The Hard Switch Launch Party With Owen D. Pomery

We can't wait for the launch party of The Hard Switch, a new sci-fi comic from Owen D. Pomery and published by Avery Hill. Owen will be in the shop on Friday 20th October 2023, from 7-9pm.

Owen D. Pomery (British Ice, Victory Point) has an architectural background which beautifully fused into his illustrative work to create stunning drawings that compliment his immersive narrative. We can't wait to be completely engrossed in this compelling sci-fi world and absorb Owen's masterful line-work. Here are some words from the publisher:

An engrossing science fiction graphic novel about a spaceship’s crew tackling the changes in their lives and work at the moment when they – and everyone else in the galaxy – begin to run out of fuel.


Ada, Haika, and Mallic are on a mission . . . one last mission, before everything, everywhere shuts down. They’re raiding old, abandoned spaceships and wrecks for the (sometimes-expensive) parts – and they make just enough money to get by. But living their nomadic, exploring life isn’t sustainable when they can’t afford fuel anymore.

The time is coming when the mineral that makes inter-system jumps possible runs out. When it does, the scattered inhabitants of the vast galaxy will be stuck where they are. Everything will be different . . . unless the discovery in the latest wreck Ada, Haika, and Mallic are scavenging can unlock a whole new kind of interstellar transit.


Owen will be here to launch The Hard Switch on Friday 20th October, from 7pm. Pick up a signed bookplate edition of the comic that is exclusive to Gosh! from our website for mail-order or collection by clicking the link here.
