Happy Christmas! STRIP #7 in UK Stores Tomorrow

STRIP Magazine #7 should be in UK comic stores tomorrow.

Diamond, our UK distributor, who have confirmed receipt of stock, listed the issue as the Xmas/Christmas special - order code SEP127823 - STRIP MAGAZINE CHRISTMAS 2012 SPECIAL - and confirmed two weeks ago it will be in stores on Wednesday if the stores ordered it.
 
However, just when we though things were going so well - the issue arriving on time for once! - after a discussion with one comic shop, it seems the email solicitation of the title may have passed some shops by.

Although listed as "sold out" the title is listed on the Forbidden Planet web site, so they seem to be expecting copies: see http://bit.ly/strip-magazine07

Subscription copies of #7 (including a replacement copies of Issue 5/6) were mailed from Bosnia to all subscribers - UK and overseas - on 20th/21st November.

A taste of the STRIP digital edition

Our former editor John Freeman, who is now Managing Editor at our digital partner ROK Comics, has put together this little video for us demonstrating the digital edition of STRIP Magazine Issue 7.

We thought you should see it too and we hope you like it, although we are disappointed we did not see his cat! We imagine it is a ferocious beast from myth.

If you have an iPad you can buy any issue of STRIP from iTunes.

Black Ops Extreme: Who's Who

This features in the special Christmas issue, but has appeared in the STRIP digital editions previously.

There is no Black Ops in #7, but the story returns next year, when BOX continue to battle the terrorist Sadiq, who has some mystery backers...

Digital Strip #7 on sale now, print edition in shops soon

The digital edition of Strip Magazine #7 for iPad is on sale now from iTunes, and Diamond UK have confirmed the print edition will be on sale in comic shops from Wednesday 19th December.

This edition of the magazine is a Christmas Special that takes a slightly different form to the usual magazine.

We have an exciting new episode of Phil Hester and John McCrea's regular series WARPAINT to kick it off, but you'll find the Magazine is largely devoted to a variety of one off stories.

By way of a hint of things to come next year, we also have a sneak look at several all-new stories including THRACIUS by James Hudnall and Mark Vigouroux; DENIZENS (by Miko Horvatic and Maxim Simic), which we think is set to prove another hit with our readers; DAN BARTON OF SPACE COMMAND (by John Freeman and Andrew Chiu), an affectionate comedy homage to space heroes; and CORWIN BLAYS, a festive tale starring a hapless thief!

The digital edition also features some exclusive extras, such as a quirky festive tune, and added 'data cards' with background information on the characters and some creators, along with a video trailer for David Lloyd's digital project, Aces Weekly.

We hope you enjoy this special Christmas gift, which also includes a bonus taster of the ROK Comics titles HOUDINI and THE BEATLES STORY - only in this digital edition!
