Today's the day, yes?

Yes folks... Marvel Heroes #33 is now available from all good UK Newsagents. And unless you've been hiding under a rock for the past couple of months, you'll know that this issue marks the return of the legendary Marvel UK character Death's Head, in a battle with the ever Incredible Hulk.

I can't put into words how proud I am of this issue... as I've spoken about in previous posts on this blog, this is a story I always wanted to see. The fact that I got to DRAW it is a dream come true... part of me likes to think that this story was waiting for me to draw it.

Today is honestly the proudest day of my career. It's going to take something pretty darn special to top this.


Marvel Heroes #33 from Panini Comics... out now. Don't miss out, yes?

Another interview, yes?

The upcoming Marvel Heroes Hulk vs Death's Head strip certainly seems to be making a bit of noise in the comics world.... what with the recent Newsarama feature, where Newsaramas Vaneta Rogers interviewed both myself and writer/legend/Death's Head creator Simon Furman about the aforementioned strip.

And now, iFanboy.com is featuring an interview with yours truly... where I talk about not only the upcoming Hulk/Death's Head strip, but also why I'm a fan of both characters, plus my work both past and present (future remains to be seen).

I'd like to say a very BIG thank you to Gary M. Miller for not only taking the time to interview me, but also run a review of my original Hulk vs Death's Head strip (which you can read here). Gary has gone out of his way to help get the upcoming strip noticed, and I really appreciate it. Thanks Gary... you're a star, yes? I highly recommend you all go follow Gary's excellent comics blog Delusional Honesty... where he talks all-things Hulk, comics, and Hammer Horror! And you can read the iFanboy interview here (which features an exclusive colour preview of the upcoming Hulk/Death's Head strip!)

And don't forget... Marvel Heroes issue 33 is out very soon, on March 23rd at all good UK newsagents. Not long now, yes?

Newsarama interview, yes?

Check out this Newsarama interview with Simon Furman and yours truly... where we talk about the upcoming Incredible Hulk/Death's Head story which will appear in the upcoming issue of Marvel Heroes (issue 33... available March 24th from all good UK Newsagents).
It's great that this strip is making news... fan feedback has literally been incredible, and I want to thank everyone for all the kind words and support. At this past weekends Cardiff International Comic Expo (which I will discuss in an upcoming post), Death's Head was shown a LOT of love... I spent most of the day drawing sketches of the freelance peacekeeping agent for fans!

Cardiff Comic Expo for my good friend Patrick Montgomery.

Getting to draw this strip is a dream come true. As a fan of both characters, it's a story I always wanted to see, but never dreamt would ever happen... much less get to draw. But it's nearly here folks...

Death's Head is back, yes?

And the Hulk going to be there as well......
