RiP Chris Achileos


Ah crap. Just read Chris Achilleos has died. I loved his work on the Target Doctor Who books back in the 70's. His style was the inspiration for the cover of PARAGON #28. RiP

PARAGON ANNUAL 2022

 When I was growing up back in the 70's and 80's I always got a couple of annuals for Christmas; one from the DC Thompson stable, such as The Broons or Oor Wullie and one from the Fleetway fold; 2000AD, Battle, Eagle or Tornado. 



The annuals had quite low budgets, consisting of reprints and lesser known artists and yet we loved them. It's that vibe I have tried to recreate here with a touch of reprint, text stories and all new stories, all featuring the regular recurring characters from PARAGON.

Back the Kickstarter here YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO!

Kickstarter ending!




You could grab a copy of the 72 page graphic novel, Icarus Dangerous, on the Kickstarter but  be quick! It ends tomorrow! 




Wednesday 17 March 2021

3 days to go on Kickstarter!

 

I called it PARAGON because I honestly believe there is no better small press comic out there. Others come and go. Others may get the plaudits but none match the consistent quality of this long running anthology. If you don’t believe me, try it. Just once. Go on.

PARAGON #27 on Kickstarter

 With less than a week to go for the campaign to run, time is running out for you to back the latest issue! I've already started prepping by ordering in a supply of the 72 page graphic novel, Icarus Dangerous, as the sequel starts in #27. If you'd like a copy of this fantastic tale of the boy who flew too close to the sun (and was rescued by aliens) you can get your hands on one by choosing the Dangerous Option on the new Kickstarter.

Also on offer are the Wotan T-shirts as shown below, depicting the Norse god as seen in episode 2 of the Tintin-esque Brahms and Liszt - the two warring composers turn amateur detectives to solve a murder mystery involving... Hans Christian Anderson?! It is not to be missed!
You can also get your hands on some fantastic original art by regular contributor Scott Twells. So if you want a piece showing Jikan the time travelling, demon hunting samurai or Spencer Nero, the 1930's British agent obsessed with all things ancient Roman, booting a Nazi leprechaun up the arse, or indeed any of the PARAGON stable of VERY weird heroes, back the arty option!
You can even get issue 27, a back issue, the Icarus graphic novel, original art and t-shirt for the ridiculously low price of just £30 - just back the Whole Caboodle!
But be quick! Time is running out!
