News of a cosmopolitan publishing venture, from the Sequential mailbox:

Hi,

My name is Jonny Kearns.
I am developing a magazine is to be a collaboration between Canada / New Zealand and perhaps in the future, it having full distribution in both countries.
My wife is from Canada so it's like a second home to me.
I would love it if you would supply some work that you would think would be suitable. As well as being a comic we are also interested in all art and talented artists, stand up comedy (written of course). Anything that gets a laugh.
Other works in the publication will range from humorous articles, interviews to things based on popular culture (piss takes of block buster movies etc) and even street art. Also bogus (humourous) ads & humours bogus newspaper articles.
Something I am very interested in is international politics, so political cartoons (domestic and international) also are great as well. We are looking at a publication that ranges from Mad magazine to Viz (english comic - you'll know it) to 2000AD (Judge Dredd etc) to Time magazine.
Basically anything you can send would be fantastic.
Unfortuately at this stage (this will be the first issue) I will be unable to pay you but I will send you a copy and list your website / contact details etc in the publication.

I am endeavouring to have artwork / strips confirmed asap and finished artwork / articles supplied to me by the 15th June so hopefully I can go to print at the end of June.
