Smoke + Water = Ink = Comix

Okay, okay,

I've been fairly slack with writing about comics because I've been pretty busy drawing them!
I hope none of you will fault me.

Met up with Toby Morris (some sample art below) at Hurley's Cantina a little over a week ago.… Continue

Yessss

I have added linky links to the right hand sidebar and it feels good...
Those dern Google ads are the price we pay for having all these bells and whistles. If I pay $20 a month I can remove them... 'Hasbro action figures' or 'Transformers' merch are not exactly what this site is about...

The main 'front page' blog has been shifted over to http://blog.comicslifestyle.com. (Thanks to my Lao - based webwonk pal for sorting this!)

Thanks for the welcome, John. It's nice to be here.

I'll take a little while to settle in, get the lay of the land, before I'll open my big gob and say stuff. I'm taking a nosey around the different sections of the community at the moment, getting to know the place, and enjoying myself in the process.

I really like the non-mainstream/commercial comics feel of the place. So different from all the Marvel/DC fan sites out there.

Refreshing.

The Example - Tom Taylor, Colin Wilson

When Melbourne playwright Tom Taylor decided he wanted to turn his 2005 short play The Example into a graphic novel, he got short shrift from illustrators he sought to contact on an internet forum. They were wary of getting involved with a speculative project. Taylor finally got a sympathetic response from artist Colin Wilson. It was stroke of luck. Wilson, an illustrator with more than 30 years of experience, has worked on cult offerings such as anti-hero Judge Dredd from British comic 2000 AD, Star Wars comics and French detective fiction. Finding an artist with a style to match the content is not easy, says Taylor, 34, a long-time devotee of speech bubbles and the picture grid. "With comics you're trying to create a full story and you can't do a really deep, philosophical, hard-hitting piece with a guy who draws a predominantly cartoony style; it doesn't work if it's Daffy Duck."
