Alashazam produced these colorful 5 pages, the artist did not follow exactly the "ppp toolkit", but made a nice variation featuring some apocalyptic zombies.

In this new 5 pages the action takes place in an post-apocalyptic destroyed city filled with zombies.

A nice addition to the existing komiks:

Octobriana vs the Robot 53121

This is a great Xmas present 

Here is the new 5 pages comics  by Clifford 

Following the previous episode, Octobriana is now in a swamp trying to locate an evil AI (artificial Intelligence)









The comic labelled 'Octobriana adventure 53121' was scheduled early 2023, 

So happy, it arrived earlier, this is the best present ever!

The comic artist Clifford is imitating the old comic style of the 1970s.

In this new 5 pages the action takes place in a swamp where an evil AI battle droid is probably lost, while Octobriana is rushing in with her motorcycle to save the day (or maybe not).

PS : This new Samizdat "53121" was generated with the PPP toolkit.

A Merry Christmas!

"Octobriana: The Underground History"

This is the last day of October, and as I promised to John A. Short here is my review for his masterpiece
"Octobriana: The Underground History"

John A. Short did a wonderful job, it is by far the most detailed and complete search I've seen - The book is 116 pages packed with Octobriana illustrations and references - it is a must have for all Octobriana fan, may I say it again ?
A Must have!


Reading the book, I could see the passion John has for Octobriana, in his effort to compile all the various traits of Octobriana into a comics that makes sense.
The other great thing about the book is that John has planted a lot of "opening" for new stories to come...

Just buy the book, you won't regret it - there are 300 copies only, don't wait!

New Octobriana book coming soon

Octobriana underground history

Author John a. Short is currently busy writing a book about public domain, communist super-heroine, Octobriana.

It will be out from Kult Creations later this year.
Here's some art from the new comic strip origin that will be featured in the book (written by me with art by Gabby Noble.) 
Above is an excerpt from http://kultcreations.blogspot.cz/2015/03/still-on-way.html

A little more information about the book : The page size will be roughly A5 : 16.5cm x 24cm.

It's a factual book about the creation of the character and her many uses since her birth (back in 1971).

It will most likely have color pages.

There will be one comic strip written by John and illustrated by (the mysterious) Gabrielle Noble. The full color strip is over 30 pages long and features a 14 pages flashback sequence which covers Octobriana's origin story.

There are rumors of a few industry names offering a few exclusive Octobriana illustrations, and it will be on sale later this year (October 2015, Maybe?!).

If interested dear reader, you can keep up to date with the book progress on http://kultcreations.blogspot.com

Komikfest 2014

October is Komikfest here in Prague 

and there were some Octobriana artwork by Czech author Karel Jerie


Octobriana always find a way to return.

Rockets boomed somewhere overhead
but she did not hear them.
Novas exploded in the galaxies
and she heard only the cry of migrating birds
right overhead
and those flocks drove her on.
The white woman's big breasts leap in the gallop.

Like a shot cougar
she roared her song.

New Octobriana Artwork


Octobriana as she would be appearing on a Manga or Anime
Original artwork commission made by mangakaonline.deviantart.com
and colored by "yours truly".

Definitely left-handed, for political reason.
In the black and white version, you might see 6 fingers on the left hand, I don't think it was intentional.

I just noticed a very interesting card design too - a paper collage with a very nice "underground" feel.

Another Octograph


Another Octobriana autograph by the talented Czech artist Dan Cerny


The last one from this 2012 Komiks Fest.

Mono-brow are not that bad.

Octograph


A sketch by the talented Czech artist Karel Jerie
Made during the 2012 Komiks Fest.

Octobriana joining hands in prayer that's not a very common pose. Or Maybe her prayer is that a revolution would start soon.

I finally got the joke about "Bobo the Final" - that was a reference to "Bohumil Konečný" alias Bimba one of the original artist of the book "Octobriana and the Russian Underground".

Konec means "The End" in Czech.

Bang!

As a reminder you'd be glad to know that there is another Octobriana comics in gestation and it should probably get in a completely different direction - A little Trina Robbins quote to tease the audience :
"It made us the first women to draw and write Octobriana. A number of guys have done her, and as always they've done her very badly!"

Is the War of the sexes starting all over again ...
