The title page is finished and so have the first three pages of the story. Leonardo M Giron's work has got to be seen!

The first episode is complete and sitting on the pages of Murky Depths #9 waiting for the rest of the mag to be put together.

Watch out for the new Dead Girl's banner at the next convention we're at.

I can't wait to read that! The illustrations seem awesome and knowing Richard Chalder,the story must be great as well.

Thanks, Gillian. Leonardo has indeed done some beautiful work on this project. Dead Girls (the graphic novel) moves on apace -- episode 2 is almost complete. Hope to have some new artwork up on the Dead Girls site and Facebook page quite soon!

News about the Dead Girls Graphic Novel project is up at the SFX forum (which also features a preview of Leonardo's stunning cover art for Murky Depths #9 -- Iggy and Primavera in the 'Big Weird' of a future Bangkok). Go to:

SFX will run a piece on Dead Girls the Graphic Novel in issue 186, on sale 29 July.

To point out what, I hope, is a bleedingly obvious erratum: 'David Calder' should be 'Richard Calder'. Yes, it's me giving the interview, not my mysterious, misshapen, malefic, 'long-lost' brother. (We keep him in the attic.)
