Time Breakers: a five-issue series published in 1997 by Helix (an imprint of DC Comics) written by Rachel Pollack and illustrated by Chris Weston is being collected for the first time in English & crowdfunded via the site Zoop.

Angela Attenborough is a young, bored housewife of the 1950s... but her life is about to change beyond her wildest dreams! She's about to be recruited by a future version of herself to a secret society of time-travellers known as The Time Breakers. Comprised of members drawn from the past, present and future, The Time Breakers are dedicated to the creation of time paradoxes, which they believe are instrumental to the creation of life itself. Their efforts bring them into a deadly conflict with The Knowers, a rival time-travelling cult who zealousy resist all forms of meddling in historical events.

If you want to be notified when the crowdfund starts please go to

Events / Free Comic Book Day 2024
26 January, 2024, 09:31:42 AM
Looking at the list for this year there are some interesting ones including Asterix Olympic Special but interestingly there seems to be no 2000AD/Rebellion title shown. Have they decided not to do one this year or is it not being promoted yet like the DC ones

Classifieds / Staz Johnson artwork sale
28 December, 2023, 08:58:48 PM
On X (Twitter) Staz Johnson has just posted this, I have a shit-ton of old artwork that I need to get rid of. Mostly working drawings, layouts, sketches etc. Would anyone be interested in buying this stuff for a nominal fee to pay for my time (eg £50 for 10 pieces). It'd be a random selection I'm afraid. Let me know.

News / Send your love to Ian Gibson
10 December, 2023, 10:23:16 AM
As we know Ian Gibson has been ill for some time and has been regularly in and out of hospital, after the message from his family below now is the time to pop over to his Facebook page and let Ian know how much his work has meant to you and share your stories of Ian to help keep his spirits up

**Update from the Vigil of Ian's bedside**
It looks that Ian is in the last hours before he starts his new adventure.
Luke and I have been reading all your messages and memories on all of the groups, private messages to luke and I, and on Ians goodbye post. You have given us strength and made us smile. We have found it very comforting. We have taken turns reading out as many as we can to Ian.
Ian has previously expressed many times how amazing you all are and how much he loves you all. He is comfortable and has settled to have a rest. He is saving up the energy for his new adventure amongst the stars and to join Halo starting a new chapter in their story. I have a sneaking suspicion that they will find that they live forever as true legends never die.
Love to you all, we are eternally greatful.
