OUT NOW: Von Hoffman’s Invasion!

Two plucky young boys are all that’s stopping a genius Nazi scientist’s plans to use giant creatures to attack Britain’s village fêtes and national monuments in revenge for World War Two!

Tom Tully and Eric Bradbury’s Von Hoffman’s Invasion is possibly one of the weirdest, most madcap series British comics has ever come up with – a kind of 1970s British kaiju in a post-war landscape, mixed with genuine peril and funny capers.

A slice of utterly bonkers classic comics from the heyday of the British weekly paper industry – it has to be read to be believed!

OUT NOW: Brink Book Two

Humanity is on the brink in the second critically-acclaimed volume of smash comics duo Dan Abnett and INJ Culbard’s atmospheric space-noir, Brink!

Her past as an Investigator seemingly behind her, Bridget Kurtis is sent to the under-construction Galina Habitat as a security consultant. With a skeleton crew of engineers, architects and security personnel, construction is running behind schedule and Mariam Junot herself (the acting-CEO of Junot Corp) has arrived to find out why.

Amid rumours of haunting and disappearances, Kurtis uncovers a sect conspiracy that may be more insidious and far-reaching than she ever imagined. Either the claustrophobic life in the space Habitats is driving humanity insane, or there are influences at play beyond any human understanding!
