I’m beginning as Executive Editor for Insight Editions’ Film, TV & Entertainment division!! Starting full-time in September, however working 2 days every week from now, as I tie up my earlier commitments. I’d prefer to thank Raoul Goff, Tara Catogge and Vanessa Lopez for this chance.

Insight Editions is an imprint of Palace Press International, a e book publishing firm based mostly in San Rafael, California. They have centered on illustrated books on images, music, and widespread tradition. But courtesy of the late Drew Ford, they moved to their very personal comedian e book line. Insight Comics started by republishing European comedian books for the American market, in addition to exploiting different IP. Books embody Elves by Jean Luc Istin and Kyko Duarte, The Baker Street Four by JB Djian, Oliver Legrand and David Etian, Zombies by Olivier Péru and Sophian Cholet and Siberia 56 by Christophe Bec and Alexis Sentenac.

You can congratulate him right here. But he additionally had an previous undertaking to plug, of which I’ve simply acquired my copies.

As you realize, I left Soaring Penguin Press again in January, however there have been two books we had been working that I used to be very pleased with and so glad they’re now out and available for purchase.

Firstly is Martin Simpson’s wonderful norse legend, #NORD. If you are a fan of all issues #Viking, #Loki and #Nordic then that is the e book for you. Martin’s artwork is gorgeous, the story is authentic and engaging, and he mixes up graphic novel and movie e book components elegantly. And the manufacturing values are to die for!

Then there’s Mark Stafford’s hilarious, poignant, and typically downright disturbing, #SalmonellaSmorgasboard. It’s a set of all of his uncommon strips, art work, and designs collected from over 20 years of slaving away as a jobbing cartoonist. I (like many individuals) have been singing Mark’s praises for a long time and it is sensible to see this beast of a e book gather a few of his finest work collectively for the primary time.

Both are important studying.

So what are you ready for? Head over and purchase them at: https://www.soaringpenguinpress.com/shop/?swoof=1… OR out of your native comedian store (like Gosh London or David’s Comics), whereas shares final!
