Accent UK to attend the Comiket event.

Colin and I have a table at the Comiket event in The Great Hall, Bishopsgate Institute in London on the 12th November.
We've done a few of these now and they really are different to any other event that we attend in the UK. Much smaller and more personal, with a lot of time available for both creators and punters to chill and chat about all manner of things.
You can find out more about the event over on their website at www.comicafestival.com,hope. Hope to see a few of you there, especially those living in or around London.

In other news, the ZUMBIS GN is moving ahead at pace, check this out http://twitpic.com/70asbx.

Wolfmen on their way to Lush Comics iTunes store.

I've just sent The Wolfmen and The Fall Of The Wolfmen over to Justin at LUSH Comics, so they should sit nicely alongside Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ? in digital form very soon.
I can't wait to get them both on my iPAD.
Justin is still busy and I believe that Apps now exist for Android ...

ZUMBIS!!! Extra bits...

Gal Editora have started to release snippets of their upcoming reprinting of selected bits of our ZOMBIES anthology, to which they are also adding some stories from Brazilian creators ... more a collaboration than a reprint really ... you can find out more here.

Accent UK gets advert in Kick Ass 2 no. 4

Well, it's been quite the week for us at AccentUK.

Due to a favour done by Andy Bloor for Mark Millar, Mark has given us a page advert in Issue 4 of Kick Ass Vol 2. It's great exposure for us and we're really grateful to both Andy and Mark. We're lucky that Andy is such a talented designer type person ... as well as damn fine artist. In other news, Owen Johnson (writer up My Maker & I, which is a fabulous full colour one shot that is in production, with artwork by none other than Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Dan Duncan and colours by Matt Soffe) has been interviewed in Issue 1681 of Comic Buyer's Guide. It's always a challenge to fit everything into these interviews and mention everything but Owen does a great job. You can see more over on Owen's blog.

PREDATORS has hit the shelves of UK Comic shops, I've seen it with my own eyes, so if it's not in yours and you want to pick up a copy then have a go at the store manager. Sales were a little down on the books that have come before it, due I think to it clashing with DC's relaunch of all of its titles, so chances are you might not find it very easily. We will have copies for sale at the Leed's Thought Bubble event but it would help us out a lot if you'd get your comic retailer to get some copies through Diamond Distribution.

ZUMBIS !!!!

We'll, following on from PREDATORS, and with ZOMBIES 2 pretty much completed, the next Accent UK will actually be the Brazilian edition of our first ZOMBIES anthology.

Mauricio over at Gal Editora, the company that translated and published the Brazilian edition of Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ?, has selected tales that he feels will best appeal to the Brazilian reader and has been busy getting these translated over the last few weeks. Under a new cover by a Brazilian artist which Andy Bloor has given the same overall feel that he gave to Steve Bissette's cover for the UK edition. Mauricio was keen on bringing onboard some well known Brazilian creators to help generate interest, which seems a good idea.

This edition will also have a number of new tales from Brazilian contributions and also Marleen Lowe's story collaboration with her brother Stephen from ZOMBIES 2.

I'll keep you posted on progress, the full list of UK contributors can be found in a previous posting.

PREDATORS is getting good feedback from the contributors who have now received their copies, and the Small Press Big Mouth podcast has reviewed it already, you can hear what they think of it in Episode 33.
