In 2002 I started putting together and publishing a comics fanzine called Graphic Eye. It was something I had wanted to do for many years and finally the idea came to fruition. Graphic Eye focused mainly on older comics, generally from the Golden Age up to the mid 1970s. There were 3 issues of Graphic Eye, all were very well received and I really enjoyed creating them. Other matters in my life took precedence and Graphic Eye had to come to an end. Although.... I may return to it one day! I still have lots more to say about the wonderful world of comic books.
I still have a few brand new unread copies available for sale, please see the store page to order.
