If someone involved in a series is a Broken Frontier Award winner you know anything they’re involved is going to be worth checking out.

More info and some teasing preview art below!
The crew of the HMS THUNDER CHILD have been through hell – but now they face certain doom against the fearsome might of the Martian War Machines.
The cataclysmic conclusion. The final tragic stand. But there is more to this story than just sacrifice.
From writers Rob Jones and Matthew Hardy, artist Kevin Castaniero and colourist Simon Gough comes the thrilling final issue of the Thunder Child series.
Set within the narrative of H.G. Wells’ beloved War of the Worlds, we’ve followed the crew from the confusion and mystery of the early moments of the Martian invasion, through to the last gasps of a dying Empire in war-torn London, and now, they sally forth to a date with destiny on the Black Water.
Issue Three of Thunder Child is now funding on Kickstarter and has currently smashed its way through its target and is well into stretch-goal territory.
A print by Martin Simmonds has been unlocked for all physical backers and there are rewards that will never ever be produced again for the discerning fan of H.G. Wells.
