I’ve put a few pieces up for sale at the following link. Various prices depending on the complexity of the pieces, and I may put up some more if they prove popular.
A quick question….would you fine folk out there be at all interested in purchasing original Angels artwork (i.e the B/W pencil art actually used in the comic) for a fair price? Because, as you can imagine, I have reams of drawings taking up space in my house, going all the way back to 2002.
Let me know what you think in the comments below, and depending on the level of interest, I may run some Ebay auctions.
A while ago Kyle Newmaster, a highly talented composer based in LA, provided the music for Mitsabi’s Dream, which enhanced the look and feel of the movie to a huge degree. Recently I listened to a piece of Kyles music called ‘Soaring’, which he composed a few years ago as a portfolio piece and I was taken by how beautiful it was, and especially how well it suited one of the comics lead characters, namely Franchesca Martines, or Kid. Kid loves to fly, and the whole piece brings to mind gliding gracefully over the green hills of France, or even though space.
I got in touch with Kyle, and he has very kindly agreed to officially allow ‘Soaring’ to become ‘Kids Theme’, which I think is one of the coolest things ever. Have a listen, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
And don’t forget to visit Kyles site, for more audio goodness, and thanks again Kyle for a very special gift 
…That hansagan was a prophet.
Happy New Year and welcome to the launch of Angels 2200 Part 2: Homefront!
It’s been good to have a break away from the strip, but it’s also good to be back. I’d also like to introduce and thank Jana Hoffmann who has illustrated the first 5 strips and will continue to collaborate with me on many strips through the comics run.
For the foreseeable future, Angels will only update once per week, on Fridays. I realise this will be a disappointment to some, but between us me and Jana have prepared nearly a years worth of backlog, at a rate of once a week. I realise that one of the biggest frustrations for both you as the audience and myself as the writer/artist was the irregular update schedule that plagued the end of the last comic towards its finale, so I would rather be able to guarantee at least a year of regular strips once a week than try to deliver two and fail.
So once again, welcome to the new story, one that will take the Icebreakers to some very unusual and challenging places, both physically and mentally. It’s been a lot of fun to come up with the story, I hope you have as much fun reading it.
