Huh. That's so funny. I was talking about your books with my mom a few weeks ago and she suggested the same thing. She said that because it's comics, you may be able to make some money off of it.

Alternatively he will have to seduce a high ranking civilservant, so that he books may be found at every library across the land!

Well, Phantom and Alien fans, there may be a future in store after all!

My publishers, Grimbold Books, asked me and my brother to make a comic strip for their Patreon page and so, naturally, I thought of The Phantom and Alien. Now, they wanted it to star their company mascots, two cats called Grim and Bold. But, to all intents and purposes, they will actually be The Phantom and Alien.

The episodes will go up for free for everyone beginning in September, but you can see them all first in August HERE if you're interest.

There's also been talk of a printed graphic novel style book of comics as soon as we've got enough!

I'll make sure to put in lots of Barrow Downs references, don't worry.

Cool! That'll give me something to procrastinate with once school starts!

Exciting news, Hook! I look forward to more P and A craziness.
