Hello and welcome to our latest update.
We're getting ever closer to a full set of pencilled pages. Mike Collins, for instance, has now pencilled all his pages, and those pages are now being inked by Gary. Meanwhile, Ian has nearly finished his allocation.
Paul McCaffrey, however, has completed his pages, and they are now being coloured. Here's another of his superb pages:
We're absolutely over the moon with Paul's work, and, as with all the completed pages, we can't wait to show the coloured versions. In the meantime, however, we look forward to showing more inked pages from Mike, Gary and Ian.

Recently we revealed the first of Patrick Goddard's new pages for First Men on Mars #1. Today we would like to show you another of Patrick's pages.
We're absolutely thrilled with this page, and we can't wait to see it coloured.
That's it for today, but we'll be back soon with more new artwork.
Very best,

As you know, we at E.M.PRESS live and breath sequential art. We love creating it and we love reading it. We're particularly enamoured with indie comics and graphic novels, which is why we back, read and promote so many here on Kickstarter. Oxygen is the latest to catch our eye.
Created by comic book and storyboard artist, Andrew Wildman, this Kickstarter is raising the funds required to publish Andrew's existing seven issue mini-series in a handsome hardback edition.
A sci-fi story, Oxygen tells the story of an astronaut marooned on a barren planet. Wrestling with brain fog and a complete lack of memories, he finds himself reliant on A.I. drone who seems to be guiding him toward a secret destination. Where is the drone leading him? And to what end?
Having worked for Marvel, Rebellion, the BBC and more, Andrew sports an impressive pedigree. That's just one of the reasons we can't wait to get our grubby hands on this superb book.
There are, at the time of writing, only five days left on this campaign, but the book is already fully-funded and now approaching its first stretch goal.
Back it here.
