STICK FIGURE HAMLET

Posted by Conor McCreery, September 5, 2010 – 11:13 am

Yes, this site has the ENTIRE tragedy drawn entirely in stick figures.
Now we ask, can you really have ANY more fun with the Bard than a stick-ginger Hamlet? (yes, correct the answer WAS Kill Shakespeare, but this is a close second).
ENJOY!

Chatting with the boys.

Us, do media? No….
Ok, yes… we sat down with the lovely Andrew Ardizzi at FanExpo in Toronto last weekend. Andrew is a general all-around renaissance man and both a senior reporter at Humber college as well as a reporter for COMIC BOOK DAILY!
So it was our good fortune to get to sit down with him [...]

WHAT? Another shameless plug for a talented guy we know?

Posted by Conor McCreery, September 5, 2010 – 10:55 am

As you know, we here at the Kill Shakespeare team are shameless self-promoters, but as you are hopefully starting to learn we are also working at shamelessly promoting other SUPER-DUPER talented people that we get to meet in this wonderful world of comics.
Enter Nimit Malavia. A good friend of our cover artist Kagan Mcleod, and [...]

Issue #5 – Page 1 process

Posted by Anthony Del Col, September 1, 2010 – 3:40 pm

A week prior to the release of Issue #5, attached is the process behind the creation of Page #1 of the issue.  One day soon we will tape Andy as he goes through the thumbnail process (where he designs the pages) – the process is hilarious as he describes the action to us while reviewing.

KILL SHAKESPEARE GETS SOME LOVE ON “NATIONAL READ A COMIC IN PUBLIC DAY”

Posted by Conor McCreery, August 31, 2010 – 6:31 pm

We here on the Kill Shakespeare team are big fans of comics. Not just the super-hero books (tho’ we love those too) but the notion that there is a comic for EVERYONE .
And one of the ways to  show that to people is to read comics — in public.
I know, I know — its a [...]

What should the caption be?

Posted by Anthony Del Col, August 30, 2010 – 2:05 pm

This is one of the funniest photos I’ve ever taken… I hope that you agree.  But we’re having problems – we’d like to come up with the best caption possible.  We are now holding a Caption Contest – submit your ideas for the caption for this photo and you can win an autographed copy of [...]

Scenes from a FanExpo

Posted by Anthony Del Col, August 28, 2010 – 11:05 pm

We had our first full day at FanExpo Canada today.  It was a really, really busy day with lots of people stopping by our table – some brought copies for us to sign, some came to buy copies they couldn’t find at stores, some found out about us today.  We love attending conventions like these [...]

Graphic Novel Reporter Grills us!

Posted by Conor McCreery, August 25, 2010 – 11:38 am

We’ve always hoped that Kill Shakespeare becomes the sort of comic that people who don’t usually read comics can pick up and enjoy. And part of that is getting educators and librarians to see both the value of Kill Shakespeare AND the value of comics as a unique medium that not only spans both literature [...]

An addition to the Kill Shakespeare family!

Posted by Conor McCreery, August 25, 2010 – 11:08 am

It takes a lot of people to make Kill Shakespeare a success. Some are obvious, Andy B. for art, Ian for colours, Kagan on covers… but that only touches the tip of the ice-berg. There are literally dozens of people who are helping to support Kill Shakespeare and recently one of our faves experienced a [...]
