Hallowscream 5 Cover - Sneak Preview

Unable to contain my excitement any longer, I've decided to post a special sneak preview especially for the few thousand* viewers of this blog.

* Figure may or may not be accurate**
** It's bollocks!

Specially created for the 5th edition of everyone's favourite indie horror anthology, this piece of original artwork was produced by the most excellent of horror artists, The Gurch. This is nasty!

The Gurch is a stalwart of the horror comics scene, most famous for his disturbing imagery in the 80's horror comic Gore Shriek. Hopefully this is the beginning of a long relationship bewteen 'The G' and Back from the Depths.

A pleasant surprise in my Inbox

I had this lovely image sent to me today from artist Pete https://twitter.com/thepxd that shows his pencils for the first page of a 5 page script I've written called Home Is Where The Heart Is, set to appear in this year's Hallowscream.

Pete's drawn some lovely tight lines and I have high hopes for a top notch strip when it's finished. Hopefully he'll have all 5 pages drawn and inked sometime in September. It's then over to me for lettering duties.

This story is kinda based on the little old lady I purchased my house from, just with an evil twist.
