FutureQuake
FutureQuake is a British small press comic book founded by Arthur Wyatt, and later edited by Richmond Clements and David Evans. Dedicated to showcasing work by new writers and artists, they publish mostly self-contained comic stories, preferably of 5 pages or less and usually of a sci-fi/fantasy/horror bent. Under their FutureQuake Press imprint (FQP) they also published the Japanese Manga-influenced anthology "MangaQuake" and the horror comic "Something Wicked". FQP also published other comics, and took over "Dogbreath", the "Strontium Dog" fanzine and "Zarjaz", the general "2000 AD" fanzine. 39 issues of "FutureQuake" were published  until publication went on hiatus following the death of David Evans in May 2021. Contributors. "FutureQuake" plays host to a wide range of contributors, including first time writers and artists, up-and-coming small press personalities and established creators. Past issues have featured the likes of Alan Grant, Arthur Ranson, Al Ewing, Stewart McKenny, PJ Holden, Arthur Wyatt, Inaki Miranda & Eva de la Cruz, Adrian Bamforth, Matt Timson, Michael Molcher, Paul Scott and Charlie Adlard. Staff. The staff in 2021 were: Previous members: FutureQuake Press output. Though "FutureQuake" was ostensibly open to any form of submission from anyone who chose  to do so, there were certain forms and themes to which the comic adheres. As an anthology, the stories often featured a moralistic 'twist' at the end, much in the same style as EC Comics's science fiction and horror comics like "Weird Science" and "The Vault of Horror", as well as 2000 AD's "Future Shocks". However, the stories were not necessarily bound by this. Awards. Fanzine of the Month in "SFX" for FutureQuake #5 MangaQuake. "MangaQuake" moves away from the "FutureQuake" format, opting instead for longer stories less reliant on the narrative structure of the 'twist', clearly influenced  by the Japanese manga comics form. Awards. Fanzine of the Month in "SFX" for MangaQuake #2 Something Wicked. "Something Wicked" was the third title launched. The horror comic directly parallels and references the horror titles published by EC Comics and those published by Atlas during the 1950s. Issues. There have been ten issues so far. Awards. Fanzine of the Month in "SFX". Others. They have published or agreed to take over publishing a number of titles all of which are not part of the core FQP titles (above).
