A London Comics Pub Look at Heavy Metal's Soft Wood
Last night in old London town, a small coterie of comic book creators gather in a pub, with visiting Heavy Metal CEO Jeff Krelitz to look at advance copies of the new comedy anthology spinoff from Heavy Metal, Soft Wood. Scheduled to be published every two months, the first issue features all manner of folk, some present last night, while others present were showing off all manner of portfolios that suggested they may be appearing in upcoming volumes of the magazine.
For myself, Soft Wood republished my Watchmen parody, Watchmensch, drawn by Simon Rohrmuller and now in loving colour courtesy of Watchmen colourist John Higgins who returned to his old analogue colouring skills to work on this parody of his old work, recreating those colour swatches and then exaggerating them slightly.
