It's great to have ye here, laddie-me-boy! (Or laddie-me-lass.)
This is our first blog, so I suppose I'd better tell you a bit about ourselves and our current projects.
20,000 Leagues is a comics publishing company based in the garden county of Wicklow, Ireland, and is run by Al Nolan (me) and Ian Whelan.
We set it up to publish our comic "Sancho", Iano is the writer, I co-write and draw it. It's up to issue 3 so far and was nominated this year for an Eagle Award (we lost out in our catagory to that little fecker Asterix. Ah well.)
Ian and I are currently working on a new comic "Señor José Maria Garcia's Carnivale of Curiosities", an anthology of stories set in the Sancho universe. It'll feature a cover by Herokiller's Declan Shalvey, a couple of stories by me and Ian, as well as stories from Ed Berridge and Bryan Coyle "Dublin Nightmare" and the Guys from Monkeys With Machineguns "The Rubberneckers" as well as a couple of surprises. It'll be released for Rob Curley's SubCon in Dublin on 29th September.
At the same time I'm working on a comic called "Sancho : The Parliament of the Djinn", which promises to be an 80 page behemoth -- I'm taking my time with this one!
Apart from that, we publish another anthology semi-regularly, "Soft Boiled", which is in magazine format.
