"New British Comics" is an anthology of... new British comics. The book was published in two edition: English and Polish. Both edition contain the same strips, the only important difference is a
language. The
The anthology doesn't have a theme. I've gathered great comics from British artist who have trusted me on this crazy idea - that's the book real theme. They worked hard on their stories and most of them have even made Polish title pages or handmade Polish lettering. Thanks for making "New British Comics" come true. I owe all of you big time.
Why this anthology happened?
Among self-published (small-press, indie, underground or what else we're going to call them) comics are lot of real gems. I feel that they instead of being known only to some local audience they deserve to be shown internationally. Of course I heard about the crazy invention called "Internet", but I think printed comics still gather a lot of more attention and stay longer in people's minds.
The idea is simple: why not publish our stories in more than one language? I can speak only Polish and (so-so) English, but I guess that was enough to make this project work, especially with so many friendly hands that helped me. If I can do this than anyone can do this. Even if you know only one language you can always ask your friends to help translate your stuff or make new friends. Either way will work. And it's definitely worth the trouble.
