Subject: HEEEEEEEEEEEERE’S MALCOLM!
Date: Wed, 20 October 2004
"Wickedly dark humour and lovely artwork combine to make Malcolm Magic a small press book that really can stand head and shoulders above most efforts."
- Comic World News (www.comicworldnews.com)
So What's Hot to Trot with everyone's favorite bunny? Let's find out....
MALCOLM MAGIC - ISSUE
5
(Enjoy your free 4 Page preview HERE)
"You can fish the comic out of the sewer, but you can't drain the sewer from the comic!"
I didn't think it was possible. I never dreamed when I sent Lorenzo the script for Issue 5 that he'd be able to craft a 24 page gem that could rival the sumptuous Issue 4...but he's only gone and done it.
Action. Gags. Songs. Snakes. Fun and Frogs. What more do you want? A bonus strip written by our very own webmaster-chef Mark Clements? Fine! Have it your way.
You neeeeeed this...you waaaaant this!
Get to a comic book store OR get online OR get in touch...and get your copy today!
THE FIRST COLLECTED EDITION - AVAILABLE NOVEMBER
Everyone (er...that's Mark, Lorenzo and myself)...<ahem>...is very excited to announce that the First Collected Edition of Malcolm Magic will be available to purchase via the website and selected comic stores from November. The ultimate Christmas present gathers together the first three adventures of our punch drunk bunny in one sumptuous volume. Adopting again the principle we've applied to our comics - that all BLINK TWICE products should feel as good as they look - we've crafted a simply gorgeous 68 page book featuring new artwork and an extensive colour art gallery.
We will be launching this highly sought after product at the London Comic Festival and the Bristol Comic Expo (more details of both these conventions later) so if you simply cannot wait to get your hands on it, come find our stall!
SECOND MALCOLM MAGIC LIMITED EDITION SKETCHBOOK!
Way back in the distant past of May you might remember that we attended a very successful convention in Bristol. There we were touting a little limited edition gem of sketchbook to every fan and friend who purchased Issues 1, 2, and 3 of our debut title.
So successful was this offer that we're bringing it back.
YES! That's right folks! Every fan who attends either of the forthcoming London or Bristol Conventions and spends more than £10 at our stall will find themselves walking away with a free copy of the ultra limited 2nd Sketchbook. Featuring all new sketch madness from the mind of our warped pencil-smith Lorenzo, this is a rarity...
...remember the mantra...ebay gold...ebay gold...
BLINK TWICE COMPANY WEBSITE LAUNCHED!
After much prevaricating about the bush we've finally got ourselves sorted and are proud to announce the launch of www.studioblinktwice.com. Featuring company news, an 'accurate' release schedule, Bob's Blog, detailed information on all the guilty parties responsible for this nonsense, reviews, and links to all our products/projects, studioblinktwice.com is all set to become your one-stop shop for the most up to date info. I will be posting regularly on the Blog chatting about everything under the sun, and will ensure that I announce all further developments to both this site and the every expanding malcolmmagic.com.
That should keep you folks happy for a while!
BLINK TWICE DIARY - CONVENTIONS!
At both the following conventions we will be holding a very special raffle. No hampers or tins of Quality Street to win HERE ladies and gents! Oh no. Just a signed and framed print of the quite stunning wrap-a-round cover from the as yet unreleased Issue 6! Wow!
Saturday 23rd October - Lorenzo, Mark and Robin will be hosting a stall at the 2nd Annual London Comic Festival @ The Holiday Inn London Bloomsbury, near Russell Square (www.comicfestival.co.uk). You will not be able to miss us folks as we're in the hallway you walk up to get to the main room. Look for the 8' by 6' Malcolm Backdrop (now THAT'S big!) and the three enthusiastic salesmen!
Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th November - Lorenzo, Mark and Robin will be hosting a stall at the UK Comic Expo in Bristol @ The Ramada Plaza Hotel, Redcliffe Way (www.comicexpo.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk). Same fun, different city!
Phew! I think you've all earned a nice cup of tea and a chocolate bourbon for that!
Laters,
Bob & the Blink Twice team
