch and you can see my development from issue 1 to 4 and I am still developing and growing as a letterer with each comic. Why don't more people letter by hand? Partly it's because of the shift to an all-digital workflow for a lot of artists as well as the availability of so many excellent digital fonts that can now emulate hand-lettering even down to multiple variations for each individual letterform and which can now give digital lettering a very organic and natural-looking bounce. Again for me, it's wanting to situate what I do within a particular comics tradition and the cartoonists I most admire, like Seth or Dan Clowes, hand-letter and that gives their work a real idiosyncratic and immediately recognisable quality which is something I want my comics to share.


You got funded on Kickstarter in less than 90 minutes - how surprised / overjoyed were you by this?
It's always amazing when you hit that target and you can breathe a huge sigh of relief knowing that the project is going to get funded. Slang Pictorial #3 hit it's target in under 12 hours and that was huge for me as it was my first ever time on Kickstarter and I really had no idea how it was going to go. I won't say with #4 I was specifically trying to hit that 90 minute target but I did do a lot of work before hand in an effort to try and beat that previous result. So I set up a pre-launch mailing list, did a lot of Instagram and Twitter promotion to start hyping up the launch as well as offering a couple of Early Bird only rewards for backers who pledged on the first day. The point of doing all of that was to try and get us over the line as quickly as possible, but the fact that the project funded as quickly as it did is ultimately all down to the fantastic folks that jumped on board and did such a great job sharing and spreading the word.


What tips would you give anyone thinking about running a Kickstarter campaign? Is it about having a low target? Great rewards? Great stretch goals?
This is only my second Kickstarter and so I don't know how much advice I can really give other than look around at what works for other people and see what you can steal that will work for you. I am a big believer in looking to the creators whose work you admire and whose success you wish to emulate. The other thing I would add is think about your page structure and your promotional material and try and have as much of that prepped before hand as possible, the less time you have to spend producing new artwork for stretch goals and updates during the campaign is more time you have to actually focus on promotion and spreading the word about your project. 


People have hopefully seen your work in the Awesome comic - how did your collaboration on that come about (with writer Tony Esmond?) 
That really was a matter of hearing Tony make a passing reference to a 1970s set heist comic he had written during one episode of The Awesome Comics podcast. I just tweeted him saying that sounded like something right up my alley so he sent me the script to read. I loved it and told him so, and just said that if he didn't yet have an artist onboard that I would love to take a crack at it and the rest as they say, is taxidermy! 


What was the last comic YOU backed on Kickstarter?
Again after hearing the cartoonist interviewed on The Awesome Comics pod, Glorious Wrestling Alliance by Josh Hicks. 


You've managed to get progressively more and more comics (or comics collaborations) out there each year - do you have a target that you set yourself about how much comics work you want to get published each year?
Not a specific target as such other than I have tried each year to put out more than the previous year and so far that's worked out.  My goal this year is to Kickstart two issues of Slang Pictorial and so I am hoping to come back to crowd fund issue 5 in the autumn/winter of this year. Two issues in a year will be a big step in terms of productivity and output but ultimately I would love to get to a point where I can publish Slang Pictorial on a regular quarterly or tri-monthly schedule. Alternatively I can envisage putting out a larger, weightier version of Slang Pictorial annually, more like the Franco-Belgian album style publishing model. Again, I've not yet decided which route to take but either way, the plan is to be putting out more quality story pages every year for sure!

Thanks for your time Nick
