Hey Everyone!
There has been a bit of a buzz in the lead up to and following the launch of MULP: Sceptre of the Sun issue #2 at Thought Bubble last month!
Here's a handy re-cap of all the links where people have spoken about our comic!
Comics Anonymous: MULP #2 preview and Creator Interview
In the pre-lude to the MULP #2 launch Matt and I were interviewed by the lovely Gary Watson for Comics Anonymous about our creative process.
Gary also reviewed Issue #1 and Issue #2 on the Comics Anonymous blog!
"The glorious character designs from Sara keep each of them individually recognisable which is no mean feat for a cast of mice and the muted tones in the colouring seems to emphasise that pulp theme which I’ve always been a sucker for. "
"The glorious artwork keeps the narrow streets & caves claustrophobic, the wide landscapes suitably epic and the face off’s between both parties just as action packed & full of energy as they need to be."
Thank you for all of your support Gary!
Downthetubes.net - Six Questions Creator Talk
Matt and I were also interviewed by Jeremy Briggs for Downthetubes.net about our work and creative influences.Like Gary, Jeremy also wrote a kind review for the downthetubes blog of Issue #2 in the run up to it's launch at Thought Bubble.
"Sara Dunkerton’s lovely art rises to the challenge of a whole new civilisation in the Andes, whose buildings are rather less iconic and well-known than issue 1’s pyramids and Egyptian statues, and it is noticeable that there are more larger panels in this issue than before which perhaps shows a growing confidence in her artistry."
Thank you for the lovely words Jeremy!
