WORLDS END THE RIDERS ON THE STORM WIZARDS KEEP PUBLISHING

Tim Perkins

the Malta Comic Con crew and guests 2011

I had the pleasure last year to attend the Malta comic con in Valletta , i was there as a guest you can read all about the convention and Tim's book launch on his excellent blog Malta comic con part 1 there are 4 parts to this mini saga write up ,but worth reading , Tim Perkins is a rare breed yes he's my friend , we first met many years ago at a convention and as Tim put's it we are ''a kindred spirit''.

Tim has a passion for life and comic storytelling and art for all ages which i have enjoyed sharing with him over the many years i've known him, he told me i would enjoy myself in Malta and i did so much in fact i plan to return there soon for a visit .

Now on to Tim's first book of Worlds end vol 1 The Riders on the Storm!
Tim worked on this project on and off for 7 yrs , his vision and passion was to produce a new saga that would appeal to all ages and be exciting and fun , i can say  Tim achieved his goal , i enjoyed the book alot, top production of print and binding by Print Media Productions Ltd, wonderful visuals , maps, end papers,behind the scenes features, great designs , a fast paced comic strip story (which made me itching to read book 2) what's the story? read  Lew Stringers excellent review
If you love fantasy/ sci-fi , good ol adventure with a dash of humour, stories you can read with your children then i highly recommend Tim's book .

you can buy Tim's fab production from his website http://www.wizards-keep.com
go on meet Gweldar, Geek and Zephol you'll enjoy the adventure.

news update

Sorry the blog has had so many passing of great talent reported , that's the problem getting older the people that mean something to me are getting older too and in some cases dying before their time.

Any way on a happier note Tales of the Buddha before he got Enlightened has now a fan page on Facebook Tales Of The Buddha

I'm drawing a new adventure where Buddha helps out Santa which will be a 5 pager story again Alan Grant has written another very funny tale.
The Ebook collection of Buddha should be out next month by Renegade Arts Ent will keep you posted when it's out .

TONY DEZUNIGA R.I.P

Another comic book legend passed away recently Tony Dezuniga Jonah Hex artistic creator , I grew up loving Tony's work on Savage Sword of Conan by Marvel , he drew the most beautiful women and had such a fantastic style, my brother would buy lots of b/w mags in the 70's and i got used to spotting certain artists styles i always enjoyed Tony's work, thanks for the entertainment sir and God bless.

DONNA SUMMER & ERNIE CHAN R.I.P

When i was a teenager many many years ago i would read my comics playing music on the radio or tape recorder , i loved Donna Summer's music , her look, i really thought she was ''HOT STUFF'' the times my friends and i would disco dance to her music and enjoy the beat , such fun and energy back then happy care free days .
so sad to read this week that both Donna and Ernie both have passed away to cancer , my thoughts go out to their family and friends.
Ernie Chan was a brilliant inker, painter and artist his work on Conan, the Incredible Hulk, Batman shows how great he was, my brother used to collect Savage Sword of Conan , and Conan the Barbarian and King Kull which regularly had Ernie's stamp on them , he had a fantastic inking style and he worked really well with the masterful John Buscema .
I would spend hours looking and reading those wonderful comics dreaming of  far off places.
Donna and Ernie thanks for the entertainment and for being part of my life growing up.
God bless
