Her favourite character is the shark ‘because he’s a nice shark’. She said ‘I love the colours in the comic and I hope the next comic will show me how to draw the shark!’”

A brand-new reading adventure for curious kids

The Beyond was created by Andy Goodridge, a Godalming-based designer, illustrator and author, alongside a growing crew of UK-based authors, comic artists and illustrators bringing their own stories to every issue.

“I love stories, drawing and making things. The Beyond is my attempt to create something kids genuinely want to get stuck into. Every story is written and illustrated by hand, and every issue is designed one page at a time.”
