Reel Heroes. Individual sleeves

A bit late, but here you go. Some of our best work has just hit the shelves of HMV. Please support great creative initiatives and purchase one of these babies. A massive thanks to Universal and Carlie Spiteri who’s idea this whole thing was. Thanks too to Universal UK’s Maya Jenkins and last-but-by-no-means-least our very own Super Hero Illustrator Rafal Szymanski. Well done lad, you can have as many fag breaks as you want from now on. You’ve earned them.

Some flattering tweets for Reel Heroes go like this:

@edgarwright Edgar Wright (director)
The good people at @wearehicksville have done some great new artwork for Shaun/Fuzz/Pilgrim as an @HMVTweets exclusive. http://www.edgarwrighthere.com/2011/08/11/reel-heroes-hmv-exclusive-sotdhf-and-spvtw-uk-limited-edition-dvdblu-ray-packaging/

@edgarwright @wearehicksville Working at HMV I get to stare at these awesome covers all day and now I own them too!

I wish @wearehicksville could design the actual world from now on…it would look amazing!

Hicksville closes Design Week

Or more accurately we should say, we see out the last ever hard copy of Design Week with a front cover mention for our comic book re-sleeve project for Universal Pictures, ‘Reel Heroes’. We’ll blog more about this when we’re allowed to. Click here for the online version of the article.

So long printed Design Week, a british institution. Hicksville salutes you.
