PRESS RELEASE
Exploded View Saturday March 6 | Launch Party at Ayden Gallery | 7pm
Vancouver, Feb, 16, 2010
For immediate transmission - Cloudscape Comics is pleased to announce the launch of their fourth publication, Exploded View. A science fiction anthology featuring twenty-five artists, all current or former residents of Vancouver, Canada. This book showcases the broad range of talent in the comics artist community. Notable contributors include Camilla d’Errico, who has been making waves with her manga influenced paintings in and outside of Vancouver, and is the artist for notable titles such as “Burn”, “Tanpopo”, and “Sky Pirates”; Children’s book Illustrator Scot Ritchie; Angela Melick, creator of the acclaimed “Wasted Talent” Webcomic; John Christmas, the artist on the recently released “Barack the Barbarian”; Jonathon Dalton, creator of “Lords of Death and Life” and “A Mad Tea-Party”; Edison Yan, whose work can be
seen on “Scribblenauts” on the Nintendo DS; Colin Upton, who has been pioneering mini- comics in Vancouver since 1985; Local Rocker, actor, and Illustrator Toren Atkinson; and Jordyn Bochon, a contributor to the independent comics anthology “You Ain’t No Dancer”. The group includes established artists, underground cartoonists, web comic creators, animators, illustrators, and manga artists all working together. Their focus is on telling meaningful, intelligent stories through the medium of comics.
This book represents the Cloudscape comics collective’s most ambitious project to date, with a huge roster of talented artists and their highest production quality. Motivated by a desire to see their work in print, Cloudscape is moving ahead without an established publisher or outside funding, raising the money it needs exclusively from the artists within the group.
Cloudscape will be launching their new book at the Ayden gallery in Tinseltown, Vancouver on March 6th at 7pm. Most of the artists will be in attendance to sign autographs. This will be your first opportunity to purchase this fantastic new book.
