THE SLATE PROMISE!
IT ALL STARTED IN A GARAGE IN WESTERN SYDNEY, THE PIPE DREAM THAT EVENTUALLY BECAME A REALITY.
5 YEARS AGO 2 BOYS FROM WESTERN SYDNEY THREW UP THE IDEA OF CREATING THEIR OWN COMIC CHARACTERS WHICH EVENTUALLY LED INTO BECOMING THE COMPANY YOU SEE BEFORE YOU TODAY.
THE SLATE COMIC COMPANY STRIDES TOWARDS AN IDEAL IMAGE OF GREAT CHARACTERS WITH AMAZING STORIES TO ACCOMIDATE THEM & THE BATTLES THEY FACE ON THIER PATH TOWARDS DESTINY.
WERE BRINING COMICS BACK TO WHERE THEY BELONG… AND THATS WITH THE PEOPLE. THATS OUR PROMISE!
WE HAVE A STORY OR 2 TO TELL & WE HOPE YOU GUYS CAN JOIN US ON THIS AMAZING JOURNEY WE ARE EMBARKING ON.
SO… IN THE WORDS OF AC/DC
ARE YOU READY!

LACHLAN BRADLEY
ARTIST OF THE SLATE COMICS TITLE “JAGER” & FREELANCE ARTIST FOR THE INDIE COMICS COMMUNITY.
LACHLAN STARTED DRWAING WHEN HE WAS JUST A CHILD, ATTEMPTING TO FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF HIS OLDER BROTHER AS MOST YOUNGER SIBLINGS DO, WHERE HE QUICKLY FOUND A STRONG APPRECIATION FOR VISUAL ARTS. MANY LUNCH TIMES WERE SPENT DRAWING IN THE LIBRARY OF HIS SCHOOL CREATING STRANGE & QUIRKY COMICS. THIS PASSION FOLLOWED HIM THROUGHOUT MOST OF HIS TEENAGE YEARS UNTIL HES STARTED TO BRANCH OUT AND EXPLORRE OTHER ARTISTIC MEDIUMS SUCH AS FILM AND PHOTOGRAPHY, WHILE STILL PERFECTING HIS DRAWING ROOTS IN THE PROCESS. IT WASNT UNTIL LATE 2019 WHEN LACHLAN SET HIMSELF THE GOAL OF LANDING A JOB IN THE COMICS INDUSTRY. LACHLAN STILL CONTINUES TO SPEND A GREAT DEAL OF HIS DAYS STUDYING THE FUNDAMENTALS AND FELLOW COMICS ARTIST STYLES TO REFINE HIS OWN UNIQUE STYLE SO THAT HE CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE VAST IMPROVEMENTS WITH EVERY PRODUCED PIECE.
