Yes you. Look up there and click that new banner to see the new Amperduke site, packed with goodies. Big thanks to Johnny John mc Johnstein for whipping this up in record time and putting up with my wacky requests, ‘ Can we make the site in Virtual Reality John? Can we have a hand reach out through the screen and stroke the reader’s cheek ever so gently John?

Cheers man.

Coming soon! The story behind the story. This’ll be included in the new Amperduke micro-site coming vewwy soon

Look at this

A fantastic piece of artwork from Salvo. And he was good enough to send me the orginal art which is amazingly detailed and crisply executed as is all his work. See his blog and more of his work here. He works in a classic meticulous rendering style that puts my scrawlings to shame.

He is best known for the fantastic Windell Comics Superhero Showcase, by far the best Irish made comic.

There’s still a few days left to send in your Amperduke pics for the new site thing.

A glimpse of the distant future; a new Amperduke book. There will be previews from the book on the new Amperduke site next month. I reckon it’ll be out in October 2010 depending on uncontrollable factors such as will the marijuana plant be harvested in Feb and will I get a PS3 for Christmas.

Hewwo chumbles! Oh you’re all so cute and lovely I want to keep you in a shoebox and feed you worms and bread.

This week is Amperduke week over on Eclectic Micks and a few other renegades have been sending me their Fanperduke art to be included in either the second edition or in the gallery on the new site. Any and all artwork is appreciated.

Below is a hastily cobbled and dodgy model sheet for you

Yes yes, the stars have aligned and the creative juices are swilling around my ankles here, I’ve started planning a new Amperduke book. It’s going to be brilliant, I spent all day yesterday mapping it out.

The current Mister Amperduke book will be in this Novembers Previews and I’ll be relaunching this site with all manner of new things including a multilingual Amperduke section where the preview of the new book will be. So The Duke is finally going worldwide this year. If sales are good I’ll drop all my freelance design nonsense and concentrate full time on it. Oh yeah, there’s also a ‘making of’ section in the new site that takes you through the behind the scenes of making the book, all in comic form.

Nice.

Here’s nice image from the last Amperduke story. Looks like I’ll be getting a second printing this year and the new edition will have lots of goodies in it. The reason there’s a bunch of black pages at the end of the book is because the printer needed to fill a certain amount and although it looks okay, it looks shit.

I’d like to add 20 pages of content, with sketches, the new story and some woeful preliminary stuff

Nice.
