OK, you’ll need to excuse the pun. Ace is a superlative I don’t think I’ve used since junior school. I put it away in the big-box-of-words-I-no-longer-use along with “mega”, “brill” (except when referring to the fish), and “wicked” (except when describing witches and rather nifty anthology comics from FutureQuake Press.

Something that is genuinely, actually, and properly ace though is the new Ace Comics website, not least because the guys at Ace have been kind enough to place The Dark and Freeman front and centre on their brand new homepage for your pre-ordering pleasure.

The guys at Ace are proper comics retailers – passionate about the medium, supportive of homegrown talent, and damn good people across the board. We need more guys like this, out there on the front line. So, visit the site.

That is all …
