I think that after a certain point in a relationship, it becomes not so much about figuring out who the other person is, wondering what mad little foible they’ll expose next, and more about heaving an inner sigh and saying to yourself, this is the person I happen to love. Now how can I learn [...]

I hope you enjoy them! It was a lot of fun to make. EDIT: Sarah’s hourly comics are up. She is being modest about them but they are hilarious. Also we just ate the giant fish in a curry. He fed seven people comfortably and he was delicious.

A long long time ago (well, in like October or something) Bex had a birthday party, and it was on a lovely spring day up at the Roseneath School Hall overlooking the harbour. Sarah, her friend Victoria and I all wore quite silly outfits (tulle, polka dots, cowboy boots and fishnets all featured), and we [...]
I Got All The Time In The World

No I don’t. But I have this new theory, right. When I’m unmotivated and lazy, I tend to let everything go. This is why I’ve not been posting comics for about two months. I’ve also in that same timeframe not been writing any thesis, applying for any grants or doing anything much other than things [...]
Close encounters of the metafictional kind

Remember my friend Fyodor? He’s back. The reason you can see my pencil drafts on my more recent comics is that as befits a scholar of postmodern theory, I am deliberately exposing the craftedness of my art- I am drawing attention to its artificiality and exposing the gap between “reality” and fiction’s pretence that it [...]

The above is a brief but accurate summation of the state of things as 2008 ended. Yes that is right I am back after an unforseeable absence caused by laying around in the sun for three weeks negelecting everything except my alcohol intake, and the recent death of my computer. My computer that has on [...]
This One Doesn’t Even Warrant A Proper Title

I leave on Friday. For various reasons, the most prominent being the new government (Murray McCully for Foreign Affairs Minister, anyone?), Marks and Spencers, proper autumns, London bridges, a twee club night where the entire crowd sang along to Lazy Line Painter Jane, pear cider, pub meals, Camden, and an intellectual dismantling and reconstruction which [...]
Shannon Made a Ting

…As we call them round here, having watched too much of the IT Crowd and Black Books. And it was funny and also I am suddenly not going to have the relaxing weekend I had envisaged, so you get Shannon’s cartoon instead of mine. Which is a bonus really! Also I like how it shows [...]

It’s hard being a postgraduate student. You spend ninety percent of your time in a tiny office which smells of feet. If you are lucky, and I am, the person(s) your share that space with will not be a socially maladjusted Freudian specialist, but the vast majority are not lucky, and may have to spend [...]
Not What I Thought I’d be Writing

I was really hoping that this post would be about a new friend of mine, Fyodor. Fyodor just popped up, fully realised, as a result of a conversation with Chap about what kind of dogs were awesome and what kinds were dumb (anything small enough to be suffocated in a backpack). I’ve got a good [...]
