2012 – Worlds End

A look to the future

Hi Everyone,

Well lots of folks have been asking since the launches last year of Worlds End – Volume 1 what would be the next stage of the plans for Wizards Keep, so I thought I would address those matters here for all of you that have been wondering.
The main order of the day for me is to ensure I hit the second volume in the series running and that is just what I am currently doing.

The final draft of the script was written a few weeks ago and I am presently working on the pencils for Worlds End – Volume 2. The scripts for all the various bits and pieces in the second book are all written now too. I decided that the book would be better served by working in this way with the rest of the books so that all the textual pieces are finished before the drawing starts.

It may have seemed a little slow news wise this last couple of months, but here at the Keep it has been anything but quiet. There are all sorts of things to check out and there will be some other things to look out for in the not too distant future.

Wizards Keep Website
Regarding the Wizards Keep Website, you will find a new link for the Worlds End Website on the Side bar under the Shop section. Coming very soon will be a revamp of the front Homepage area, as we try to make it more creative looking until we change the site completely at some stage.

When you click onto the Wizards Keep website at present you see a central column that at the moment has a lot of textual content. This will soon be changing to one which will have hyper-linked banners and buttons to re-direct everyone to different areas of the website and to other associated networks and the Worlds End website from the moment you land on the Wizards keep Homepage.

What we are trying to do is keep it simple, but pleasantly artistic to look at.

Also on the Wizards Keep and Worlds End websites coming over the next few months will be new products in the Shop section – they include:

Worlds End – Signed and Numbered Limited Edition Portfolios.
Each one comes in an illustrated envelope and contains six prints.

Worlds End – T-Shirts
Several Different Designs

Worlds End – Collectable Convention Posters – MaltaComicCon 2010
