Tuesday's comic is here along with a few other things.

For any occasion

That is a biased opinion.
What with him being a scientist and all.

Polyester raided again

2005-11-19T19:28:00.000+11:00

I stole this from Robin Bougie :

POLYESTER BOOKS TO CLOSE DOWN?

On the 16th November 2005, Polyester Books of 330 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy VIC was raided and searched by several police officers with a search warrant. Several hundred videos and dvds - with an X-rating or deemed un-rated - were confiscated. While legal in Canberra and the Territories, X-rated material is considered illegal in Victoria. And while there’s potentially no problems ordering this material from international corporations like Amazon on the internet, we say - ‘Keep Your Aussie Porn Dollar in Australia’. We urge the powers that be to amend the legislation, permitting the legal buying and selling of X-rated content in Victoria and Australia-wide (not just in Canberra!)

Is Club X next? Is Polyester Books the first in a statewide crackdown on adult entertainment and the selling of x-rated material? Very soon - NO PORN IN VICTORIA! Is this what you want?

We are planning a campaign in response to this outrage that harks back to the dark ages of draconian Australian censorship.

Please support the concept of personal freedom and help us survive this trauma by donating to our legal fund and signing our petition online: http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/polyester
in-store or at upcoming events.

Support Polyester - buy a Polyester T-Shirt online at www.polyester.com.au or come down to the store. We need your help.

Everyone that shops at Polyester and/or uses it to sell their stuff knows that it NEEDS to stick around. It's not like we have a great abundance of zine sellers.
I'll be heading there next week, so if you have something for sale there and I somehow don't know about it then please let me know.

Jamie Dee Galey is visiting.

2005-11-17T22:47:00.000+11:00

His comics about it are HERE.

My comics about it are HERE. (That is my Thursday and Friday comic just in case.)

2005-11-16T18:02:00.000+11:00

Comic for Wednesday.

Mario Kart DS tomorrow !
yet all I can think about is Animal Crossing.
December 8th ! Oh man, Animal Crossing.
It is one of those things where if you were addicted to the Gamecube one you should be as excited as me, but if you weren't, well you are missing out.

Remember all the Animal Crossing comics I did that year ? Boy oh boy !

2005-11-15T18:21:00.000+11:00

Comic for Tuesday.
I know I had other things to write about but I can't think right now.

For Scott

2005-11-14T19:12:00.000+11:00

Monday.

Reader Scott Davis said he wanted to appear in a comic of mine so there he is. Sorry it's inked like shit. Also, i've only ever seen that one photo of you.

This week, more Untitled Trouble Story.
And I am getting an important international visitor this week, so expect a few comics about that as well.

P.S. I was leaving a comment on a blog this morning and the word verification thing wanted me to type "IJIZZ". Laughs were had.

WARNING

2005-11-13T17:23:00.000+11:00

Do not buy the Grape Bender Paddle Pop.
It tastes just fine but the texture of it is FUCKED UP. It is like eating a person's tongue. Or like wet grape-flavoured flesh.

Friday was the closing of the show. You can read Anthony's account of it HERE. I don't have alot to add except it was cool meeting him and Heather and finding out they're actual people.

I have ALOT of catching up to do in regards to emails. Please be patient.

2005-11-11T11:46:00.000+11:00

Comic for Friday.
I'd do High Plains Drifter if I knew how to draw cars.

2005-11-09T17:57:00.000+11:00

Comic for Wednesday and Thursday.

2005-11-08T19:12:00.000+11:00

Second part of that comic.

I have a new idea for a printed book.
I give myself the deadline of...late Jan/early Feb.

Also I should mention Anthony Woodward and Pete Warden's
exhibition is having it's closing this Friday night at the HUB. Copied and pasted : There'll be food and drinks and you can take some artwork with you when you leave. I've seen the show and it's pretty awesome so make it down.
Flyer Here.

My computer can go bite my nuts.

