Sequential #4, the fanzine made in sunny (well, it is sunny today) Scotland is out now.  Featuring a chat with Dan Mora; an in-depth look at the classic Italian strip, Saturno contro La Terra (which is a great, well researched read) and my ramblings on comics in the time of covid.

Sequential #6 is now on sale.
Articles include a great cartoon piece by our pal Ron Harris on word balloons, text boxes and all the weird, wonderful and woeful attempts made in the hope of making a comic strip understandable.  Your MC is Sniffy the Pup.
An insider's illustrated history of inDELLible by Jim Ludwig.
My offering is a look at cats in comics - not funny animal cats:  think superheroes and heroines; masked mystery moggies; femme fatale felines; obscure, great and awful.
Plus, a look back at Night Raven, and "The Power of Three."

Graced with an original cover illustration by Alan Davis, there is a lot to get you excited in this issue. A deep delve into the life and career of Kurt Caesar; we dig into the history of The Phantom - from Frew and Egmont to the dodgy Turkish books and more; a look at stretchy superheroes - not the obvious; a bit of a rant about the great bane of comic shops; Caroline Baker, Lady Barrister; an in depth spotlight on the great Reed Crandell.

Sounds like another interesting issue Paw.

Sequential # 8 has now been let loose.  Our biggest issue yet with 64 packed pages.  Available both as physical and digital editions.
Try it, you never know, you might like it.
Our cover this issue features the feisty Edith Hardy, owner of the Hardy Detective Agency in '50's Paris, in a perilous situation, revolver in hand.
And you must read Comic Book Cop-Out Master Class by Ron Harris. Although, my piece on The Phantom and the silver screen comes close.

Hey gang,
I've been given a few issues of Sequential to read and enjoyed each of them.  I haven't gotten to read this latest issue but judging by the previous issues I'm sure I'll find things to enjoy and learn about our hobby.

Sequential #11 has finally seen the light of day:-
https://sequential.online/

80 pages this time and a lot of ground covered, incl, our pal Ron Harris with an excellent piece on the little known Link Studios, a very important supplier of strips for many British comics.
Lots of good stuff, although I admit to giving in to my love of old superheroes, again.

Paw.
