From AccentUK:
“At the funeral of a mysterious and enigmatic gentleman, newly-wed Zelda Mist mourns for the husband she never knew, for Thaddeus Mist kept a life-time of secrets. In her grief she approaches each funeral guest to discover details of the strange life he lived.
“As they each tell the tale of Thaddeus Mist their flawed memories and individual imaginations shape their stories into mundane fictions and fantastical truths. These accounts disgust, scare, entertain, and inspire her in equal measure, but it falls to Mrs. Mist to decided which version of the tales was the one lived by her late husband. So… Who On Earth Was Thaddeus Mist?”
AccentUK has posted a full press release for this book on their blog, with full details and a list of creators, which you can read here. My story is Where On Earth, and is being illustrated by the capable hands of Jack Tempest (sample art above). He has some challenging things to draw, and he has my thanks, condolences, and very best wishes.

Not at all sure how much I can say about this project yet. It’s a multi-creator graphic novel from AccentUK. I was honoured to be asked to join in the fun. My second draft script wasn’t returned to me, which is always a good sign. More information to follow…
This weekend is the Bristol International & Small Press Comic Expo 2011, taking place in the Mercure Holland House and the Ramada City Inn hotels. Full details on the venues, events and opening times are here.
Andrew Cheverton and Tim Keable will be signing and sketching at Table 71 in Hall 3, as well as selling the new issue of West - Stray Bullets, the guest artist anthology - along with previous issues and the hardcover Vol I collection. Also available for sale will be pages of original art from both creators. Click the map below to see where we are.

Throughout the Saturday, we will have a selection of AccentUK books on the table, including The Wolfmen, The Fall of the Wolfmen, Man of Glass and the Eagle Award-winning Whatever Happened to the World’s Fastest Man?
