There's now an interview I did a few weeks ago with Shaun Manning up on Comicbookresources.com. It's got a whole bunch of preview pages and interesting personal tidbits!

"Jan's Atomic Heart" Review at Eyeoncomics!

The awesome Don MacPherson, resident critic at eyeoncomics.com, did an in-depth and very favourable review for JAH - 10/10!

Here's an excerpt:

Simon Roy brings a Euro-comics look to bear on this project, which makes sense given that it’s set in Frankfurt. His style here is easily comparable to that of Guy (B.P.R.D.) Davis, and the gruff, grizzled look of some of the characters also reminded me of similar characters in Paul Grist’s Kane and Jack Staff. The story presents a visual challenge in that the robotic facade of the main character isn’t the most emotive of visages, but Roy demonstrates his skills by conveying the appropriate feelings through the character’s body language. There’s a nice variety in his repertoire of storytelling techniques. He offers some convincing cityscapes and backgrounds, but there are other times when he isolates the characters in fields of white to emphasize a moment or to enhance a particular mood.

I'm feeling understandably good about this...

An... interview?

"SNEAK PEEK: THE BEATING OF JAN'S ATOMIC HEART 

An interview and 6-page .pdf preview of the upcoming sci-fi mystery, Jan's Atomic Heart. Fans of Blade Runner and I, Robot are in for a treat. Take a look inside the thought process of Simon Roy, who thinks robots may do more than just clean our house in the future."

I know, eh? Check it out!

Sketch/Script

One of the sketch/script pages that preceded the second scene of "Jan's Atomic Heart". 

A picture for the inner covers of the book. I dunno how I feel about it. I think I kind of mucked up the lower right in the wreckage there.

Jan's Atomic Heart

AWW YEAH BOYS! Peep it:

POST UP ON THE PUBLISHER'S SITE FOR MY COMIC!

oh, and if y'got facebook, invite yourself to this.

<< АТОМНОЕ СЕРДЦЕ ЯНА >>

The front of the wrap-around cover for "Jan's Atomic Heart", formerly "Morning Coffee with Jan and Anders". The text will be different, but this is basically it.

ROCK (the fuck) ON!

Oh yeah...

Oh, and here's the various rough covers for the comic. For marketing purposes, the name's been changed back to it's initial title - Jan's Atomic Heart. The top design will be the one you'll see on shelves, though. It'll be in trade size, too, instead of a small indie-style book.


Rock on.

DO WORK!

A page in progress (below).

Pronounced "Yann"

The first two pages of "Morning Coffee with Jan and Anders", also known as "Jan's Atomic Heart". I've only done 22 pages so far, and I've only had the time to scan these two, so THIS IS ALL YOU'RE GETTING YOU GREEDY PIGS!
