By popular demand (ok, one or two people asked me about it), I've decided to relent and sell prints of my stuff.  I haven't actually sorted out a price yet as I'm really looking to see if there's enough interest before I spend valuable minutes getting quotes and the like- but I'm looking to take some to Bristol with me this year, if anyone's interested.

Seriously- where is it?  We used to have one and now it's gone.

THIS IS SERIOUS INTERNET BUSINESS.

Could we have it back, please?  And if not, why not?

I've been getting a really irritating pop-up at random times for the last couple of days:



Can anybody shed any light on it and, more importantly, how I can get rid of it, please?  I'm running a G5 Mac with OS X (10.4.11) and Safari version 4 Beta.  I'm almost on the verge of going out and killing women.

I fully admit to my being a bit of a numpty in this area and accept that some amount of pointing and laughing is inevitable.

[That's £87 BILLION]

UK taxpayers to shell out another £50 Billion to bail out the banks.  That's on top of the £37 Billion we've already given them.  That's £87 BILLION.

Unless my maths are wonky (and they might be), for a mere £60 Billion, the government could've chosen to make every man, woman and child in the UK a millionaire instead.

Just sayin'...

I kid you not!

The review comments are priceless!
 

In an ideal world, I'd have my own Street Team pimping this for me, but I haven't- so here's a preview:

It's out on the 17th of December from all good comic shops.  And crap ones too, I suppose.
 

Dredd- Best I've read in ages- Al is a brilliant writer.  More Dredds for Ewing, please.

FS- Saw the ending coming a mile off, but still a good tale- particularly liked the artwork.  Are the days of inkers numbered?

Stalag 666- Surprise twist- called it weeks ago.  Hooray for me!

Lob- Excellent.  Not the ending I was expecting- in a good way.  Well done that boy.

All round great prog for me.  I get mine early every Saturday- it's not very often I feel moved to start the review thread though.

Having previously admitted to being a bit of a luddite, I must now embarrass myself further by asking for more help.

Long story short- I've downloaded Skype, but as soon as I connect to it, Little Snitch tells me that I am trying to connect to something.  Assuming that this is integral to the connection process, I hit 'allow until quit'.  Then I get another.  And another.  And another.  This goes on for a not inconsiderable amount of time, until I eventually give up and turn it off.

Somebody help an old geezer out, please?
 

Just pimping the cover to the first issue.  I'm probably posting in the wrong place- but I don't really understand this board anymore!
 

Nom nom nom!

I am enjoying the arrival of my Saturday progs!

Made me laugh...

Spend a minute of your life watching this and then vote, if you feel so inclined.  

He's a nice lad and he's done really well without any vote rigging so far.

Client's request for character design:  "Think: the girl who liked Seth in "Superbad" as someone to channel"

Somebody throw me a bone- I don't feel like coming across as an out of touch old fogey to my client today.

:)

Cheers.

New Knight Rider TV film coming out- with the son of Michael Knight.  I don't get it- why not just reboot?

This doesn't look like actual gameplay, but I've got reasonably high hopes for this...

Image have a new 420 page anthology out that has a whopping 8, yes, 8 whole pages of my own work in it.  I think you should all go and buy it immediately.

That is all.

I try to tolerate other people's religious leanings as much as possible- but this is just stupid.  What a waste.

Is it any good?  I've been thinking about offloading a bunch of my scribblings on things like T-shirts and hats- stuff like that.  Is it worth the bother?  Is anyone else doing it?  Anyone made any money at it (or anything similar)?

Cheers-

Matt

Does anybody remember some '80s show that had Bonnie Tyler's 'Holding Out For A Hero' as it's title track?  The main bloke in it it was some kind of MacGuyver type- who might also have been an Aussie.

What the fuck was it?!?

It's what he's charged with that cracks me up...
