[John Retallick]

More Tuesday Tidbits and a bit of info on this weeks show.

Animator and cartoonist Miranda Burton is our guest on Thursday. Listen to the show at 3CR -5pm on 855am in Melbourne, streaming online at 3CR.ORG.AU, or subscribe to the DIYArts podcast on your podcatcher.

Mirranda will be talking to Jo Waite, Bernard Caleo and myself about her recent award win and trip to Switzerland. We'll also be reviewing the 'Blood and Thunder' anthology and a range of other comics. Hope you can join us.

Five Wounds landed in TheComicSpot's pigeon hole at 3CR recently. It's an illustrated novel from publishers Allen and Unwin. I'll talk about it on the next program and a copy of Five Wounds will be given away as part of our Radiothon show on the 17th June. Might even talk to the creators. Cheers to A+U for the copy.

Five Wounds cover - an intriguing read.

Dean Rankine has popped onto my radar again recently when he popped onto Facebook. It's good to hear from him again. I've always enjoyed his comics and his take on Christianity. Pop along to his webcomicsnation page and enjoy the plethora of goods on offer.

WWJD with a refugee family?

Nicki Greenberg was unable to attend the Wheeler Centre weekend focus on the graphic novel but she did however point people to a video prepared for them - here.

Head to her www to find out all about her!

And following posting the talk between myself and Gerard Ashworth recorded by David Blumenstein at last years Comic Book Funny event i've found links to many of his hard to find works here. Have a read and then listen to the conversation here.

Is your mind ready for more Ashworth?
