The latest volume of Aces Weekly showcases some of the brightest talent from across the globe in an exclusively digital weekly comic art magazine – and its fifth volume, a seven-issue, seven-week run – has just launched.

Published by David Lloyd – the guy who gave you V For Vendetta – Aces Weekly gives great newcomers and industry greats the opportunity to connect directly with their readers to tell any story they want to tell.

For Aces Weekly Volume Five, Batton has created The First Gentleman of The Apocalypse.
