What People Are Saying

“A tip of the hat too, to newcomer publisher Insomnia Publications for publishing Cancertown: they’re nurturing some fine new talents that would otherwise find publishing opportunities in short supply, and if this first title is any evidence of intent, then we can expect further treats in coming months.”

John Freeman, Down The Tubes


“Unlike so many other independent publications, Insomnia have given their writers and artists time to get the end product right and then produced a printed edition that has quality and is a pleasure to own. If all small publishers produced work on this scale then the big boys (Marvel, DC etc.) would definitely have a fight on their hands and their dominance would slip away. Already, Insomnia are proving they have the capability to produce work of a superior quality and the future should, hopefully, be very bright.”

Comic Shop Voice

“At the moment it seem that everything  Crawford Coutts, Managing Director of Insomnia Publications and his team touch turns to gold.”

Barry Nugent,  Geek Syndicate

The Indifference Engine The Indifference Engine

Responding to a strangely specific job advertisement, a distinctly ordinary twenty-something suburban slacker finds himself in the middle of an inter-dimensional task force staffed entirely by superhuman alternate versions of himself. Struggling to fit in, he uncovers a conspiracy that strikes at the very heart of the organisation – a conspiracy that only he can stop.
