Ok, I wrote this for my personal blog and accidentally posted it in chugnuts...but we should get some comics on here, yeh? so i've removed the unnecessary text and have left le pictures:





This one originally appeared in Wooly Bully's free comic book day comic, edited by the deloightful Marc Pearson. It's part one of a (so far) 50+ page book I'm working on.

Chugnut this year

So I meant to put some of me drawings up from Chugnut but I spent most of the time finishing off this comic that I was doing for a magazine at Chuggers and I don't wanna stick it up just yet ... so I'm gunna stick up some of me other favourite project.

- drawing footy players!!! OHHH YEAHHH!!!!
CARN' The BLUE-BAGGERS!!!!



More of that dynamite stuff at me website. And at the bottom is another travel comic I did the other week whilst cruising around the sickeningly windy roads of Western Tasmania at Easter time ....

Chuggers 2012 - completely awesOME

Hey all - Chugnut was absolutely AWESOME THIS YEAR!!
I had a great time and it was totes worth the effort coming up from Tasmania and then missing my flight back and having to pay more ...

why is Melbourne so bloody large that it takes three hours to cross????

I will get around to putting pics up here ... and hopefully those who took mountains of photos will also chuck 'em here.

Can other chugnutters please tell newbies that this blog exists ... hopefully this can become a place where we all promote projects throughout the year rather than just what happens on "comic camp".

Yes, we know a Tintin movie is coming. Yes, it's by some guy. But we Heart Tintin, flat! The comic book character born on paper in 1929 and still alive there in 23 completed books and numberless panels, outliving his creator Georges Remi (d. 1983) and any number of dumb films. We've been reading him since before we could read, we dream about him and his little white dog. We are Melbourne comic book artists.
WOUAH!
