Four comics this week, things are getting crazy, but we’ll manage. Some really good things here, people, really good things. And first up is Resurrection 7. How are you, old chap? Resurrection: This week brings new issues, a cult to be specific. I thought they saw themselves as more of a religion? Resurrection: When you’re [...]

My writing regimen is a little scattered what with my return to work. I got a solid two hours yesterday morning, and yielded a very nice 1k of words out of it. Quota had been met for the day and I was happy. There was no need to stress or overthink the process or the [...]

I am a writer. By now you know that, but by day I am a mild mannered primary school teacher. It’s fun and it pays the bills. Score. For the past five weeks I have been on summer holidays. It’s awesome, I’ve got like 12 hours a day with which to write and all that [...]

This week brings 3 more titles back into my life, which seems to be a bit of a good number each week. I wonder how I’d go round-tabling with nine comics in one week. I’d have to keep it short, but this week won’t be short because I’ve got three very interesting, very talkative titles [...]

It’s been a long time now. I wrote a four issue comic mini series titled Fate. It detailed the tale of Ben Schultz who wakes in a hospital with no idea who he is. He sees the stupid red costume that is tattered on his body and worries. Ben is Fate, the nastiest villain that [...]

As a new year is now well into existence I realise that I really should start to plan into the future a little better. You never know when your car is going to cost $800 to get a bunch of crap done to it. Though I know when that will happen, it happened last week. [...]

It’s a simple trio-stack of comics this past week and they’re all itching to ask a few things, so let’s not pussy-foot around, let ‘em have their mike. Here’s Conan: The Weight of the Crown. Conan: Ryan, what is best in life? I want to say a Darick Robertson one-shot about you, sir. Conan: That [...]

And we, the erudite comic reading hordes, could not be happier. Casanova, as many know, is one of my absolute most favourite comics of all time. It’s funky, it’s funny, it’s different, and it’s bloody smart. I love that every panel is a lovely piece of art by one of the twins, Gabriel Ba and [...]

Today was a day like most. I woke, early-ish, I loaded up the computer, opened my Word files for the day, checked email, nerded out on Twitter, surfed the ‘net in general. I got a few hundred words out. It was okay but I just haven’t been feeling the vibe much this year, all thirteen [...]

Comic buyers always debate which to buy; floppies or trades. There are pros and cons for both, which I’ll attempt to enumerate quickly right now. Floppies – the monthly comics -due to the publishing schedule this means you get to go to the comic store every week to pick up at least one title -you [...]
