Just read I Kill Giants

This!

It's awesome. As I was nearing the end I was blubbing like a schoolgirl and had to hide 'cos some people out the window saw me and I didn't want to be caught crying at a comic book. I remember checking it out for the art when it was out in singles and I never really stuck with it (I always forget to buy singles. I tried to collect Incognito by Sean Phillips & Ed Brubaker but it's already on issue..3? 4? When the hell did that happen?!), but IKG works fantastically as a BIG TRADE BOOK. Writing's great, the art's great, well worth whatever needs to be paid to get it. Yeah!!

Rockfall news; I still haven't built any new copies yet. I'm gonna rework it a bit, do a new cover and have it ready for 176 I reckon. I've had 4 copies in the comic shop for weeks now, I sold one! Which is great! :D Then Kit took in his beautiful Little Red Ronin comic and sold out in a few days. Damn! I need to get some chicks, in colour, on the cover. :D XD Selling at cons is much easier than selling in a shop I've decided, gotta up my game.

I might also have another comic for 176, but I really need to get my ass in gear for that so maybe not.

Yep! :D

update

Hi! First off an apology; I'm kinda theming my website and journal around Rockfall, the scifi thing I finished a few weeks ago, but there's none of it online and there aren't any left to buy! I suck! So yeah, sorry about that. I have another 12-page Rockfall story I want to serialise online, so I reckon I'll soon be posting that. Sit tight! :D There are a few copies left in Chaos City Comics in St. Albans tho, if you're interested and local. :)

Another apology; I'm messing around with Journal stuff, so this is all gonna be bonkers around here for a wee while. I wanna use this as the front page of my website eventually so I'm kickin' it into shape! It hurts! ;_;but YEAH! Comics update! The UK Webcomix Thing went really well, sold loads of comics and met loads of cool people! I'm totally planning on highlighting the comics I bought and loved, there were a lot! :D I'm gonna try and do that this weekend.

The next comic I'm working on isn't Rockfall, it's another thing, and if I've spoken to you over the last few weeks about what it is, it isn't that. But it's gonna be awesome, and finished in time for 176 on the 27th June in London. Tho I haven't written it yet. O_O aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I've been inspired by Two Lane Blacktop, and while it's not really gonna be like that I'm gonna be channelling its awesome. :D



Finally, Kit Wallis was exhibiting with me at the Thing the other week, but his site has stopped working! noo! I'll post where when it's back! It should be on www.kitwallis.com. In the meantime any comments here will get to him; he sits on my left at work, so any comments or physical abuse left here will be duly passed on, you betcha :D

Anyway. Back to the great CSS battle. POW!

no art here argh!

Sorry! no art. My sketch-a-days have fallen by the wayside a bit, not only because of timmy mallet not being cool anymore, but also because I have been working on COMICS. I wanna keep comics a secret until they are pretty much done because of the naracisstic way my brain works; if I post it now, I might think I've finished the entire comic, and that's all wrong! So I'll keep it under wraps until I'm certain the momentum will keep me going. Whtev, it's cool stuff so far; the layouts so far are pretty standard, but hopefully I can develop that as I go. Anyway. Comics! I reckon I've got a good hour left in me yet! :D :D
