About Me

The Midlands Comic Collective is a group of aspiring artists, writers and other such deviants based in and around Birmingham UK, all of whom are aiming to break into the comics industry - by force if necessary.

Our first anthology title, MC2 (that's meant to be pronounced "Em See Squared", by the way), will be released in November of 2006 and will be the bestest best present you could buy anyone this coming Christmas, be they child, spouse, elderly relative who thinks comics begin and end with The Beano or abnormally intelligent pet gerbils.

Visit our NEW website at: www.comicscollective.co.uk

Pre-order your copy of " mc2 " from here!

Check back regularly as this profile is updated with art samples and news relating to your soon-to-be-favourite bunch of comic geeks.

My Interests

Comics, graphic novels, trade paperbacks, newspaper strips, webcomics, serial visual storytelling.

I'd like to meet:

Connoisseurs of fine graphic art the world over. And a monkey ninja.

Books:

Being comic fans and would-be creators, we are legally obliged to say that all works by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman are the very nectar of the gods, distilled into print so that mere mortals may know of them.