2005-11-08T12:04:00.000+11:00

COMIC HERE

I had a rad weekend in Melbourne.
It involved Nintendogs day at ACMI and seeing Made Austria rock out an abandoned milkbar.
More details later with photos.

I did buy a few things :
True Porn #2
Autobiographical sex comic anthology. I never saw the first one. There's some great stuff in here, some of which made me feel like a prude.

Nana shower by Mandy Ord
I'd been looking for this for a while and Sticky got a new batch of all her stuff. Not as funny as the other books, but it's not meant to be.

One Hundred Dollars and a T-shirt DVD
All about the Portland zine scene. Interesting and a little inspirational, maybe would have been more so to someone who hasn't made books before. It did make me realise how lucky I am in regards to photocopier access. Oh and it is full of girls in glasses.

Go Robot Go !

2005-11-04T15:58:00.000+11:00

COMIC HERE

Just playing around.
Next week i'll be starting a story I have been sitting on for too long, so i'll be switching in between that and the Gravedigger thing.

DISCO full of problems

2005-11-03T21:34:00.000+11:00

This was meant to have text but I did not have any disco-y fonts and also I forgot to resize it so when I uploaded it photobucket made it tiny.

I'd say I'm sorry but I really don't care.

Rock over London

2005-11-02T22:15:00.000+11:00

Rock on Chicago
The Guide to Gravedigging Halloween Special Page 6
For all your zombie comic needs.

The reason I keep putting them on the livejournal is because they are too wide for this here page.
I am thinking eventually all my comics may be there and this will be for non-comic stuff.
We shall see.

Pfft

2005-11-02T00:05:00.000+11:00

Sorry, but I'm a bit busy and tired and my computer is making me angry.

I am back on the nets

2005-11-01T02:30:00.000+11:00

I would just like to show you three things with me in them that have appeared in the last week :

Jessica drew this to tempt me to Perth. Have a look back through her comics too, they are ultra-super-cute.

SonicTailC is spreading the word of Milkshake Parties.

I didn't think Tom McHenry's Proust comics could get better but then he put ME in it !
I really did that too, but only because I was asked to.

Hopefully I will be putting a comic here tomorrow.

Getting ahead of myself.

2005-10-26T00:40:00.000+10:00

I just put 5 pages of comics up. I call it The Guide to Gravedigging Halloween special which will not actually be finished before Halloween if ever.

By my count this should cover Wednesday through to next Tuesday (I am not counting the one panel page) I may still put two more pages up this week so I am even more ahead.

P.S. I am going to try and attempt to be away from my computer until I have cleaned and packed my crap so forgive me for not replying to things.

Another birthday !

2005-10-25T12:14:00.000+10:00

My comic for Tuesday :
Happy Birthday Sara !
Thank you Sara for saying amazing things and for just being awesome.
(It was impossible to top the comic I sent you guys the othere week.)

No pink 9-ball :(

2005-10-24T12:15:00.000+10:00

Click for my comic for Monday -

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NESSA !!
I hope you're doing okay.
Thanks for everything ever !

P.S. I keep forgetting to tell you that I actually saw a baby wearing one of those care bear costumes !

To everyone else :
Tomorrow will be another one off and then I am going to spread my cheeks and dump at least a weeks worth of stuff at once so I can get my shit organizized.

I'm pretty much freaking out

2005-10-23T22:58:00.000+10:00

So I guess I'm going to have to move in with my folks until I find a place. I got no problem with my parents but they live in Lara and that is crazy ! I'll be so bored that i'll either do more comics than ever before or i'll completely lose my mind.

It's pretty crazy that my other option is Perth. Pretty much every Australian cartoonist seems to be there. Can someone move to a place they've never been to ?
I know the idea is crazy but that's exactly what excites me about it. And I can always come back.

so...

2005-10-21T12:03:00.000+10:00

Don't worry and don't panic - I'm still doing daily comics, I'm still in the Daily Grind but I won't be doing journal comics for a while.

I tried to start a comic giving my reasons but it was going for too long so it'll have to wait.

Sorry to anyone who'll miss them. I'm sure they'll be back one day.
