Zarjaz 14- Cover.

Well, I can now reveal to you all the beauty of a cover that decorates the mighty ZARJAZ 14!

The astoundingly talented Colin MacNeil once again graces us with his talent. This time Colin brings Devlin Waugh with him for his first Zarjaz cover.

Zarjaz 14 is officially released on March 1st, but I'll have copies for sale at Cardiff the week before for those lucky enough to see me there!

This is Colins second cover for us here, as he was the artist that covered the first issue we produced, Zarjaz 05.

This is also our 10th issue, which by my thinking means that we've put out more of these than any other publisher!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

2012 is going to be a big year for us here at Dogbreath and Zarjaz. We will be releasing Dogbreath 25 and 26. Zarjaz 15, 16 and 17 and at the end of the year plans are already afoot for a very special title. All this and you know we'll have some astounding covers, too.

Thanks to all who have supported us over the years, and here is looking to many more!

Zarjaz 13: Cover!

Yup- That's STAZ JOHNSON drawing Rogue Trooper for Zarjaz. Awesome, isn't it? Zarjaz 13 will be on sale after November 1st, and the cover will also be available as part of  the Wallpapers section of the blog.

Staz was asked a while ago to provide the cover for Zarjaz, and he was only too pleased to take part, except that he didn't like my original choice of cover strip. After a very brief moment to think it was decided that Rogue Trooper would be the perfect candidate to let Staz flex his considerable artistic muscles!

Here is the line work for the cover Staz kindly supplied. As the more eagle-eyed among you will have noticed, Staz based his work on a classic cover by Frank Frazetta; however, he also missed out on the wraparound aspect of the Zarjaz covers. That is why the cover for the issue is cropped as it is.

A huge thanks once again to Staz for providing us with one of the strongest Zarjaz images we've had.

DARK JUDGEMENT 2- Cover.

I know Rich over at Everything Comes Back to 2000AD has already put this out there, but here is the final crop of the print version for Dark Judgement 2 by Conor Boyle. The cover will also be available in the Wallpapers section of the blog later this week. This years special will be on sale from November 1st, and to celebrate we've arranged for a limited run of Dark Judgement 1 to be available.

For a limited time only- there will be a special 2 pack in the webshop featuring both issues of Dark Judgement for £3.50 plus postage. There will also be copies on sale at conventions for as long as they last.
