Vague Announcement

This week I will be starting a new comic strip, a shortish series about a new character, and new episodes of Walter Wilson and Clown Shoes will be up at the ROK Comics website. And after that will be the semi-triumphant return of Griefbringer, and a new series of Mothman About The House. So keep this frequency clear!

Dare you peak into the... Toilet?!

A new issue in my series of tiny little comics is now available! It's called Toilet, and it features plumbing, monsters, negative equity and social exclusion. And monsters. As always it's FREE! So if you want a copy email me your address and I'll send you one, or come and say hello at the Thought Bubble event in Leeds in November.

Gasp... CHUDs!!!







 

For no apparent reason I'm currently obsessed with 80s horror film C.H.U.D. They're cannibalistic humanoids! And they dwell underground! It's bloody great.

Metropolis rediscovered



I'm a huge fan of the great Fritz Lang. The Dr Mabuse films, M and Metropolis are masterworks of early cinema, and his Hollywood career one of the most highly regarded and influential of any Director.

I was astonished to hear that the long lost original version of Metropolis was recently rediscovered. This much longer version, the only existing copy in the world, was found earlier this year in a Buenos Aires film archive.

You can read the story of the rediscovery here.

Sometimes you think you've heard it all :)
