The two main characters are Jo and Hal, though things are very much in the earlt stages, so no idea where it'll end up eventually :p The rest are quick half baked ideas for miscellanous aliens that might populate the story ...

With the "Decelarate Blue" project still in hiatus, still awaiting a long awaited final script, started a bunch of new designs for a new story I'm working with Mike Carey on, a sci-fi setting with aliens and gadgets :p

Malinky Robot review
A review of the Malinky Robot french collection, CanalBD magazine:
http://sonnyliew.com/blog/malinky_canalbd%202%20copie.jpg
The translation is something along the lines of :
"By launching their new label Bao, Paquet want to create a place for freedom where artists from all backgrounds (geographic and cultural) can meet and work together. To initiate this approcah, they could not find a better fit than sonny liew....mixing all influences with a lot of bravado, his book is a pure pleasure. Relying on art full of nuances and subtlety, these four short stories lay the groundwork to a very engrossing universe, while at the same time daring to develop striking graphical effects. "
