is an ongoing creative project, informed and inspired by The Pulp Magazines, Hard-boiled Crime Literature, Popular Television Shows and Global Underground Fetish Culture of the Mid-Twentieth Century.
In text and illustration the project will grow to explore the denizens and environs of an alternative world of the 1960s, in a series of interlocking, convergent tales.
A vaguely familiar London is the backdrop to a thousand stories in a world where Japan did not feel the terror of the atomic bomb, the space race is on the brink of being won, atomic batteries power the needs of civilization and the ‘Newton Gear’ has revolutionized the fundamentals of travel across the globe.
In the alleyways of Britain’s capital, the vigilantes stand side by side with the police in the fight against increasing lawlessness across the city, and in the shadows, above and below, the machinations of evil and corruption gather like an unstoppable storm cloud.
Welcome to the world of BPN.
