Alexander "Ally" Sloper is the eponymous fictional character of the British comic strip Ally Sloper. First appearing in 1867, he is one of the earliest characters in comic strips. Red-nosed and blustery, an archetypal lazy schemer often found "sloping" through alleys to avoid his landlord and other creditors, he was created for the British magazine Judy by writer and fledgling artist Charles H. Ross, and inked and later fully illustrated by his French wife Émilie de Tessier under the pseudonym "Marie Duval" (or "Marie Du Val";. The strips, which used text narrative beneath unbordered panels, premiered in the 14 August 1867 issue of Judy, a humour-magazine rival of the famous Punch. The highly popular character was spun off into his own comic, Ally Sloper's Half Holiday, in 1884. Ben R Dilworth has previously drawn Sloper for Black Tower but here he gets right back to what Sloper was all about and anyone familiar with Dilworth's work will realise that he is probably the only modern era artist who could do Sloper along with social commentary.

The Special Globe Guard (SGG) a world-wide network of super heroes and adventurers who can be called upon whenever an overwhelming threat -Global or local- rises. The UK section is headed by war veteran Captain Samson Tornado and apart from a few over boisterous members to contend with everything seems to be as quiet as it can be.

Out of the blue Spellcaster appears and warns of a hostile fascist take over of a parallel Earth. Not something the SGG would deal with but in this case it is claimed that the Dark Lord Kaos has resurrected two of Tornado's war time enemies and they are planning a massive attack on the SGGs Earth.

Determined to deal with his old enemies Tornado heads off for the war torn Earth with Spellcaster and a small team... but everything is not what it seems.

This volume contains a preview of Black Tower Super Heroes vol. 2 No. 2: The Ultimate Game!

Everything Done But Proof checking

 

 All three interior files and covers for Trump, Hurricane Hurry and Ally Sloper completed. Now it's upload, get a to check things (yes, the company charges you to make sure they have had the printing done properly) then post that they are available to buy.

Two people who have had a preview of Trump have already pre-ordered so maybe I'll send a copy to the Whitehouse?
