Animated Raygun Roads Poster by James Lawrence

One from the vault.

Unused concept artwork for a proposed Saturday morning cartoon chronicling the further exploits of The Kittelbach Pirates and their continuing battle against the forces of D-VOID.

Scheduled to air for a minimum of 5 seasons, the show got canned when Raygun insulted the head of The Cartoon Network. The details remain a mystery.

Before it’s cancellation, ‘Kittelbach Pirates FIRE!‘ was deep in preproduction, as evidenced by the following character designs submitted by showrunner, James Lawrence:

Raygun Roads models for Andrew Tunney to promote the launch of her new album. Armour plating by Negroli, Raygun and Komodo dragon models own.

The image, which was denied approval to run in Vogue Italia, Harpers Bazaar and Radio Times will be available as a limited edition print at The Lakes International Comic Art Festival, where the album debuts.

And because we are in a giving mood, here’s a Dub remix of the album’s first hit: “Suck on my Supernova”

Starburst Sabotage!

Holla Frankenhookers!

PM BUCHAN – our friend and co-conspirator (check out his masterpiece of filth BLACKOUT )- has reviewed the Raygun Roads ashcan in the latest issue of Starburst Magazine #392.

starburst-magazine-issue-392

“Tearing through themes of modern pop culture, recession politics, anarchy-versus-establishment and the powers of self-expression, Raygun Roads dances between the raindrops of Jack Kirby’s Fourth World saga, Grant Morrison’s The Invisibles and David Hine and Shaky Kane’s Bulletproof Coffin to create a neon-flashing love letter to rebellion and creativity…a psychedelic ride into the kind of humid teenage wish-fulfilment that David Lapham’s Vertigo series Young Liars was renowned for.”

P.M. Buchan, folks. What a writer.

Forbidden Planet International Invasion!

We infiltrated Forbidden Planet International August 15th, with help from underground gladiator Richard Bruton!

HERE’S THE LINK, BITCHES! 

There’s an interview with Owen Michael Johnson, that wanky little upstart.

There’s a redux trailer in sexy high deffffff

There’s a review of the ashcan.

Highlights (my favourite bits)

“Music video culture belching out pop renegades, punk ideals and comic art wonders….. Raygun Roads is part comics, part multi-media event, part biography, part musical obituary.”

“It’s really a superspeed trip into weirdness, Johnson and artist Indio really pushing it all up to 11”

“It’s a perfect little modern pop thing, bursting quick and bright on the consciousness.”

FPI, you juicy little beauties! We can’t wait to take the whole trip with you!
