Woolley Jumper #8

It's Woolley Jumper time again, this week part one of 'The Citadel of Silence' bursts onto your screens with lots of dynamic triangle panels and crazy action. It originally appeared in #18 of Mondo, the first issue of 1994.Sporting an amazing biker/metal cover from Tom Carney, also below, the issue featured 'The Hitman' by Lee Davis and Mike Kinsella- a strip I've earmarked for restoring and colouring to be republished at some point. My own Fred Fortune in a story entitled 'The Dull Day' where Fred is so bored he walks out of his own strip in disgust(!). Part 8 of 'Copter Cops' by Matt Banwell and Noel White, a strip that started in one of the missing issues. If anyone out their has any stray copies of Mondo #s 1-5 (1992), 8, 9 & 10 (1993), 33 (April 1995), and 37 (August 1995) please drop us a line so we can return them to the Mondo archive. We'll get them scanned and straight back to you ASAP with a gift of some sort. Also in #18 was Negative Man scripted again by Matt Banwell with art by Chris Doughty. A prose article by Mark Yarwood about the Noir genre called 'Hard Boiled'. Mark is now a crime author with a huge stack of books to his name... check them out on Amazon if you like. You can also find Mark on Twitter @MarkYarwood72. Next Lee Davis and Paco Garcia's epic superhero sequel 'Hyperion II' continued as did 'Man XL' also written by Lee Davis with art by Steve Jones. The issue was capped with a few pin-up pieces including a very Schwarzenegger like rendition of the 'British Bulldog' character by Cavan Ark.

Mondominium #2 EEK!

Here's a quick classic from the archives by the late. great Mondo superstar artist Hadyn Walker... Hadyn did tons of stuff for early Mondo before his untimely death in 1999. Hopefully at some point we'll be able to republish more of his great art fully restored and coloured. This is very much of it's time when Sin City was THE comic of the hour... in Mondo circles anyway.

We're Back!

 Apologies for the lack of posts for the last few months. A change in my job from working early mornings (5AM start) to now working through the night (10PM start) threw a small spanner in the works for a bit, but I've adjusted and adapted to it now. I worked nights for about nine years at the same company before moving to early mornings, now back on nights again. Sometimes everything just goes round and round in circles.

Anyway, 'City of Tomorrow' is coming together well, I'm nearly done on page six, and I'll be back on the weekly schedule here...

Thank you for your patience and please come back next week for some new Funky Punk fun.

Woolley Jumper #7

 

It's Dangerous Dan back for Part Two of 'Garbage Can Killer' by the legendary John Woolley. Originally published in Mondo's Christmas 1993 issue (#17) which sported the comic's first colour cover. At the time almost all small press efforts in the UK were black and white photocopied zines, so it was quite unique. Taking it's cue from the Death of Superman and Batman: Knightfall epic stories huge at the time, the issue featured the death of one of Mondo's staple superheroes, the British Bulldog, who of course comes back to life at the end. Mondo's editor, Lee Davis, also included the free gift of some tissues for Bulldog mourners to have a good cry!! 

CGUK ROUND UP-

You can still get your copies of The Rabbi From Another Planet's Comics Bonanza!!! Now Indemand on Indiegogo.

The Imperium and Biblical - TWO Incredible Comics available now!

Check this out-

The Imperium

A love letter to the classic British telefantasy of the 1960s.

Created by Tzvi Lebetkin and Dominic Racho - The Imperium takes iconic characters and deconstructed them to their roots, reassembles them in, and then dumps them all into a super group with a stonking, mind bending action and archaic adventure.

AND...

Biblical: Bible Stories For Atheists, Creationists, Rationalists and Rogues

An incredible epic tale spanning centuries, and fiercely Biblically accurate but with no preaching or polemics agenda - Just a great story well told!!!

This brand new edition, with a revised and rewritten ending harkens from the great tradition of Vertigo comics - in this hard edged tale encompassing the Dove and the Raven from Noah's ark, King Nimrod and the Tower of Babel, and the book of Jonah - tied into one seamless narrative.

Back it here-
