Lancaster, England, 2 October 2008: ROK Comics, a subsidiary of the ROK Entertainment Group Inc. (OTCBB: ROKE), the global mobile entertainment company, is pleased to announce that the winner of its 2008 ROK and A Hard Place Comics Competition, run in association with the Birmingham International Comic Show, is British comics artist Ian Stacey.

Working in partnership with BICS (www.thecomicsshow.co.uk), ROK Comics threw down the challenge to creators to create a comic revealing a life changing moment.

'The Noah strips works on every level,' felt James Broxton, who judged the winners from a high quality shortlist along with indie comics distributor Shane Chebsey, owner of Smallzone Comics, and also a BICS organiser. 'It’s a nice job, and Ian is a deserved winner.'

'It’s fantastic news,' said Ian on learning of his win, 'Thank you very much and thanks also for finding my work a new home.'

Freelance cartoonist and illustrator Ian had already won high acclaim for his ongoing strip Wet Paint before taking the plunge and bringing it to ROK Comics for web and mobile distribution. 'There’s some very funny material that made me laugh out loud,' says Monty Python team member Terry Jones, while top comic creator Alan Grant has described Ian as 'an exceptionally funny cartoonist.

'He aims at just about every target under the sun, from genetic modification to Batman, and hits the mark in every case.'

Ian recently began offering a collection of many of his Wet Paint cartoons for sale via his web site (www.ianstacey.net), with all proceeds going to the Big Issue Foundation.

 'When we first discussed the idea of a competition to tie in with BICS we were determined to stretch comic creators from the get go,' says ROK Comics Managing Editor John Freeman. 'The cartoonists rose to the challenge, with some great entries.'

 'We wanted comics with someone telling the story of a difficult choice they've had to make in their life,' said Shane. 'It certainly made a change from superheroes.'

"We at BICS love the way that ROK Comics is so accessible to both creators and readers,' Shane adds, 'and feel that working together we can help to bring the wonderful medium of comics to a wider readership. Mobile phones are now the most widely used method of communication in the world, so it seems the perfect way to present new comics to more people than ever before".

ROK Comics delivers the means for both comic publishers and creators to reach a worldwide audience by delivering comics to mobile phones, either by WAP subscription of Pay Per Download via Multi Media Messaging (MMS).

Creators publishing professionally via ROK Comics will receive up to 50% of the available revenue on every sale, with full access to sales statistics, viewings and more.
