Build a Graphic Novel with Edward Ross From Tue 12 Aug - The perfect workshop for budding artists and aspiring storytellers…

Just two weeks until my 'Build a Graphic Novel' workshop at @edbookfest.bsky.social! Aimed at young people aged 12-14 interested in making comics! www.edbookfest.co.uk/the-festival...

Cover for Interstellar Taco Truck #1 by Edward Ross. A colourful illustrated image in a fun, cartoony style. We see a dinky spaceship painted neon pink and blue, landed on a dusty planet. The ship is shaped a bit like a taco, with a smiling face in its headlights and front grill. A queue of alien customers line up - a barbarian bird, a hairy cyclops-sasquatch thing, and so on. Through the access hatch we see the kitchen inside - Kit a bequiffed, elf-like alien skooshes green sauce on a taco. Behind him a robotic fungi panics over a flaming stove. Atop the ship sits human girl Ari who wears yellow overalls and is munching a taco, next to her trusty toolbox.

Comic page from Interstellar Taco Truck #1 by Edward Ross. We see a dimly lit spaceship bunk room in the background, with human girl Ari poking her head around the door. In the foreground, top lit by roof light, we see five aliens crowding round a table, playing a table-top game with hex tiles and colourful cards. The table is covered in bowls of snacks and cans of drink. There’s a cyclops-sasquatch looking alien, a frog-like one wearing a cap, a sentient tree wearing a yellow jumper, a barbarian bird (birbarian) and a red striped spider-looking creature. In the final panel we see the birbarian flinging snacks into her mouth. Text reads: “It’s hard being a human in space. See, we were late to the party. Zysquatches, Birbarians, Froglodytes... they'd all mastered interstellar flight centuries ago. Their species reached out across light years to discover new civilisations, and more importantly... new snacks!”

Comic page from Interstellar Taco Truck #1 by Edward Ross. We see human kid Ari enter a small kitchen onboard the spaceship. It’s teeming with kitchen equipment recognisable and futuristic, and shelves crammed with colourful packets. “The food here suuucks, and we're stuck with whatever they packed on board when we set off from Earth. Fortunately, I'm pretty good at rooting out the good stuff.” She starts raking through cupboards looking for interesting food. As she pulls cans out of a cupboard, we hear a voice from off panel: "Making a little midnight snack, I see!”

Comic page from Interstellar Taco Truck #1 by Edward Ross. We see a montage of cooking. Alien kid Kit’s blue hand grabs a pan, sets a pink flame ablaze under it, grabs a knife from a rack, then some marshmallows and a banana. We see him chopping ingredients. Ari leans over his shoulder: What are you doing? Kit: What does it look like? Cooking! Don't you cook? Ari leans on a yellow microwave looking device: Not if I can help it. Oh, unless Quantum-blasting counts? Kit flips the ingredients in the pan, smiling: It doesn’t!

Come say hello at Table 66 at the Hilton Double Tree Glasgow 2nd August @sequential-scot.bsky.social . I look a wee bit like Lorcan from Stramash except I am shorter and have no scar and if my face is red it’s poor diet not an artistic choice. There are a load of other exciting exhibitors as well

excited to be tabling at sequential scotland on saturday along with my friends who are actual professional comics artists–i will have a selection of zines and a deeply silly new interview with the vampire related item x pls come!

In issue 1 we meet human kid Ari, bored out of her mind on a long interstellar trip to her new home across the universe. When disaster strikes during a hunt for a midnight snack, she’s thrust together with alien kid Kit as they fight for survival!
