About Paul

Paul BristowPaul Bristow writes comics, children's fiction, ghost stories and folktales, sometimes all at once.

Paul is the founder of Magic Torch Comics CIC, who work all over Scotland to help people tell stories using comics. Those stories have included moments from Scottish history, forgotten folklore and superhero epics – all created collaboratively with young people and a team of artists.

You can read some of those comics online for free, including the current project, Multiverse Academy, a year-long comic story created in community workshops.
