DB21 Pimpery 07

Strontium Dog- Short Busts by Dunk! Nimmo brings us two (count 'em) tales from the life of Johnny Alpha, and two of the more unusual cases he has worked on. How unusual? Well if you by a copy of the comic you'll find out, wont'cha?

A final preview of Fr1day: Looking for a reason by Steven Denton & Chris Askham

DB21 Pimpery 06

From, Strontium Dog-Lunacy byAlec Robertson, Bolt-01 & Richmond Clements. This is one of those things I don't like. When I sort these precviews I'm full of witty comments about them- and some of them actually make it to the blog, however- I hate doing this for my own scribbles. I wish I'd picked a panel that was more representative of the actual strip. sigh...

Forbidden Planet!

In my continuing quest to actually get organised enough to make a real go of this comics lark, I have for the first time, managed to get the Forbidden Planet stock away to them 'before' the launch convention. With a bit of luck copies of both Dogbreath and Zarjaz 'should' be available to buy before the end of the week.

These copies will be available till the end of March 2010, after that they are returned to me.

One other thing to note is that due to increased stock vigilance- there are going to be fewer copies of the comics available through FP. If you go to buy a copy and it isn't there- ask the staff if they stock it and mail me if they have run out.

Shopping Update! Now you can use the blog!

Greetings Earthlets!

Further to the problems being experienced over at the FQP Webshop, I have now set this very blog to be able to act with Paypal and accept payments. Nothing has changed from the FQP shop, but this allows sales to be carried out whilst the main shop is repaired.

Simply look down the blog to find the issue you require (which surely should be only the new issues, you have had plenty of time to buy the old one's) and click the button underneath.

Happy shopping.

Z08 Pimpery 02

Fr1day: Looking for a Reason by Stephen Denton and Chris Askham shows that this version the oft maligned G.I. really does have good tales to tell. A complete story in 18 pages. You know it ends badly for someone!

FQP Shop problems- Website in trouble.

It looks like things are worse than we thought in the website dept. The upshot is that we now do not know how long it is going to take to get the FQP website back into action.

BAH!

In the meantime I'm going to start posting images from the new comics up next week to whet your appetite and hopefully I'll be able to start taking pre-orders via paypal.

Thanks to everyone who has gotten in touch with us about this.

Lauching Imminent! ZARJAZ 08!

None of you will be surprised to know that Zarjaz 08 is about to launch, but did you know that we've got a new strip featuring Siadwell Rhys- The Red Dragon, of Zenith fame?

This image is by Strip Artist Kevin Levell and was done a loong time ago as part of his warm up for the strip itself.

As for what else Kev is working on- simply check his blog for snippets that may well be of interest.
