Avery Hill Publishing are delighted to announce the release of “Infrastructure”, by illustrator and comic creator Tim Bird (Grey Area, It’s A Bird’s Life), the latest instalment in our AHArts line.
Based in his bold, distinctive line style, married to his fascination with the hidden or ignored treasures of London, Tim has documented elements of the capital’s transport infrastructure, as informed by his own explorations and travels within the M25.
The result is seventeen beautiful illustrations rendered in a distinct and vibrant colour pallet, coupled with Tim’s thoughts and reasons for choosing each subject. Printed in full colour across forty pages in square format, the first print of “Infrastructure” is limited to an edition of 100, each numbered and signed by the artist, and available from the Avery Hill online shop.

Here’s a little trailer for Mike Medaglia’s comic Seasons, filmed on location at the Winter Gardens at Avery Hill. You can get a copy of the wonderful comic HERE.
Issue 4 of Reads is here, bringing you 44 pages of comics excellentness, closing out the first volume of Avery Hill’s first ever comics title in the process!
As ever, Reads features all new strips from the finest British based comics talent around – Tim Bird, Michael Gosden, Ricky Miller, Carlos Pascoa, Owen D. Pomery, Rebecca Strickson and MJ Wallace and Cameron Wallace, and with a flabbergasting cover from that man Bird, channelling his finest Hitchcock!
All that talent and wonder for the frankly ludicrous sum of £3.00 – dear lord help us, we don’t know how we do it.
No, really – we’re trying to work it out as we speak.
READS 4!
You can get it HERE.

What marks the seasons of a life?
In his new comic Seasons, Mike Medaglia (Wu Wei, The Comix Reader) seeks to understand that question, through four short stories by turns touching, funny, but always insightful, tied together by the rhythm of the natural world and the time his characters find themselves placed in their lives.
Seasons is a beautifully printed 28-page full-colour perfectly bound B5 book, with a fifth story printed on a special accompanying bookmark that recounts a stolen season of love that was, but should never have been.
“Mike Medaglia has provided the quintessential union of theme, words and imagery on the comics page.“
Andy Oliver, Broken […]
