Comics Paired With Musicians

[kentauros]

Hi y'all!

Thanks to Javaman for steering me here. Now I can share what little I know of comics, and my collection. Such as a recent purchase (only one in too long a time) that I discovered by being on an email list for British musician Bill Nelson: As follows:

I'm very pleased to announce the re-release of 'The Last Of The Neon
Cynics' album.
Originally released last year as a limited edition 500 run CD, it sold out
within weeks and has since become a highly collectable item. Matt Howarth,
(my artist collaborator on the project,) and myself have now decided to
re-release the album as a Digital Download via my new Bandcamp page. (Yes,
for some recordings, I've been persuaded to embrace a download facility!
Eeek!) 'The Last Of The Neon Cynics' is now available in high quality FLAC
format for those who wish to burn it back to a CDr, or MP3 format if you
just wish to load it into iTunes or some other media player. The download
also includes all of Matt's illustrated story in PDF format along with the
original cover artwork for you to print out.

If you are new to FLAC here's a help page

Otherwise, head over to the Store and click on the Bandcamp button

I know that last bit is pushing the sale, but those are also the only links for viewing specifics on the album and comic. Here's one of the images supplied:




The music is great, and the comic is great, so it was a nice pairing
I know I read that Howarth has done other pairings, and just saw on his site that he's done at least one other with Nash the Slash!

I haven't bought comics in years, so I don't know if anyone else is doing this kind of thing or not. It was new to me when I read that email, though I was pleasantly surprised with what I ended up purchasing.
