The Field

A new comic, coming out in april, from me, Ed Brisson, and Simon Gough! Here's the blurb:

"A man wakes in a field wearing nothing but his underwear. He’s got no idea who he is or how he got there. His only connection to the outside world a cell phone on which he receives mysterious texts warning him of impending danger. Danger like Christian, an ex-bible sales-man in the middle of a crime spree fueled by Christian Rock, dirty sex, meth and murder."

New Year, New Books!

SO! 2014 has begun, and already dark forces are in motion, gathering in the night... I've got two collections coming out this year, plus at least two comic series that i'll be involved with to varying extents...



BUT the first of these is "Jan's Atomic Heart and other stories" from Image Comics! In the words of my solicit blurb:

"From the mind of Simon Roy, co-writer and artist of the Eisner Award-nominated series PROPHET, comes a collection of tales that span time, space, and species."

This collects my original "Jan's Atomic Heart", along with six other short science fiction and fantasy stories that i wrote and drew all on my lonesome ("Shipwrecked with Dan the Gorilla", "Good Business, and more). Go down to your local shop and get 'em to order a million!

Monsters and Dames

In the words of Brandon Graham:
"A pin up I did along with Adam Warren and SImon Roy, (with Robert Porter coloring Adam’s part of the drawing) I colored the lady I drew and Simon’s background and then Simon did up the sky. He also drew that Anubus as a nod to some Snowcrash. suuch a cyberpunk! oh and note the Ono Sendai Adam drew (Neromancer!) 

This will be in the Emerald city con pin up book. "
