New Comics On Sale This Week in the UK – On the King’s Road, with Judge Dredd and Doctor Who in tow

Judge Dredd: Dead Zone

Right. I’ve just been down to Lancaster’s First Age Comics to have a look at the new comics, only to be told that while Titan’s Johnny Red is selling well there, more people would have bought  if “they had only known about it”. Which makes it even more urgent that we continue our mission to spread the word about new comics so you do know about the things you’d rather not miss out on…

As usual, our weekly list of new titles is skewed towards British comic creators and publishers, on sale in all good comic shops (and in the case of some titles, newsagents and supermarkets). We make no apologies for this.

Along with the latest 2000AD and Judge Dredd: Dead Zone (which is stunning), top of my reading list this week is King’s Road #1 from Dark Horse (which we plugged a while back), written by Peter Hogan with art from Phil Winslade and Staz Johnson. This marvellous 48-page special includes all King’s Road chapters from Dark Horse Presents – and an additional issue’s worth of story drawn by the new King’s Road art team.

Artist Staz Johnson (Judge Dredd) and colourist Douglas A. Sirois (The 7th Sword) join Hogan to continue this tale of a family on the run from magical, other-dimensional monsters.

Also on the US side, although this week sees the release of the final first series of Arcadia from Boom!, writer Alex Paknadel tells me he’s busy at work on the next – and has several irons in the fire with more new comic projects, which is great news for fans of this hit comic. Keep an eye out for his name.

UK Comics – Newsagents Spotlight

Commando 4890As usual, don’t forget that despite some British publishers lack of faith in full-blown cover to cover comic strip action and humour, there are still comics on sale in newsagents that still delight in bringing you such subversive delights, including The Beano, Commando (latest release intel here), Judge Dredd Megazine, Panini’s superhero titles, Titan Comics superhero titles and VIZ, with great strips also featuring in titles such as Doctor Who MagazineDoctor Who Adventures, Titan’s Doctor Who Comic (collecting their strips from the US format titles) MegaTales from the TARDISTOXIC and many others.

Plus, the wonderful Phoenix Comic is now on sale in many (but not all) Waitrose supermarkets and – at last, selected high street WH Smiths stores – and some comic shops (stockist list here) as well as available on subscription.

Don’t forget Hachette, the British publisher of titles such as Doctor Who: The Complete History and Judge Dredd: The Mega Collection and launched How To Draw The Marvel Way last month, available in all good newsagents.

The part work – evocative of long-established comic creation guides such as How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way, still a handy guide to drawing action comics in my view,  offers a step by step guide on how to learn to draw like the greats of comic book illustration. More about this new title here

Note that you may now have to subscribe if you want to continue buying it as Part Works are not distributed in newsagents after their first few issues.

Have your psychic ribbons and lethal weapons at the ready, for the hunt is on!
