Portfolio of Comic Books

I've approached a British publisher with some of my comic concepts and I hope to contact other international comic book publishers as well. When these stories are published, I'll add some scans and further explanations to this site.

Southern Tribe

In 1995 and 1996, I launched a professional superhero comic book series throughout New Zealand called Southern Tribe. I wrote, illustrated and self-published the series as an experiment to see if a mainstream story could do well in New Zealand. Southern Tribe ran for four bi-annual issues (with the unofficial end of Southern Tribe in an Armageddon Convention magazine in 1998, which I also did the cover for). The skills I learned by physically making the comic and the business management skills I developed are still serving me well today. Thanks to everyone who submitted Southern Tribe fanmail. I read every letter!

The story centres around a group of four genetically altered, psychically powered heroes living in the near future in New Zealand. They use their gifts to protect civilians from an army of terrorists that threaten to overrun the city of Auckland. As time progresses, the team faces the ones responsible for altering their DNA and discover that they are not the only ones who have been granted these gifts...
