Captain Kidd

"I Thought I Was Undone..."

A story about the history and mystery of Scottish pirate, Captain William Kidd,

raising funds for Man On Inverclyde - supporting mental health.

I Thought I Was Undone 
The Ballad of Captain Kidd

Mark is organising the final exhibition in a museum which is about to close.

With weeks until he and his colleagues are made redundant, he has chosen to explore the life and legend of the doomed Scottish pirate, Captain William Kidd.

As he digs into the strange story of the pirate, and wanders the blurred line between fact and fiction, history and myth, Mark begins to realise there is something strange going on at the museum...

I Thought I Was Undone is written by Paul Bristow with artwork by Andy Lee, featuring buried treasure, secret maps, sea shanties, courtroom drama, 
creatures from beyond and unreliable photocopiers.
(Recommended for readers 12+ due to some slightly messy moments 
and language of a piratical nature.)

Raising funds for mental health support

I Thought I Was Undone is the final piece of work we completed with our long time collaborator Andy Lee. 

Andy worked on many of our early projects, delivering workshops all over the country with us and helping us create comics which ranged from formal historical pieces through to cosmic terror and Ninja Bananas. Nothing phased him.

Andy died from suicide in November 2018. 

We had decided to shelve the book, until a chance meeting with Andy's family made us think again. We really wanted to share Andy's work and so decided to publish it after all. 

All profits from the sale of the book will be donated to Man On Inverclyde, a suicide prevention peer support service based in Greenock  - our home town and the legendary birth place of Captain Kidd.
