Silence is Golden...
...NOT TODAY THOUGH! There's simply too much to say!
The 8th instalment in the ongoing adventure of everyone’s favourite drunk bunny has arrived. Featuring more ACTION, more GIGGLES and more DANGER than ever before! Fikov, Chester and Reggy are on trial for a crime they DID commit while Malcolm, Pygmy, and Bright Eyes discover there are worse things in Nodsuf than not being able to find a bar!
Once more the glorious techni-black-and-white-and-colour® pages produced by our resident scribbler have been wowing reviewers across the globe. TheFourthRail.com had this to say:
"Lawrence Etherington’s colour work is astoundingly good…a level of detail comparable to guys like Geoff Darrow (‘The Matrix’ trilogy concept artist/Shaolin Cowboy) but with a slightly cartoonier look that really suits the book…"
Come see for yourself with our trusty ‘try before you buy’ preview section over at studioblinktwice.com – you won’t be sorry!

MOON! SPACE LOG AND 3rd SKETCHBOOK – BLAST OFF!
We are very proud to announce that the much discussed MOON! Space Log, our series companion to the forthcoming full colour series, is fully fuelled and ready to launch in Brighton. Oh yes indeedy!
68 pages of character, vehicle and environmental art; background information; hero profiles and teaser plot lines are topped off by a prologue tale to the story proper. It's all you need to start getting VERY excited!
Well perhaps not ALL you need. As is now traditional in the world of Blink Twice, a brand new convention means a brand new convention-only sketchbook! The third MOON! sketchbook will be available ONLY to those folks that take a trip to the seaside (the other two have sold out and are now IMPOSSIBLE to find!!). Speaking of which…
BRIGHTON COMIC EXPO – THIS WEEKEND!!!
Saturday 19th –20th November (this Saturday!) marks the start of a new date for the comic calendar as the first Brighton Comic Expo kicks off in style. 100’s of special guests, publishers and independent creators will be on hand to demonstrate why comics are so much fun.
The Blink Boys will be there in force.
Bob is currently priming himself to chat away about our current titles, upcoming projects and everything comic-related. Lorenzo will be discussing the art of Blink Twice and sketching mountains of limited edition pencil/pen or ink treats for those lucky folks at the show. Mark will be showcasing the latest demo version of the Malcolm Magic Computer Game.
GO HERE...for the official Expo website – featuring all the news and full details for the weekend.
EVENTS GALLERY – BRAND NEW, ONLINE AND LOOKING GOOD!
Aaaaah, the perfect warm up to a new convention…and a great reminder of some of the show’s we’ve done so far. Added to the FUN STUFF tab over at studioblinktwice.com is the all-new EVENTS section; a photo gallery detailing everything from conventions to Christmas parties. Laugh at our hair…giggle at our clothes…mock our silly, silly faces…then note how our stands just keep getting better and better! Oh, and you never know, you might well spot yourself in one of the crowds!
Well that should be enough to keep you all smiling for a while. Hope to see some of you folks down in Brighton where the candyfloss is cheap and the weather is alwaaaaaaaaaaaaays fine*.
(* The Sussex Tourist Board would like it to be known that the ‘Weather’ is not always ‘fine’.)
