    Frequently Asked*? – Why does my CV have so much about Comics and Games on it?

    On Linkedin I see near unending advice on how you should laser focus the tailoring of your CV to each individual role you apply for, and yes, I do some of that: I have chunks of content I can add or remove, words I re-order and sentences I re-phrase for each role I apply for.…

  • A Cube of Sea

    A Cube of Sea

    Going back a year or so, myself and my kid contributed two pages to “The Sea… and that” – a Paper Jam Comics Collective Anthology. This was the first post covid/lockdown anthology and probably had one of the smartest covers we’ve had. It was printed in Black and White, but originally created as an A1…

  • The Hexham Heads

    The Hexham Heads

    For the Paper Jam Comics Collective’s 20th Anthology, Mythology and That, myself and Brittany Coxon wanted to make a comic about the Hexham Heads. It was proving something of a struggle since we were trying to tell the reasonably authentic story of the history which Britt had extensively researched and provides links to many sources…

  • Weird Romance …and that

    Weird Romance …and that

    Group effort here – I didn’t contribute much to this Paper Jam Comics Collective Anthology. For the Cover, K Ben Clark did the drawing, and Britt did most of the colouring – I dropped in the font banner design and the background photo. Happy with it.

  • Bad Decisions

    Bad Decisions

    This was my submission for the Paper Jam Comics Collective anthology Bad Decisions …and that. I think we can all agree that some questionable creative choices have been made here. Lacking inspiration, I called the above mess ‘Something Something Fish Quotas’ I did a little design work for the cover of the Comic (which was…

  • Amazing Adventure Comics Machine …and that

    Amazing Adventure Comics Machine …and that

    Myself and Brittany Coxon worked on this framing strip for the Paper Jam Comics Collective anthology ‘Amazing Adventure Comics Machine‘ – our first in full colour, specifically as an all ages comic due to Space Monkey being close to sold out. Intro Pages Some self indulgent things here about the history of the group, I…

  • Food Encounters of the Third Kind?

    Food Encounters of the Third Kind?

    Here’s the comic I made for the Paper Jam Comics Collective Food …and that Anthology. Deliberately trying to be less previous about the rendering here and focusing on just getting something done quick that has a few jokes. I’m pretty pleased with how it worked out and some of the panels are funny.
