Black Jack!
So I’m pretty close to redrawing a chapter of Black Jack for the hell of it, much like Urasawa’s Pluto, or Brandon Graham and Emily Carrolls Archie comic.

Part 2 of 2
Hot of the back of Storm Chasers release. This was my first real experience working with a writer. A strange difficulty curve, but it got much easier when I decided what I wanted to do with it.
Comics.
Yes! This is your last chance to subscribe for more, but Storm Chasers has come out and I don’t hate looking at it so it must be good?
Anyway, more books to come and I’m sure they’re all awesome.
So, as the Youtubers say, leave a comment, like and above all SUBSCRIBE
This is the last day I’m gonna spam your feed with this!
Ken’s book is out, everyone seems to be loving it. We’re really happy with the print job etc etc
I’m taking it down the offer after today, so time to sh*t or get off the pot…In our continued effort to showcase the range of individual, personal and unique narrative art produced in Ireland, we’re delighted to announce the first ever Cardboard Press Subscription.
Between June and September we will publish 4 new comic books from some great Irish comic artists. Each book will be back and white and range from 32- 40 pages in length. The titles are:
Storm Chasers by Ken Mahon (shipping mid-June)
A Hibernian in Hellas by Maeve Clancy (shipping mid-July)
Pictorial Histories of Leider by Gus Hughes (shipping mid-August)
Stone Hewn Sky by Paddy Lynch (shipping September)This subscription offer will stay open until June 30th 2014 so don’t delay!
The subscription is €15 postpaid in Ireland (international subscribers get discounted postage). For this, you will get all four of our Summer 2014 comics, an exclusive pin button/badge only available to subscribers and ‘Baldoyle’, a new 12 page zine from Paddy Lynch (shipping with the July 2014 comic).
We will only be doing a limited print run of each book and this is a fantastic opportunity to get all them delivered right to your door as they come out.
Get some great summer reading sorted now!
Storm Chasers by Ken Mahon now exists in the physical realm.
Copies will begin shipping to subscribers tomorrow, and there’s still time to get on board if you want to take advantage of the full Cardboard Press Summer Subscription offer which, including a discount on buying the comics (it comes to about 25% when you figure in shipping), will get you one of these sweet badges above!

Guys. My book.

A crappy photo of a portrait of beckycloonan's Hunter from Wolves because I wanted to draw it and it happens to be her birthday too!
Working on the grey tones for the new Storm Chasers pages, and this happened.
So, I dunno… pre-order/subscribe to see the finished single page of this 40 page story?
Hey! I haven’t posted an update on Tumblr about my webcomic in a while. Well, it’s still going, and I’m back after a 3 week hiatus after TCAF.
BUT I can’t remember where I left off here on Tumblr, so here’s a link to the start of the chapter
I really need to sort out my archive…
It’s high time I talked properly about this.
So Storm Chasers is getting a printed edition, courtesy of Paddy Lynch and his Cardboard Press imprint.
Now, I said way back when that Storm Chasers was digital-only, but then it sold dreadfully, and another option presented itself to get it back on its feet. So I took it, because gosh darn it, I’m proud of it. Maybe the most proud, but it was Paddy himself who insisted on Storm Chasers.
This version in particular will be a print exclusive EXPANDED edition, featuring 2 chunks of story I omitted from the original release because of reasons. There’ll also be some editing on occasion.
Now, I don’t know much about the other stuff coming out(We’re all still working on them), but if I ever knew anyone in this country who KNOWS comics, then you can trust that the other books will be fantastic. And most likely a bargain at the price.
So what’re ya waiting for?
Let’s soft launch this baby. You should check this out and subscribe…(because I’m involved, and you like me, don’t you?)And now for something completely similar…
I’m still doing these, it seems.
Someone asked if I was gonna make comics about this guy.
Maybe some day, but now, all he gets is these… Let’s call them one-panel-adventures.
Oh yeah, his name is Gilbert Marlowe. He exists in a confused state of me never knowing what story I want to tell with him, because he’s like the stock character I shove into every concept until it forms into what it’s meant to be.
And 2 of these are references to Book of the New Sun, by Gene Wolfe.
So, while I’ve been at TCAF, this is what I’ve been working on. I’ve been posting these on my Instagram, to prove I’m not slacking!
