This weekend Scarifyers writer Simon Barnard and artist Simon Gurr will be desperately flogging the new Scarifyers comic book at Kapow! in Islington. Come and say hello and they'll foist a comic upon you, and probably try to sign it.

Part one of The Scarifyers comic book is available to pre-order now exclusively from the Cosmic Hobo shop. Written by Simon Barnard, illustrated by 2000AD artist Simon Gurr and wrapped in a lovely cover from Rainbow Orchid auteur Garen Ewing, the first issue is released on May 21st.

Today we recorded the first episode of brand new audio series 'Vince Cosmos: Glam Rock Detective.' A stirring tale of glam rock, Martians and grumpy dwarves, it's written by top author Paul Magrs, stars Julian Rhind-Tutt in the title role, and will be released later this year.

The seventh Scarifyers adventure, The Horror of Loch Ness, is available to pre-order now. Released on June 7th, it's a tale of Nessie hunters, demonic bed sheets and things that go bump in the night, and stars the late, great Philip Madoc.

Bit of recording news... We headed into the studio to record the eighth Scarifyers story yesterday. It's called 'The Thirteen Hallows,' it stars Torchwood's Gareth David-Lloyd, and has lots of hard-to-pronounce Welsh words in. And it'll be released later this year.

We're heading for sunnier climes, back on March 5th. Any CD orders will be sent out on the 5th, downloads will be available immediately as per usual. Adiós!
