10 YEARS OF THE BF SIX TO WATCH! In the UK we are, of course, already aware of the growing profile of 2023 Broken Frontier ‘Six to Watch’ creator Ed Firth. Great news then that his Horny & High series is about to find a much wider audience in the US and Canada courtesy of Northwest Press. Their Kickstarter campaign for Volume 1 of the series has launched and can be backed here.
If you want some added incentive to back the book here’s some of our Ed Firth coverage to date:
Danger & comfort. Connection & isolation. Horror & beauty. Sex & drugs.
Ed Firth’s Horny & High is a breathtaking comics series looking at the sex and drug culture in London, blending sex and humor and tragedy in a bracing series of stories. Northwest Press is bringing Volume I to readers in the U.S. and Canada on Kickstarter!
The first volume has gone through four shorter print-runs in the U.K., but has never before been published in the United States. Northwest Press is producing an offset-printed North American edition of the series, starting with Volume I, to introduce his fantastic work to a wider audience.
Horny & High, Volume I will be a new, 72-page edition of the U.K. release, distributed to retailers and readers in the U.S. and Canada by Northwest Press. It contains the stories “The Nightbus”, “Chillout”, and “♬” as well as hookup profile portraits and some new graphics and extras.
2024 marks the tenth year of Broken Frontier’s ‘Six to Watch‘ initiative. Look for articles throughout the year celebrating the work of those artists who have been a part of the programme.
