BHP Comics Spotlight Titles:
1. Tomorrow, 49 pages – Published by BHP Comics

2. Plagued: The Miranda Chronicles, 162 pages – Published by BHP Comics
The near future. Scotland has been left devastated by a plague that has swept the country. The scattered population struggle to survive from day to day. And the blame for this pandemic falls squarely on ‘witches’ – seemingly ordinary people with extra-ordinary powers- who are hunted down and forced to stand trial by government sanctioned witch-hunters.
Story and Art by Gary Chudleigh and Tanya Roberts
3. Maximum Alan, 89 pages – Published by BHP Comics
For the first time ever, BHP releases a collected Maximum Alan. The cult hit from our early small press days brings a fictional Alan Moore into a world of adventure as he takes on a multiverse of Alan Moores.
