Wow. First comic of the year, and we’re already half way through the year. Thanks to anyone who checked out the site even though not a hell of a lot has been going on. In my last comic post I said I wasn’t sure when I’d get the next one up. I was right. The day job has been keeping me busy.
This page was actually done traditionally. Just for a challenge. It ended up being a huge pain in the ass to complete. I don’t think I will be doing that again.
However, happy to finally get one in the can for 2014. Hopefully there are more to come. I’m not sure when, but I’ll do my best.
Cheers
Marc

Hello all.
Last weekend was Auckland Zinefest. It was a lot of fun. I caught up with a lot of people. It was good times all around. If you stopped by and said “hello” – thank you very much. If you purchased a comic from me, then I hope you enjoyed it.
As always, doing an event like that is tiring, but well worth it. If you have ever thought about self publishing and would like a nice market atmosphere to sell in, I can’t recommend Zinefest enough.
This comic has been a long time coming. Glad it is finally done. On to the next one.
Hope all is well.

Hello everyone.
A new comic. Hooray. I’m finally getting to show some of the “new” Christchurch in the comic now. Hopefully as time goes on I get to draw more of this stuff. I like the Re-Start mall. It’s a solid beginning to the transition down there.
That’s my favourite Public Enemy song right there by the way. Great song.
Hope all is well in your world!

I’ve been terrible at this whole – posting a comic online business. Lately it seems it’s been hard to get page after page finished. Life just keeps getting in the way. I’ll try to get them up faster.
In the meantime. Stuff has been happening. I should do a blog post since I have a couple of gigs worth talking about. Concerts are always good fun.
Anything happening in your world?

This comic has been a long time coming. It sucks that it took so long. Life, amiright?
Anyway, how is everyone? Who grew a beard while I was not posting comics? C’mon, someone did right?

Today is the one year anniversary of the February 22 earthquake.
What a horrible day that was.
Much love to my home away from home, Christchurch.
Okay, this page took me longer than I thought it would! It’s probably been a while, so maybe read the last page to get a refresher if you need to catch up to this point.
Happy Valentines Day for those of you still in the 14th. I’m looking at you Europe, Africa, North and South America (sure, that’s almost everyone – I live in the future, I can’t help it!). Hope you have a nice one.
I enjoyed drawing this page. I hope you enjoy reading it.
Thanks!

Tomorrow this comic, in this current format of color updates on the site, is 2 years old. Hooray! It’s kind of weird how fast that went by. I guess that is a good thing though? Must mean I’m keeping busy.
Thanks to everyone who has come along for the journey. It means a lot to me, and I hope you’re enjoying.
Cheers,
Marc
Whoa this comic took a long time to draw. Sometimes I feel as though I have to cut corners to get a comic up on time. This was the opposite case. I wanted to spend time working on it to make it look nice. I hope you look at it for at least 3 seconds longer than normal out of respect. Ha ha!
That line Adam uses in the last panel is from an old Mel Brooks film. I’m pretty sure it’s from “History of the World: Part 1”. I love Mel Brooks movies. For some reason that particular line always stuck with me. Great flick.
Almost the weekend! Go enjoy it!

Hello everyone!
Happy 2012! Thanks for being patient with the lack of comics. I had a break over the holidays, and it was awesome. Auckland’s weather wasn’t super accommodating, so I pretty much just stayed in. I watched a lot of NBA Basketball. Good to have some downtime.
Back into it now though.
Going down to Christchurch this weekend. I’m very much looking forward to it. It’ll be the first time I have been down since the deadly February 22 quake last year. I’m prepping myself for something completely foreign even though it was a city I knew very well. Hopefully it’ll give me a fresh perspective and I can incorporate that into the comic.
