The Big Digital Comics Hallowe'en Post Of 2015
What a great Hallowe'en it is this year! It's on a Saturday so the kids can stay up. There's Doctor Who in the middle of it. And, as ever, I'll be giving out comics to kids who come to the door in costume.
Almost said cosplay. Anyway.
There's lots of things happening in comic stores, where they have been giving away free comics all day, some in packs to be given away by people at their own doors.

But what else is going on?
2000 AD has released it's latest digital-first release, paranormal action comedy,Dandridge, collecting the adventures of Spartacus Dandridge, 2000 AD's best-dressed ghostfinder and the world's first 'spookpunk' action hero, for the first time.
Following the Victorian Spiritualist movement's ability to capture otherworldly beings, such as ghosts, faeries and angels, ectoplasm becomes a cheap fuel alternative, bolstering the British Empire.
Dandridge was a ghostfinder at the turn of the century, hunting down rogue spooks, until he was shot dead and imprisoned. Now a spook himself, it's 1981 and he's finally freed from captivity.
With an Angel-tailored outfit and his loyal assistant Shelley, Dandridge must contend with all manner of spectral adversaries and dastardly goings-on!
Written by Alec Worley (Age of the Wolf, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and with art from Warren Pleece (Hellblazer, Incognegro) and Jon Davis-Hunt (Judge Dredd, Transformers), Dandridge is a strip full of panache and supernatural mystery.
Dandridge is now available digitally for £3.99 for 118 pages from the 2000 AD webshop, as well as from the 2000 AD apps for Apple and Android devices.
To celebrate the Halloween season (and the eighth anniversary of its debut), HIGH MOON by David Gallaher and Steve Ellis (and their studio Bottled Lightning) is having a frighteningly goodsale. The entire Harvey-award winning series is 99 cents with the promo code: HIGHMOON
