The
Primordial Edition
Hi
Everyone,
Well,
whilst Bentley continues to write up his NEW series of Blogs, I thought I would
share a FANTASTIC piece of news with you guys. Anyone following any of the
FaceBook Pages or Twitter Feeds may have noticed me mentioning and promoting a
TOP SECRET Project…
Well
NOW we can announce it to the world, as our website is now live at last and
will be followed in November with the release of a Brand New Comic Book from
Wizards Keep Publishing alongside some merchandising. Well what’s it called I
hear some of you saying…?
The
Logo above was the giveaway – YES we are bringing back The DINOSWORDS and now
you can all take a look at our five main heroes; Arnie, Errol, Clint, Brontson,
and Sly.
If
you were a kid in the 1990s or indeed a collector/reader of comics back then,
then there is the slightest chance you may recognise these guys from those dim
misty days in the past – not quite as far back as the Cretaceous Period from
whence our five Dinosaur buddies hail from, but it is a while ago now.
Many
folks have asked about the characters and something said the time was right for
their return to our present day world.
The
Primordial Edition is a 44pp part colour – part black and white comic magazine
with a full colour cover. There are a total of 38 black and white strip pages,
which reprint the first 12 episodes and a further six episodes, with never before seen pages,
which sort of tie up the storyline or should I say bring us to a juncture which
allows us to turn the present stories into a work-in-progress for a finale to
this current storyline and the start of a brand new direction for the
characters.
Created
back in the eighties with the help and input of, my fellow conspirator, Writer,
Editor-in-Chief, James Hill the five BIG guys found a short stay and temporary home in
the pages of Triffik comic and in actual fact where the lead story upon the
launch day at BBC Radio 5 studios on the Johnny Walker show.
The
direction was not quite what we had envisioned and although it was a humorous
concept it ended up in a humour comic, which did not quite match up to our
original vision. However, they had found a temporary home at least, as I say.
James
and I are really excited about this comic, which comes with NEW cover artwork,
some new digital colour, new lettering and word balloons and a newly revised script.
It also, as already mentioned, allows everyone to see the entire story as
produced back in the day, although still unfinished.
We
hope you enjoy the website, comic book and all the other merchandise waiting in
the wings at the moment, as much as we have in producing them for you all.
There
is also a Fans Page for FAN ART and letters to the Studio or indeed the Dinoswords
themselves on the NEW website. There are BONEus prizes to be won too, so go on check out the
website and see what all the fuss is about.
The OFFICIAL LAUNCH of The DINOSWORDS Primordial Edition will be at MALTACOMICCON over the weekend of Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th of December in Malta.
As
always we look forward to hearing from you all with your views.
Until
next time, have fun!
