“The Dark” : Signing in Waterstones, Cribbs Causeway, April 24th 1pm

The good, good people of Waterstones will be letting me loose in their Cribbs Causeway store on April 24th at 1pm.

This is the first time I have signed in a “mainstream” book store as opposed to a specialist comic store or a convention; I’m really looking forward to introducing some non-comics fans to The Dark as well as meeting up with any comics fans who come by.

There are some details of the signing up on the Waterstone’s website and, of course, there is a Facebook event if you want to sign up.

Waiting for the Trade Podcast review of The Dark

Many thanks to Dave at Waiting for the Trade (They like big books and they cannot lie) for featuring The Dark on the latest episode of the WFTT Podcast.

Dave will put a full review up on the website in due course, but for now I am more than happy to hear someone so exercised by the idea of Memetech and getting so engaged with the story. Hopefully Dave will be equally happy when he’s reached the second half and all of the secrets have been revealed.

Don’t take my word for it though, listen to Waiting for the Trade.

Hypergeek Review “The Dark” in its entirety

Ed Kaye followed up his review of Issue #1 of The Dark by giving us his take on the whole story …

Not only has Chris Lynch created an incredibly interesting concept to use as the basis of this story, but he’s also created an incredibly unique plot … Rick Lundeen’s linework on this story has a very clean and smooth look to it, which is complimented by some really vibrant colouring …

The Dark is a highly original and inventive graphic novel, with an intriguing and involving plot that really keeps readers on their toes. It’s a book that you’re going to want to read at least twice, trust me! Forty-Five was my early pick for graphic novel of the year, but it looks like it’s already got some tough competition in the form of The Dark!

forbiddenplanetIt’s that most vital of things … the home town signing! Chris will be Forbidden Planet, Cardiff, from 5pm to 6pm to sign copies of The Dark. Terror abounds as I face friends and family in my “professional” capacity as the mind behind the book, so any and all support is greatly appreciated!

Many thanks to the guys at Forbidden Planet for squeezing this into their busy signings schedule. If you are interested, please sign up for our Facebook Event so that they now how many people to expect. (Not that selling out in my home town would not be cool.)

For the hardcore, rumours abound of an  “after party” in one of Cardiff’s many fine hostelries … keep your ear to the ground for information on the night.

The signing will run from 12:00 – 15:00, so hopefully I will have plenty of time to talk to everyone who comes in. Podcasters and bloggers are welcome to get in touch in advance to arrange interviews before, during, or after the session.

Other than for conventions, this is my first ever signing outside of good old Cardiff, so fingers crossed for a good event!
