Horror on-the-go
News
Finally some big guns (Marvel, CBS mobile and publishing house Scribner) have opened their eyes wide to the potential of mobile entertainment. Their Killer Content project for small screen mobile platforms is a graphic novel/video series hybrid called "N", created by none other than the King of Terror Stephen King and esteemed graphic novelist Alex Maleev ('Daredevil Vol 2'). Starting July 28, you can get your 2-minute King fix every weekday till August 25; that's 25 episodes of horror on-the-go. Watch the first episode for free and judge for yourself if you think 25 episodes of "N" is worth the 4 bucks (for free if you're in the US and with one of the large mobile carriers).
The story of “N” is just very Stephen King. In a nutshell: Psychiatrist falls victim to one of his patient's deadly obessions. But King's talent for storytelling and Maleev's dark art are a perfect match. The atmospheric graphic novel style combined with sparse animation is very reminiscent of SubmarineChannel's interactive comic book adaptation The Killer, which was developed specially for the Web way back in 2001.

Animationbull has been, for the last three years, developing the same kind of animation work you have reviewed. We would like you to have a look at it. Our company showed this work at the last 2007 Nontzeflash Festival as a short entitled \'Stonehenge\'s Doors\', which is still accessible through the festival\'s website and through our own blog from 15 May 2007. In early 2008, our animation work was also selected to participate in the Granada Futura Film Festival.
