Goodbye to Ray

The latest edition of Solar Wind, the Solar Wind Summer Special is out now, the biggest and (dare I say it) best issue we have produced to date, weighing in at a daunting 68 pages of retro comic fun.

It is also the last issue.

It's been a fantastic and sometimes fraught journey, but it's time to say goodbye to Cosmic Ray and his loyal Androits and Drones. Trying to put out two comics, OVS once a year and Solar Wind twice annually has proved to be beyond my resources, and Solar Wind has now finished.

But, if it has a legacy, then it's that it has encouraged lots of people who perhaps wouldn't have ever made their own comic to go off an do just that. In total there were 11 issues of Solar Wind, Sunny and Big War comic, totally nearly 600 pages of material and I hope you've been entertained along the way.

We've won awards and rave reviews, we've had good times and bad, but this really is, Goodbye Ray.

Many thanks to everyone involved over the years, but especially to Gareth Whitty, who has been willing to listen to my rantings, ravings and ramblings and without whom there would never have been a Solar Wind.

For the last time...

Stay Cosmic!
