Having grown up as part of the Cornwall skate scene during the 1980s and 1990s, Ed Syder here recalls the thrills, the spills, the romance, the glamour and the obsessive nature of a sport which is important to so many. Illustrated with Ed's distinctive high-impact b/w art which made him the star of the Manchester music poster scene, My Skateboard Life is a book that will resonate with skaters of all ages!

After 15 years of clamouring from fans, the Hugo Tate series is finally collected in a single volume. Beginning his life in print as a stick-man in a figuratively drawn world, readers witness the eponymous Hugo visually develop alongside the comic itself. Originally conceived as an acerbic humour strip, Hugo rapidly developed into a British equivalent to Love & Rockets - filled with a richly developed cast and a branching web of stories of life in London. Includes commentary from Nick Abadzis and a foreword by Gareth Ennis.
