My RSS reader is bringing me the news live as it happens from September 2006. Which is why I just tried to report the death of Raymond Baxter two and a half years too late.

Bloody Bloglines.

We don’t know who they are, but they think Vernon Kay’s a shit. So they’re not all bad.

The Internet could become self aware, as soon as withing the next decade. I roughed out a story based upon a similar idea a few years ago, though the computer network was a company’s intranet rather than the whole internet.

A test shot for a series of photos and prints I’m planning. A box of Transformers lit from beneath by my light box.

There’s a very small orgy on my modelling table, originally uploaded by spinneyhead.

I’m working on some very naughty gift boxes, which have tiny lovers inside them. The completed ones in this photo are "It must be love" and "In the white room". The naked lady and the other lovers are waiting for their own boxes.

Let me go on big hands I know you’re the one 1

When I’m out walking I strut my stuff yeah I’m so strung out
I’m high as a kite I just might stop to check you out
Let me go on like I blister in the sun
Let me go on big hands I know you’re the one
Body and beats I stain my sheets I don’t even know why
My girlfriend she’s at the end she is starting to cry
Let me go on like I blister in the sun
Let me go on big hands I know you’re the one…

Bandes Dessinee en Anglais? S’il vous plait!

This entry was posted in bandes dessinees Comics Europe on April 26, 2009 by Ian Pattinson

For all the American, and Japanese, comics I’ve read over the years I can’t help thinking that anything I produce will be much more European in tone, subject and style. Cinebook publish translated European comics for the English market. It seems wrong that it takes a foreign publisher to give us so English a character as Biggles. There my be some purchases in the near future.
