The Temple APA Issue Fourteen – a fine assembly of creative talent – is now available to download as a totally free PDF file, containing contributions from the likes of Dave Hailwood, Paul Eldridge, Simon Mackie, Tony Suleri, and Malcolm Kirk, who also provides the cover.
While much iof the issue rae sample pages and work in progress (including some impressive pin ups from Tony Suleri), Paul Eldridge has contributed some strips and Simon Mackie’s “A La French House” is a particular treat, as cartoonists battle over a script in a wine bar. Malcolm Kirk’s “Ham Dare” pin up, mocking a certain 1950s space hero, is also great fun.
You can download it from Dropbox, (immediate download on clicking this link) MediaFire or view online at MyEbook. The PDF file size is 13.26 MB.
The Temple APA is a showcase for amateur and professional creators who are active in the UK comics scene. If you’d like to contribute or just want more information, check out the Temple blog or like them on Facebook…
