Had a chance to see completed pages for “The God Trap” today, and stared Bamapana in the eye for the very first time.
What’s more disturbing; that there is an aboriginal trickster god famed for his incestuous ways, or that I write about him? 
In any case, Gary has done a fantastic job and Bamapana looks utterly filthy and profane, just as he should. Fans of EC horror, tentacles, night clubbing, betrayal, and evil tables (yes, evil tables) should all do just fine. Kitten fanciers … not so much.
Check the story out in the …

Snark and Fury has put the first episode of the new season of Robin Hood through his snark-o-meter and found it wanting!

If you believed that thought crimes were for foreign dictatorships and science fiction distopias, then beware.
“The Criminal Justice & Immigration Act 2008 came in to effect in January 2009, and Section 49 of the Coroners and Justice Bill is currently being reviewed. Both of these Acts could impact on the creation of comic books and how they are sold, both have the potential to land innocent people in court, on the sex offender register or in jail.”
Essentially, it would appear that our government want to …

I’ve just read the online preview of Cy Dethan’s Cancertown from Insomnia, and must say it looks like a very interesting read.
Cy describes the story as “Chinatown meets The Wizard of Oz, and he should know, but I get more of a feel of “Neverwhere meets Angelheart”. Whatever the mix, you can’t go wrong with those sorts of ingredients.
Bryan Talbot says “Cancertown will disorientate you, suck you in, chew you up and spit you out and you might well be in need of a change of underwear by the end.”

I have been using Celtx to write my comic book scripts for quite some time now, and find one of its most useful features to be the ability to keep character, prop, and scene information seperate from the main body of the script but with hyperlinks to move to and from the script. Celtx also allows you to attach notes and annotations to elements of your script.
As with any piece of software however, there are drawbacks, and my key gripe with Celtx is that you can’t easily redefine the templates …

Received news yesterday that Cymru Con was cancelled, at least for this year.
Official news is that 
Our main sponsor has had to withdraw their financial backing, and with the current economic climate this has simply made it impossible to be able to put on a large event such as Cymru Con as we have been unable to secure further financial backing.
I know a number of the people who have been involved in putting this convention together and we are all obviously disappointed that it will not go ahead this year. It …

The software that is free in Microsoft's Free Web Software Eco-System seems mostly to be open source; watch out for Wordpress and Drupal in their top five!

This needs no explanation or introduction, it is simply laugh out loud funny … BeaucoupKevindotcom | Just Imagine…Social Media’s Watchmen..
