FLUX

Branching out into other creative arenas, over the past five years I have been writing, illustrating and self publishing my own Sci-Fi Comic Series. I describe it as a love letter to the science fiction I have been obsessed with since childhood, from Star Wars, to Blade Runner, to The Expanse. Please do check it out here.

Awake (One Step at a Time).

It has been over six years since our last album released, and since we last played live. We'd grown disillusioned, the effort was great, the reward was minimal, and the fun was lost. Whether things will ever return to what they were is unknown, but I have always said The Gifted was not dead, merely sleeping.

These past few days, I have found myself back in the studio, playing with new ideas. The drive to make music seems to have returned again. Awake.

I have been thinking about what this means. My focus now is my writing, my comic / graphic novel, and this will be my focus and priority for years to come. How does making music and The Gifted fit into this?

There are ideas and plans brewing, to make music again, but on my own terms at my own pace. I find myself at the beginning of a new project, with a clear goal, but I do not know how long it will take me to reach completion.

One step at a time.

- Andy.

Flux, Comic Book by The Gifted Front Man

Andy has published the first chapter of new science fiction comic book series Flux.

It is available from his official website www.andyjclarke.co.uk, as well as Comixology and through the official The Gifted Store.

500 years from now, Earth is abandoned, no longer habitable. Humanity now lives in orbit of the deserted planet and has spread into the solar system.

Two people from different times find their lives thrust into chaos, their paths leading them into the midst of a buried secret, that once revealed, will change humanity's past, present and future.
