My mum is having some kind of clear out and sending me photos of old school stuff of mine.

It's true, I did bloody love Star Wars and I hadn't even seen Andor at this point.

Bloody love Andor.

Some of my favourite panels from Skin Police 2 #3.

This was maybe my favourite issue to write as we delve deeper into character back story and what the government has been up to.

Brilliant work by @danielgete.bsky.social with beautiful @wordie.bsky.social colours.

Love @danielgete.bsky.social's cover for Skin Police 2. 3.

After seeing the rough I asked Daniel to make Noxxon much bigger so rather than climbing out of Eckis' mouth he was going to have to rip his jaw open. So good.

Great job on the colours from @wordie.bsky.social.

Pig on pig violence as we build the island itself as a character
October 30, 2025 at 1:09 PM
Also, here we have the crucifix being shown as a sign of protection in the first panel before showing it failing a priest in the next panel, which is something you'll see reoccur in these opening pages...
October 28, 2025 at 5:16 PM
Page 3 has some of my favourite individual panels of Chris' from issue 1 and I especially like our introduction to Father Miller, my favourite of the main characters to write.

New newsletter breaking down the thought process behind the opening six pages to our new Comixology series EXORCISM ISLAND, which is what we initially included in the pitch that went out to editors.

I'm also having some fun in the dialogue with what is happening in one scene being twisted or almost replied to in the next.
October 26, 2025 at 4:09 PM
Page two we drop down to three scenes rubbing side by side still sticking with the mirroring technique down left and centre:

Gigi reflected in the window

A conversation between two people

Straight onto the two faces

And again the final panel is about progress forwards.
October 26, 2025 at 4:07 PM
Once again we have the clear mirroring in the first two panels and then we break from it in the final two panels on this page and Chris elegantly has the characters walking the reader into page 2, which I'll give some thoughts on a bit later!
October 25, 2025 at 4:08 PM
Again here the mirroring is clear on 1 and 2 but in 3 and 4 Gigi has landed in front of the Cardinal and is landing on the island.

A little aside to appreciate that lovely BUMP sound effect from Chris. He so naturally weaves SFX into his artwork.
