I’ll be at the London Comic & Small Press Expo on Saturday March 12th, sharing a table with the doughty and dependable Peter Vine of Hard Graft. Table 55, straight ahead of you and a bit to the left as you come in.
Doors open at 10am and close at 5pm, I’ll be there all day with comics, minicomics and posters for sale. Come and say hello (and buy stuff). 
Some backstory for those who don’t know: Minecraft is a game which has pretty much eaten my face in recent months. You may have heard of it – I made a little kobold skin for it a while back, f’rinstance.
Coe’s Quest, then, is a series of Let’s Play videos on YouTube in which a guy called Coe wanders around having blocky digging-crafting-building adventures and falling off stuff. It’s fun to watch while I’m drawing the comic, as enjoying the game in this vicarious manner staves off the cravings long enough for me to do actual productive work, rather than building big blocky castles that look pretty but don’t get the comic drawn.
A few weeks ago the series hit 100 episodes and Coe put out a call for fanart, to which I responded with this piece of epic high-fantasy silliness:
It’s now the title image for Coe’s World, a new multiplayer Let’s Play series he’s doing with a bunch of other Let’s Play people. Pretty awesome.
Greetings from the distant future… the year 2011! I’m pretty stoked for what the year holds, and am aiming to make it an awesome one.
Things have been unsurprisingly busy over the holiday period, as I suspect has been the case for a lot of people – visiting relatives, being visited by relatives, eating, drinking, being merry, that kind of stuff. While very much enjoyable, it’s taken its toll on my drawing schedule so Dark Places took a bit of a break between Christmas and the New Year. Matters are settling down now, I’m back at the drawing board and updates will resume on Wednesday January 12th. Put it in your diaries.
If you check the sidebar over on the left you’ll see that The Silver Chain is now available in the Dark Places store. This chapter introduces Adar the hellion and Grakarr the gnoll as they are captured by the Wild Hunt and forced to fight for the amusement of elven nobility.
Also available is the Kobold Propaganda poster, for all your motivational inspirational needs.
