ROK Comics releases Team MOBILE – its first audio comic

 

Rok Comics announce first audio comic Team M.O.B.I.L.E. released
on iTunes

Lancaster, England, 12th April 2012:

ROK Comics, Britain’s dedicated mobile comics publisher, has published its first originated audio comic title for the iPad – TEAM M.O.B.I.L.E.

Featuring a fully authored audio soundtrack and its own theme tune, TEAM M.O.B.I.L.E.
is the exciting story of teenage secret agents battling dangerous enemies across the globe.

An ongoing adventure story, the first issue of TEAM M.O.B.I.L.E., centres on the story of
misfit duo Maisy Brown and Sam Thompson, who are recruited into a secret organisation to battle crime, terrorism and other dangers.

TEAM M.O.B.I.L.E. is the creation of ROK Group PLC co-founder Jonathan Kendrick.

Jonathan has long harboured an ambition to marry comics with sound and published on mobile devices including the iPad and iPhone.
Inspired by a love of James Bond and comics, he came up with the back story for the
comic, including its top secret ‘MindMerge’ technology and gadgets.

“We are really pleased with the originality and quality of our first audio comic which
has just been published on the iTunes store and we look forward to developing the story
further,” said Jonathan.

The strip is written by John Freeman from storylines by Jonathan Kendrick, with art
by Andrew Chiu. Kris Carter is colouring the title, with Jim Campbell providing
lettering and logos.

John’s credits include work for Marvel, Judge Dredd Megazine and Black Ops Extreme
for STRIP – The Comic Magazine, but he’s perhaps better known as an editor, for ROK

The soundtrack, which complements the strip action, features the voices of both
