He’s a charmer, that one.

6. All The Time
INDEED!
5. Fire-Control
That’s quite an important “however.”
4. Wrath?
No wrath today, apparently. But as a consolation, here’s myself, Paul Gravett and Karrie Fransman talking about experimental comics at Orbital in London.
3. Stay Prepared
Annnnny minute now. Nice big piece of doom. Honest.
2. Prepare To Feel
Doom with a capital D? That’s some serious doom.
Beta City Beware! E-merl 7.1 Rises!
Welcome to the newly nipped and tucked E-merl 7.1! The star of the site’s new look is of course MASIVO, my new twice-weekly webcomic serial. Ever since I was a kid I’ve had a soft spot for giant robots punching each other and at last in MASIVO I’ve found a suitable outlet for this guilty sci-fi pleasure. Stay tuned to E-merl every Monday and Friday to watch the inevitable carnage unfold.
In addition to the site’s lovely new colour scheme, I’ve re-organised the top navigation bar to reflect the renewed focus on hypercomics that’s come along thanks to my current doctoral studies. Expect more new work from me in this area before the year is out. Not to be outdone, my major webcomic serials have also finally been given their own page and a fancy drop down menu to make finding them all a little bit easier.
Meanwhile, over in the right hand bar, you can now see my latest tweet and if you scroll down a bit I’ve added a subscription button for those wishing to receive an e-mail whenever the site updates. Elsewhere I’ve also updated the Consulting page to reflect a couple of my recent gigs, chief amongst which would be the creation of the Strangebook prototype, which you can learn more about here.
And that’s pretty much everything for this update. I think I’ve caught and squished all the bugs thrown up by the site’s facelift, but if anyone spots anything that looks like an error then a comment on the bottom of this post would be much appreciated. Right, back to the giant robot craziness. Toodles!
1. Something Rises

See You In Chicago
Hey everybody in Chicago! I am going to Chicago! In about… 12 hours from now, in fact. This coming weekend I’ll be attending C2E2 (The Chicago Comics & Entertainment Expo) as a guest of First Comics alongside my Necessary Monsters compatriot, Sean Azzopardi.
Stop by the First Comics booth to say hello. If you want to be absolutely guaranteed of finding me at the booth, try 2pm-3pm Friday, 11am-12pm Saturday or 2pm-3pm Sunday, as that’s when Sean and I will be doing our signings.
And if you are a human person who I know who also knows me and you’re going to be in Chicago during the next week, drop me a mail or a tweet so we can arrange drinking and such. Right! Off to get some sleep before my flight. Chicago! Yeah!
