Ramblings: February 19th, 2008Le Dernier Cow-Boy Raisonnable & Autres Histoires will be out from L’AN 2 on the 15th May. Take a look at the cover on the left and you’ll notice it looks a lot like the American version, only more French. Just the cover image alone may not do the new edition justice though - my […]
Ramblings: January 14th, 2008Cruising my referral logs today I discovered to my joy that Paul “Chiken” Fryer has his website back up and, even cooler, has now finished his long awaited Friends In Spring comic. Go check it out, it’s aces!
In completely unrelated news (and just because I let the cat out of the bag on a thread […]
Ramblings: December 27th, 2007It occurs to me that I wrote Luke Cage into a comic that came out the week of Christmas and yet at no point in the story does he say the above. I fail! Still, hopefully the rest of the story will prove my redemption, which you can all judge for yourselves as Giant Size […]
Ramblings: December 4th, 2007Did my lettering pass over Emperor None today and, y’know, I’m pretty pleased with it. Everything feels like it’s clicking with the words in place - I thought I might want to tweak quite a lot once I actually saw it on the page, but in the end it all seemed to fit just fine. […]
Ramblings: November 23rd, 2007The second round of Avengers hype is up at Newsarama and this time it’s myself and my fellow writers who get to strut our stuff. Douglas, T and Matt handle their questions with deft wit and aplomb while I… talk far too much. About everything.
Ooh, and check out some of the disgruntled Marvel-zombie responses that […]
Ramblings: November 8th, 2007Hey, so I’ve decided to try running some adverts at E-merl via Project Wonderful. This only works if there’s actually someone interested in advertising here, so who knows if anything will come of it or not. But watch that space to the right for the possible unfolding of exciting new adventures in commerce.
Elsewhere, the Giant […]
Ramblings: October 25th, 2007I got invited to the Lingua Comica closing reception at the Japanese Embassy in London last night. First time I’ve been to an official embassy function and I guess technically I can now say I’ve set foot on Japanese soil. Well, carpeting. Good fun was had by all, not least because every time I downed […]
Ramblings: October 21st, 2007I almost, almost, almost got my 24 hour comic finished on time but then didn’t. All the actual art, words and layout were finished by 12:39pm, which was cool, but then I had to drive my housemate to the train station and I still needed to add the registry panels that make the Tarquin Engine […]
Ramblings: October 17th, 2007This Sunday I’ll be giving a talk on webcomics as part of ComICA 07 at the ICA in London. Here’s the blurb from the ICA website:
Comica Collaboratories (4pm - 5pm)
Webcomics wizard Daniel Merlin Goodbrey (Last Sane Cowboy & Other Stories) guides you through experiments in online comics, including cutting-edge blog collaborations by Lingua Comica’s participants.
You […]
Ramblings: October 9th, 2007This weekend it’s time for the now hopefully annual Birmingham International Comics Show. I’ll be there once again, sharing a table with Douglas and Dave. I’ll also be on a panel on Sunday morning called “Small Press - Big Future” which will be about… oh, I dunno, small press comic stuff I guess. You should […]
