Blüd City Street Fight
A wrestling comic that is not a wrestling comic. I love siege movies and wrestling, and one day thought, what if a professional wrestler had a literal death match to get out of an impossible situation. Luckily, I remembered I draw comics and did it myself. Then, naturally it spiraled out of control and I built a whole world out of it
Professional wrestler ‘Bulletproof’ Jack Stallion is celebrating his retirement match in Blüd City. As Jack is leaving his party, a woman is being abducted in the alley. That woman is the mayor of Blüd City, and only professional wrestling can save them. Jack may be retired, but the death match is just beginning.

ON MARS
Award-winning authors SYLVAIN RUNBERG and GRUN tell a taut tale of hope and violence on the red planet in a deluxe graphic novel set.

Colonizing Mars has become our only option, and the construction of such a significant enterprise has required massive resources and manpower.

Brilliantly visualized by artist GRUN, this explosive sci-fi prison drama by writer SYLVAIN RUNBERG introduces Jasmine to a broad spectrum of characters, factions, and political players who all have different ideas for this New World that is being built. Who is really in control? And can anyone truly claim a planet on the verge of forced evolution?

A TV show that exists entirely inside Alex’s own head.
As Alex battles to piece together his past and free himself from the many hostile agencies who want him as an asset, his malfunctioning mind switches back and forth between what’s really happening and the garish, technicolour espionage-filled world of ALEX AUTOMATIC, meaning he can never fully trust his friends, his surroundings or even himself.
Alex Automatic #6 is a 28 page full colour comic coming this November kicking off the second half of the award-winning Alex Automatic series. It’s a psychedelic super-spy adventure story written by Fraser Campbell, with art by James Corcoran and lettering by Colin Bell.
