GO-MAN: CHAMPION OF EARTH is available to preorder now!

Hello everyone. I'm not very active here anymore and every time I say I'll start posting here more, I inevitably forget again. I'm a lot more active on Blue Sky these days and I also have a newsletter now: https://buttondown.com/hamishsteele

BUT I need to let you all know that my next book series, GO-MAN, is beginning in August and you can preorder the book from wherever you get your comics!

Lonely latchkey kid Tobi dreams of growing up to fight the giant monsters that plague his city, just like his dad does, but when he stumbles upon the power to turn into the colossal superhero, Go-Man, he realizes he’s been wishing his childhood away.

This is the book of my dreams! A kaiju comic with an autistic superhero! Perfect for all fans of Dead End and my other work!

Check it out here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/hamish-steele/go-man-champion-of-earth/9781454955047/

⚡ANNOUNCEMENT TIME!⚡

Coming in 2025! 

GO-MAN: CHAMPION OF EARTH is book one in a brand new comic series!

Meet TOBI, an autistic kid who transforms into a giant superhero to fight monsters! Being a hero makes him popular... but is GO-MAN just a mask he puts on for others?

Above you can read the official announcement. I'm teaming up once again with Union Square Kids who did such a good job with DEADENDIA with a special shoutout to my editor there Ardyce Alspach  and of course my agent Steven Salpeter at Assemble Media.

There are many towns in Quadling country, and among the most fragile of these towns is that of the Cuttenclips. The people, gardens, buildings, animals, and even the water are made of paper and card; and all of this is protected by a magical wall that keeps both bad weather and clumsy strangers out. Only one resident in the Cuttenclip village is flesh and blood, Miss Cuttenclip herself.

She's a perfectly ordinary Quadling girl, but what makes her special is her artistic flair, especially her skill in making things out of paper. The Good Witch Glinda found her artworks so charming that she gifted Miss Cuttenclip with access to an magical paper and a little plot of land.

So Miss Cuttenclip lives in a house in the town, surrounded by both mundane and magical art supplies, happily making new paper dolls and decor. Otherwise, she doesn't intervene much in her creations' lives, though she sometimes has to intercede when visitors don't obey the sign on the town gate:

Twelve years ago, I first posted a picture of Barney on this Tumblr account. Today, the DeadEndia comic has come to an end with the release of DEADENDIA: THE DIVINE ORDER.

The book is finally out in the US and Canada, and is available in many other territories as an eBook.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this series across the years. I couldn't have done it without my little following here on Tumblr.
