I've known Chris for a few years now as he was a graduate from Glamorgan Uni's animation course before joining Rare games. About a year ago Chris was let go from Rare and since then he's been working on his magnum opus: a Candleman graphic novel. Chris has been writing and drawing comics based around his character for a few years so it's really great to see him go for a longer form story. This sketch is my second of the Candleman world but this time features the support characters instead. (Birmingham International Comics Show 2009)

 
I first met Chris at his GCADT graduation party about three years ago so it was great to see him at the 2007 Birmingham convention. Luckily, I made it to his stand just in time to snap up the last two copies of Candleman (one for me and one for Romano), even though it was only midday on the first day!
