Countdown to launch - Unearthly Science Fiction....

It's a book, but not as we know it....

Well it's been some time languishing out there, lost in deepest space, but we can finally announce that Agent Johnny's Unearthly Science Fiction anthology - talk about judging a book by it's cover, ay! - is now ready to enter earth's orbit. NASA have just today released an official statement announcing that this shiny A5, sleek 72 page, sturdy 5.99 GBP RRP ship will make a successful/crash? landing at The Banshee Labyrinth in Edinburgh, Scotland on the 12th of April 2017 (at approx. 7.30pm). The opportunity to stargaze at this spectacular sight is brought to you courtesy of the good people at Shoreline Of Infinity and their excellent Event Horizon happenings....

A long-gestating brainchild of Agent JohnnyUnearthly Science Fiction sees him rounding up the (un)usual gang of suspects, encouraging them to run riot on a 'broad' (but typically esoteric) science fiction theme (with some cowboys and, er, dinosaurs in the mix fer good measure). The difference this time is that the bulk of this book is made up of intriguing text(!) stories from the likes of auld Edinburgh acolytes (S.H.I.E.L.D. Director) Andrew J. Wilson and John Rafferty....

Rebirth Anew by John Rafferty

....and never fear as Glasgog gets in on this intergalactic action too, with Agent Rob 'tapping up' fellow cohorts  Simnel and Ian Wark 'fer to transmit' a story or two....

The Unit by Simnel

Not to be outdone, Agents Johnny and Rob have somehow found time to beam in a few leery texts of their own making....

The Summons Of Natas Fillage by Rob Miller

And if all this 'textual intercourse' isn't enough to get yer cosmic juices flowing, there's also several comic strips to be found adrift in the yawning void! Agent Johnny is on script duties for the 'presented in full for the first time ever' Codename: Cosmos, featuring Una Kennedy (with 'remastered' art by Agent Rob) and Jed Hale, Arizona Sheriff: The Second Pteranodon (with Adam J. Smith on fresh art duties).

In addition, seasoned Edinburgh cartoonist Malcy Duff serves up his surreal Two Headed Fish while the ever mysterious Simnel journey's back and inwards to explore The Atlantean Mind....

To round things off we genuinely travel back through space and time to the year of our Orb, 1967, (re)printing 'Lanark crony' Jim Lindsay's schoolboy superhero extravaganza Tales Of The Justice Legion....

So set your stasers to 'phun' as Braw Books (I mean, c'mon, who else?) brings you the latest, greatest and furthest out 'warped factor' you could(n't) possibly imagine....
