Good news, everyone! TURNUS, the brand spanking new Rooms spin-off, is bursting onto computer screens on Thursday the 15th. The finishing touches are just being put in place, for the website, and it'll be all systems go sooner than you can say "Eveneyecan'tprounouncemyname"(Ed. OMG - Spoilers!).

So, check back on the 15th for the link to the new site and the start of a brand new chapter in the Psycheverse saga. We'll be updating twice a week on a highly unorthodox Thurs/Sun schedule and hope you'll be along for the ride.

Jump Leads issue #3 (the one I've written) should also be starting the same week - on the 16th - so fun times, all round! :)

TURNUS bursts back on to computer screens, with new comic from Euan Mumford and philby4000

How does a hapless university drop-out go on to become a special agent working for a top secret government organisation? That's the question the new comic from Euan "Mad" Mumford and philby4000 seeks to answer as readers are taken on a strange journey into a world where aliens are very real and adventure lies ten years or so in the past.

TURNUS follows the continuing adventures of the popular character from Rooms who served as Chex's flatmate during his first year at Uni. With art being provided by the legendary philby4000 (DeviantArt) and writing by Rooms creator, Euan Mumford, TURNUS is a chaotic sci-fi comedy webcomic set to update twice-weekly on a computer near you, soon.

Further news on this exciting collaborative project and a teaser site will materialise in the coming weeks.

More new comic info for intrigued artists...

Hi all. If you've been putting off volunteering for the artist role on my new comic, due to my vagueness regarding what the comic will actually be about, then put off no longer! The basic synopsis is below (Note: I won't go in to masses of detail so as not to spoil it for those of you who don't want to volunteer)

The new comic will revolve around a female character called Aje who has inadvertantly travelled back in time from the future to modern day Psych. Once there, she finds that, far from being at an advantage as a result of being from the future, she is actually clueless about most things that we take for granted (like how to open a door that doesn't open itself for you) and must struggle to come to terms with her new surroundings.

Of course, there's a lot more to it than that but I hope that's enough to give you a vague sense of what the comic will be about. Also, it's set in the Psycheverse so expect some Rooms characters to pop up occasionally (not too often though, this is a new comic and not a continuation of Rooms). Interested artists should send examples of their work to me, by clicking on my name above or the contact button, to the left. Thanks!

Also, this is kind of a shot in the dark as I don't think it's been done before but if anyone would like to become the official musician for the new comic then I thought we could have a downloadable music track, per storyline, to provide a kind of sountrack to the comic. Anyway, if this idea interests you at all, let me know. Just because you can't draw doesn't mean you can't help with the comic.
