The Great Beast Rises…

Thursday, April 19, 2012

0 Comments

Adam Cadwell drops us a line with some absolutely cracking new: he and Marc Ellerby are launching a brand new British Indy comics publisher, Great Beast. It will be “for professionally self published, creator owned comics”, with an unashamed embracing of pop culture (and why not?) influences and happy to take in comics for all [...]

Marc Ellerby’s website went down a while back, but now he’s rebuilt it, including lots of great comics as he did so. Notable inclusions; The Phonogram B-side he did for Phonogram: The Singles Club #1: And he’s coloured up some Chloe Noonan strips. Here’s something from Solipsistic Pop #2 …. and possibly the most Chloe [...]

Chloe Noonan Monster Hunter Colour Special By Marc Ellerby So far we’ve seen three issues (#1, #2, #3) of Ellerby’s disinterested monster hunter with the smart mouth and iffy attitude (just look at the great cover – attitude in spades!). And nothing has convinced me that I wasn’t absolutely spot on with what I said back [...]

Chloe Noonan fan-art fun….

Perusing Ellerby’s website the other day looking at his Polar Opposites strip (here), I realised I’d never drawn your attention to the various bits of Chloe Noonan fan art he has up there…… Joe pointed out the great Philippa Rice one here, but how about these ….. Oh, just realised, you may not know what [...]

Marc Ellerby finished the  Chloe Noonan Colour Special a while ago, and to fill your days of empty Elleby-less-ness, decided to release some unseen, made for a children’s pitch that never came off, episodes of his Polar Opposites strip… “What’s the deal? Take two penguins with different ways of doing things, one’s nice, the other…not [...]

Marc Ellerby’s Chloe Noonan is a firm favourite here. A funny, quirky adventure series that has been great fun across the three issues and various bits and bobs so far…. I’ve gone on (at length) about Ellerby before – whether it’s his autobiog strip Ellerbisms (see here), previous issues of Chloe Noonan (Issue 1, Issue 2) [...]

The evolution of an Ellerby….

Very interesting blog post up from Marc Ellerby here. He’s currently looking at collecting his Ellerbisms strips (with the great working title of “Paraphrased Antidotes” in a nod to Radiohead I presume) and has been analysing the ways he’s drawn his image over the years. In the past I’ve said this about Ellerbisms: “Anyone reading [...]

Chloe Noonan 3 – Still no powers. Still great.

Monday, January 31, 2011

Chloe Noonan Issue 3 by Marc Ellerby Oh, it’s about bloody time. Issue 2 was back in 2009. Granted, it’s not Ellerby’s fault. This issue was meant to be out in time for Thought Bubble in November 2010, but as a very obviously disappointed and pissed off Marc told me then – his printer had [...]
