Alan Moore and Me.

Hey, if any of you have heard of the most popular graphic novel of all time, Watchmen, you probably know that the creator, Alan Moore, kind of looks like wolf-man or something. He has an incredible amount of hair on his face and his head- it kind of looks like he's never cut it. Anyway, I was idly wondering to myself the other day- what would I look like with his hair?

   so I found some pictures and powered up photoshop and...

Wow, now I kind of want to never shave again. hooray!

Better Blog and Better Comic.

Well, my blog is a little more beautiful today...but only by a little. This was the only preset template that was orange, so this is the one I picked- I have decided, however, to manufacture my own template: a project that will take some time and thought and shall not be done for a while. For now we can stay with this one.



Secondly (for you comic lovers) I want to make a suggestion- check out Garfield minus Garfield. It is, according to the website,

"...dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to
reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It is a
journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a
losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb."

...and it is brilliant. Perhaps you might argue that it takes no effort to produce, but the concept of completely reconstructing Garfield by the removal of the title character is worthy of praise. True, some of the comics are confusing, some are downright weird, and most of them have a empty panel or two, but there is also some of the most sadly funny comics I have ever seen in this collection, and I will take G-G over the original any day.

Comic Time: Sophisticated Humor

For today's Comic Time I'm posting several farside-like gag cartoons written by myself and my brother in our younger, tenderer years. Our comic was called 'sophisticated humor' and most of the time that was an extreme oxymoron. I think some of them could be rather amusing- I especially like the one about the camel.
