WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE’RE BACK!!
Please, don’t let us keep you...there’s NEWS waiting!...and LOTS of it too...
The last time we saw little Malcolm he had inadvertently opened a doorway to...hmm?...where?...
Pull up a chair and prepare to dive into the second volume of the babbling bunny. If you’ve enjoyed the ride so far, you’re gonna LOVE this madness...
The advent of a new world has brought about a slight change in format, as Malcolm Magic 7 becomes the first Blink Twice publication to be presented in glorious techni-black-and-white-and-colour®! Lawrence has cooked up an artistic storm and the results are simply breath-taking.
You can order MM7 online NOW, and we’ll be stocking the stores within the fortnight.

AUGUST ART AUCTION – GET READY TO BID!
Ya gotta love Ebay. Okay, so you don’t HAVE to love Ebay...but you can at least admire its charms. Well, okay, even if you hate the dang thing you’ve got to appreciate that it’s given the Blink Twice boys the opportunity to launch a new annual event.
Welcome, furballs and fleabags to...BLINK BIDS!...or BID TWICE! (whichever you prefer)
Yes indeedy, starting this August Lorenzo will be giving each and every one of you the ONLY opportunity to get your paws on an original Lorenzo comic board. There won’t be another chance until Summer 2006 so you’d better be ready, you’d better be steady, and you’d better GO HERE to take a peak at this years star prize (as featured in the 2nd Collected Volume of Malcolm Magic).
More updates coming throughout July and August...
LORENZO’S PORTFOLIO – ONLINE AND LOOKING GOOD!
If the mere thought of winning a slice of Lawrence’s fried gold art sends shivers up your spine (in a good way!) then you will be delighted to hear that his online portfolio is now LIVE!
Oddballs, Sketches, Action, Hotrods...just some of the sections you can browse, each filled with image after image after image of Lorenzo creations. Some you may recognise, a lot will be previously unseen gems. This portfolio will be ever-expanding and new images will be posted frequently.
Sound good? Agreed...but what are you waiting for folks?...
GO HERE for an eyeful of the good stuff!
BLINK TWICE ART SUPPLIES – COMING SOON!
The golden rule at Blink Twice is simple. Work hard with passion to create beautiful things. It’s a mantra we live by and the definitive advice we give to every new and upcoming creator we meet. But sometimes a little help can’t hurt. And that’s where Blink Twice Art Supplies come in.
The first product from our new range IS the indispensable BLINK TWICE COMIC BOOK BOARD. Formatted to perfect US comic page dimensions, clearly marked for layout and bleed areas, light-box-friendly and good looking to boot, this is the essential tool for all graphic artists.
Simply put, this is the best quality, best value comic board available on the market...and it’s delivered straight to your door!
GO HERE to pre-order your goodies! More art supplies coming soon...keep your eyes peeled...
COMIC SHOP SIGNING – DATE CONFIRMED!
Lastly, but by no means leastly (leastly? that’s not a word...) we are proud to announce that Lawrence and Robin have been invited to do a signing in the excellent Area 51 comic shop in Bristol (230 Gloucester Road), where we they will have the honour of sitting next to a genuine UK comics legend, Paul "Jack Staff" Grist. They’ll be signing comics, sketching, chatting about forthcoming projects and generally having a giggle. It’s all part of a bigger UK Independent Comic event, and you can read more HERE!
If you live in Bristol, or can get there, please make a bee line for Mike Allwood’s store...who knows WHAT treats we might bring...
Laters...
