Available to order now from Avery Hill Publishing is the British Comic Award nominated series, Deep Space Canine, produced in partnership with comics powerhouse Comic Book Slumber Party.
Life in space can be tough – and when you’re balancing a hydro-herb habit, mysterious intruders and an impending reunion, things get even tougher.
Luckily, Space Commander Greasy is not alone, and with the help of her best robot pal, Cybernetic Unit Normally for Troubleshooting, she (and her ship) might just get through the next 24 hours in one piece!
Edited by Hannah K. Chapman, and with contributions from Katriona Chapman, Lucy Haslam, Lize Meddings, Honey Parast, Becca Tobin, Alice Urbino, Beth Wood and Jenn Woodall, CBSP: Deep Space Canine explores strange new worlds, discovers wild new civilisations, and solves the age old problem – what to do when you’ve lost your best pair of knickers.
Founded in 2013 by Hannah K Chapman and Donya Todd, who were joined in 2015 by Alice Urbino and Robyn Pulford, Comic Book Slumber Party is an international girl gang of comic creators making comics and anthologies as bad ass as they are.
CBSP organise events and workshops and publishing books and anthologies featuring exciting comic talent. Their titles include Hotel World by Becca Tobin; Greasy’s Guide To Nookie by Lottie Pencheon, Chloe Moore, Lizzy Stewart, Eleni Kalorkoti, Wai Wai Pang, Jess Milton, Julia Scheele and Sarah Broadhurst, Mathilde Vangheluwe and Justine Sparlat; and the British Comic Awards Nominated Fairytales For Bad Bitches, featuring Lize Meddings, Sarah Burgess, Jenn Woodall, Alice Urbino, Emma Carlisle, Enoki, Lucie Ebrey, and Stephanie Ayres.
