Top artist Alan Burrows – best known for his work on Eagle and Red Dwarf – has provided a cover for the latest issue of the science fiction and fantasy digital comic 100% Biodegradable (Issue 9) – available now.
The latest issue of the anthology features stories of fevered space dreams, ancient Egyptian heresy, overly-dedicated postmen in apocalyptic wastelands and one lost soul slowly crossing the treacherous plains of Yomi, the latter adapted from a Japanese myth by Paul H. Birch in a story entitled “A Hope In Hell”.
Charging into action behind an in-your-face painted cover courtesy of Alan, 100% Biodegradable is published by Biomekazoik and edited by Dave Hailwood (Toxic).
