Monkey Nukes


Monkey Nukes https://buff.ly/2RzBUxz is a 102-page, slice of life, full color comic written and illustrated by Simon Mackie and Ben Rowdon.

Set in 1984 West London, a group of friends strengthen existing bonds and form new ones around the opening of a Scottish vegetarian bar, the Monkey Nukes! Over the course of a year the group of writers, artists, and other free spirits explore the depths of their friendships and nature of their relationships. Among the sexually adventurous, drug addicted, and entrepreneurs one central character emerges that connects them all, Adam. Adam’s story of self-discovery carries the reader through the streets, pubs, and apartments of West London where we are introduced to an assortment of unique and interesting personalities. Each character is driven by their own individual motivations and ideologies. They each have their own voice that we hear through Adam’s ears as he attempts to navigate the confusing relationships he has with each of them. Through it all Adam leads the reader across a journey of love, loss, and discovery.

Simon and Ben create an endearing story filled with memorial and relatable characters. The minimalist style of the art makes this slice of life story feel honest and genuine. You can meet the cast of characters and experience their story at Monkey Nukes https://buff.ly/2RzBUxz
