Issue 1 Cover Design

I'm hoping to print the first chapter of Giant Rhinos In Space at the beginning of March. There is a chance they will be available at Birmingham MCM Comic Con, but if not I should definitely have them for Bristol Comic Expo and London MCM Comic Con in May. 

Don't forget there are 3 new pages of the comic going online every Friday afternoon! http://giantrhinos.smackjeeves.com/

Hourly Comic Day & London MCM Comic Con 2014

 

Hello! It's been a busy weekend, the Giant Rhinos In Space webcomic went online on Friday afternoon and then Saturday was Hourly Comic Day! I wasn't well enough to go out yesterday, but I had a lot of fun drawing silly comics about my day. You can read them all online here complete with links to songs or anything else interesting.

We also got a new table confirmed yesterday. We will be at London MCM Comic Con in May. I'll be sharing a table with Sarah Fogg and you will be able to find us in the Comic Village. I'm very excited for all the events we will be attending in spring. Confirmed events so far are ...

• Midlands MCM Comic Con - 15th February
• Birmingham MCM Comic Con - 22nd-23rd March
• BCExpo - 10th-11th May
• London MCM Comic Con - 23rd - 25th May

Pip

Pip is a lot of fun to draw. I try to draw her in the most comfortable clothes I can think of because that matches her opinions and personality. She usually ends up looking like a festival attendee.

The Heat by Jungle

When I'm drawing at home I listen to a lot of podcasts and radio. If I hear a song on BBC6Music I really love I write it on the side or back of my drawings to look up on the internet later. This drawing has a note for 'Crueler Kind by San Fermin' but I can't find a steaming site with that particular track. (I'll try and link it in a later post if I ever find it) This is Jungle instead, one of my favourite bands from the Sound of 2014 list. I really love music videos that feature dancing.

Don't forget Giant Rhinos In Space is launching at 12noon (GMT) on Friday 31st January 2014!

Sisters and Friends

(L to R) These are Carl's sisters Nat, Em and everyone's friend Julie. When I went with my sister to see Haim last year there were lots of friends taking selfies while they were waiting for the band to come on. Their faces lighting up in the dark when the flash goes off.

Arcade Fire - Sprawl II 

I've not posted many music influences recently. I've been listening to a lot of Arcade Fire recently. Their big songs seem really great to listen to over new year. It's like their music brightens up the winter months.
