Matt and Mark at Melksham

Melksham Comic Con was one of the convention highlights of the year for Hellbound Media. The event is a great mix of comic con and family day out, with lots of local con firstimers attended with their families mingling with the comic fans and cosplayers and the event is all the better for it.
We didn’t get to the panels but heard good things and we chatted to plenty of interested people about our comics. We might even have found a new artist or two.
The team of Brians, eager men, women, Sith and others, were amazing and helped us from the moment we pulled up to the venue through helping us to pack up the car to chatting in the pub post con.
It’s great news that Melksham will be two days next year and it will be one of the first events we add to the Hellbound calendar in 2014.

Good news! The first issue of Slaughterhouse Farm, the horrific 24 page new comic book from Hellbound Media, is now available for pre-order! Visit www.hellboundmedia.co.uk to order your copy.

All pre-orders received before midnight on Friday, April 27, will be signed by the Slaughterhouse Farm creative team of Matt Warner, AJ Ballard and Arfon Jones at the comic’s launch at the Wales Comic Con on Sunday, April 28. This is the only time Matt, Arfon and AJ are due to be at the same event this year so fully signed copies will be limited. The signed comics will then be dispatched on Monday, April 29.

Thanks again to the awesome Nikki Foxrobot for lettering the book, Steven Denton for colouring the cover, and to Gene Dolreds Dolders for his work on the Slaughterhouse Farm website. Thanks to Stuart and Hal at UK on Display, to Siân for bringing the blood-soaked bride to life, and Arfon Edwards and Gaynor Thomas for the photoshoot.

Finally, a big thanks to Ryan Kift, Paul Kane, Spencer Wilding, Lee Grice, Trystan Mitchell, Nathan Head and Steve Tanner for reading the comic and providing back page quotes.

Hope everyone else enjoys it!

But be warned, over 18s who are not easily offended only please as the comic contains scenes of graphic violence, sexual scenes and bad language.
