Only time for a quick one - hi, how is everyone? - but I just wanted to say this is a damn good week to buy the Beano too, as I have not one, not two, not six million and twelve, but FIVE pages in this week's issue. Oh yeeeeaah! My two-page Minnie is in there, along with a two-page Ratz and a Johnny Bean. Never again will I pwn teh b34n0 in such a ( Read more... )

Not the current issue, at any rate. For, yes, this is the week that the mystery strip I've been working on since March finally makes its entrance. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you "Johnny Bean from Happy Bunny Green", charming tales of life in a cosy rural idyll and the little hoody bastard who ruins it on a weekly basis. It's a departure in format ( Read more... )

Too late in the evening for a long post - got a comics convention coming up next weekend, so expect something juicier after that. In the meantime, I've updated my site with quite a lot of new stuff tonight, so go have a snuffle through all that. Oyasumi!

As Oscar Wilde once put it, to have one blog is unfortunate, to have two is just plain geeky. Yes, I have made the momentous decision to attempt to rend my brain asunder and post all comicky news and views in a dedicated blog, retaining all other business on this one.

Despite rumours to the contrary. It's been a while, hasn't it? I doubt anyone will be surprised to hear that I've been very busy with drawing various things, attending various seminars, and travelling to London to watch various Japanese Ska bands (well, no, just the one of those actually ( Read more... )

Yay, just made my first sale to MAD magazine! They're undecided yet as to whether I will get to draw the thing in question or not - I have to get some sketches prepared by next week, so they can see how I'd interpret it. But regardless, I still get paid for the idea itself, so w00t ( Read more... )

A busy weekend, but a good one - no, a great one, I think. Tim and I arrived at the convention hall at 9.45 on Saturday to set up the Midlands Comics Collective stall - next thing I knew it was about one in the afternoon and I was wandering back from the con hotel with a cup of tea and a Bounty in my hand, having just given up an increasingly ( Read more... )
