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!
Thanks for reading,

Hey all,
Wow. A comic. This is kinda amazing. I’m actually working on the next one too. Good to be back into the swing of it.
Meanwhile the Chromacon event was amazing. I’m gonna post about it soon. Thanks to all the kind people who came by my booth and had a chat with me. It was a great day. Turn out was great. All the artists were cool. Just a very fun day.
Also worth mentioning, I still have some prints and comics left, so if you came by, saw something you liked, but didn’t purchase, you can always purchase now or in the future by visiting my store.
Thanks for reading. More comics on the way.

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?
Thanks for reading,

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?

Hey all,
Well finally I get to reveal the look of the new coffee truck! I hope you like it. I have designed an inside to it too, which I guess we’ll see more of very soon. Then the characters will be able to get this thing on the road!
There might be a longer break than normal between this comic and the next as I have some commitments coming up that will require my attention. I’ll promise to get back to it as soon as I can. Hopefully it won’t take more than a couple of weeks. I’ll should have some blogs to post at the very least.
How are things? Everyone cool?
Reminder: You can buy my new book here, and if you’re not a Facebook Fan yet, go do that thing, here. That way you can find out when new comics drop. Or there is always my Twitter feed, which I am very active on.

Greg is kind of a dick to Adam sometimes huh? There must be more to that story I’m thinking. One day we might even find out!
Thanks to everyone who came to Auckland Zinefest and said hello. It was too much fun. Full wrap up can be read here. If you’d like to purchase the new book that I debuted there, you can buy those here.
Thanks for reading,

New ActionMan Adam print comic – Things Change
July 27th, 2012 | by Marc
This post has been a long time coming, but I finally picked up my newest print comic from the printers on Wednesday. I’m really happy with the result of it. It came out great. A part of the reason updates have been taking a while has been because I’ve been putting extra time into compiling this new book. It’s a very time consuming process, so it goes without saying that I am happy to have it finally completed.
This new comic is titled “Things Change”. It’s most of last years content including all the earthquake stuff, hence the title of the book. It’s making it’s debut Thursday next week, at Auckland Zinefest / First Thursdays. You can find more information about that here. I’m looking forward to finally getting it into peoples hands!
After the Zinefest has finished I’ll make the book available for purchase in my online store. I’m looking at my options for a digital book, but that might be something different, as I never did a digital book for “First Impressions” either. Maybe I need to do a large digital book? Once I find a way of compiling the color pages, and what format might be best for iPads or things like that – then I’ll proceed with that. If you like physical books though, I’ll be able to add sketches with orders – which I can’t do digitally.
I’m excited to finally be able to get this new comic out in the world!

We all have our comforts that we miss we we’re not at home right? If you’re away long enough, eventually you’re going to get that package from home to supply you with the unobtainable. If I lived away from New Zealand – I’m sure I’d need regular deliveries of Peanut Slabs. I don’t eat them a lot, but it’s funny what you miss when you can’t get it at all anymore.
Oh, if you’re in Auckland on August 2nd, I’ll have a new book for sale at Auckland Zinefest / First Thursdays. More info here.

Oh damn. I’m not really doing well with consistent updates at the moment. I’ve been super busy, so I am sorry about the wait times between comics. I’m doing the best I can.
One of the reasons I’m so busy is because I’m in the middle of putting together a new ActionMan Adam print comic. All that really needs to happen with this process now is the printing. Hopefully I’ll have more time to work on new comics once this has been completed.
Also: I’m going to be attending Auckland Zinefest again. It’s happening at St Kevin’s Arcade on K Rd again, on August the 2nd. Which isn’t too far away. With any luck I’ll have the new book ready in time. I’ll have more details about the Zinefest in an upcoming blog post.
Hope you like this weeks comic.

That’s a little concerning that Adam sort of lost it that quickly.
Hey, the NBA finished up it’s season. Now what on earth am I going do with myself? I guess I’ll have to work harder on the comics. I’ve actually been very busy. When not drawing a new comic, I’ve been going through assembling a new print book. Maybe I’ll look at releasing this one digitally as well?
If anyone has any thoughts on that, let me know. Digital, Traditional print? It’s all good either way right?
Thanks for reading,
Marc
