DOUBLE DOSS Mini-Comic

1 September 2009

Today sees the launch of a brand new mini-comic - Double Doss. It's quite tiny, as you can see from the piccy (left). Those squares on my cutting mat are 1cm x 1cm!

Hand-made (well, photocopied) and folded, stapled and trimmed by the cartoonsit. With all original content, these first editions are likely to become rare collectables and might be worth millions one day.

Copies are now on sale in the shop. Look out for new titles in the near future :)
