Hello!

OUR MISSING ZINE HAS ARRIVED!

Issue #5, due for release on May 1st, 2011 went M.I.A. last year after being sent to the wrong address. We’ve been trying to track down the order of zines ever since, and by some small miracle we can’t believe what arrived at our doorstep today!

If you would like a copy of the loooooooooooong awaited and highly anticipated issue #5 (we don’t like to brag, but think it might be our best one yet), you can grab one now from our store: http://paperbrains.etsy.com

The illustration above was designed for us by issue #5’s featured artist, Paul Johnson, who also illustrated the front cover especially for PAPERBRAINS, and who features in an in-depth interview inside.

Hi!

You can e-mail a sample of your work to paperbrains@gmail.com which could include text, images or a link to an online portfolio.

Hope you get in touch! 

Hello! Issue #4 is now back in stock. It’s available from paperbrains.etsy.com, or for a reduced price by emailing paperbrains@gmail.com!

At last! A preview of issue #5. The gorgeous front cover was designed especially for PAPERBRAINS by Paul X Johnson, and the issue goes on sale at the beginning of May.

It’s been a long Winter, but we’re coming out of hibernation with this issue bursting full of the art, photography and writing that we love to showcase!

Fancy being involved in an upcoming issue? Email PAPERBRAINS@gmail.com for more information, or to send us samples of your work.

Issues #3 & #4 are still in stock. Visit paperbrains.etsy.com!

It’s here!

The PAPERBRAINS office is in a packaging frenzy at the moment, awash with copies of the fantastic issue #4! You can pick up your copy from http://paperbrains.etsy.com or by emailing paperbrains@gmail.com if you don’t use Etsy.

Thanks to everyone who has ordered so far, and for all our marvellous and super-talented contributors!

Here’s the contents page for our fourth issue to give our readers an idea of what we have in stock for October and November. We’ve never featured so many different artists!

We’re glad our fans are getting so excited about this issue - half of the first run has already sold out, before the zine has even arrived. If you’d like to pre-order a copy (which will be dispatched on 29th October), email paperbrains@gmail.com !

Here’s the front cover for issue #4, designed especially for PAPERBRAINS by this issue’s featured artist, Caitlin Shearer.

The issue is released at the end of the month to tie in with Halloween, as it celebrates all things creepy, curious and sometimes plain cute!

‘Like’ us on Facebook for more pictures to be added soon! http://www.facebook.com/PAPERBRAINS

US readers (and readers closer to the US than the UK) can now find our zines in stock at ComiXPress.com. This means almost half the shipping fee than it would be from England!

To celebrate reaching 100 members on our Facebook page, we’ve decided to show our supporters that we like them too (quite a lot, in fact).

To win a FREE copy of issue #3 become a fan of us on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/paperbrains) and “like” the status that announces we’ve reached 100 members.

The winner will be revealed in a week’s time.

The prize is made even more special as our first run of issue #3 has sold out entirely, this truly is the last copy!

Here’s our scrummy contents page for issue #3, behold it in all of its rainbow-coloured glory!

We almost have 100 “fans” on Facebook. Make yourself one of them, and when we reach the big 100 we’ll begin a draw for fans of our Facebook page for a free copy of issue #3! Check it out, http://www.facebook.com/paperbrains

Want your copy now? Either visit our Etsy (http://paperbrains.etsy.com) or email paperbrains@gmail.com for a slightly reduced price. Only 3 copies of our first run of Issue #3 remain - thanks to everyone who has bought one so far, and thank you for reblogging our last post!
