Tripwire Magazine

Tripwire started life as a print fanzine back in 1992. Since then it has evolved into a full colour quarterly print magazine and a well respected website covering the worlds of comics, film, TV and genre.

Joel Meadows has been the editor-in-chief of Tripwire, the UK’s pre-eminent print magazine and website dedicated to comics and genre for many decades.  He has also worked as a freelance journalist for publications like Empire, SFX, Creative Bloq and others. He has interviewed every major mover and shaker in the worlds of comics and genre like Matt (The Simpsons) Groening, Frank Miller (The Dark Knight Returns), Alan (Watchmen, V For Vendetta) Moore and Guillermo del Toro (Oscar winning director, Pinocchio, The Shape of Water) to name just a few.

Since 2020, Meadows has co-created and written award-winning graphic novel series Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders with artist Andy Bennett, a series that has included exclusive covers from the likes of veteran comics creator Walt Simonson (Thor, Manhunter), Batman and Conan artist Dan Panosian, Batman: The Last Halloween artist Mark Chiarello and others.
2026 sees his first prose novella, Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders: Down and Out In London.
