Because sometimes...

...only an illiterate feline can describe how you feel to the world.

Baywatch Nights Season 2

kingmob2000-REMOVESPAM@googlemail.com (Lee) — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 09:40:00 +0000

After watching the opening credits to the aforementioned series, I asked myself a very important question: Why the hell have I never seen this?!

Baywatch/Lost Mash-up

Because it hasn't been seen around the internets enough this week.

Probably only funny to people of a certain age...

Are you a terrorist?

kingmob2000-REMOVESPAM@googlemail.com (Lee) — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 11:04:00 +0000

This is, apparently, a real radio advert from Talk Sport...

By that rationale, I'm actually a terrorist, because I don't socialise with the neighbours, and I tend to pay for things in cash (although I do have a bank card, but, you know, paying for a packet of Polos with a bank card would be taking the piss, I think).

I can only assume that the MI5 bods that came up with this piece of "profiling" did so at 4:45 on a Friday afternoon.

Way to build a climate of fear, MI5. I mean, really.

Werewolf In A Woman's Prison

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Also, NSFW.

I hope this isn't Photoshopped...

"Hey, kids! Free comics!"

kingmob2000-REMOVESPAM@googlemail.com (Lee) — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:46:00 +0000

I've updated the Portfolio page to include links to my previously published strips (the ones I'm allowed to post on-line, anyway). Read and, hopefully, enjoy. And if you don't like them, hey, they were free, so stop complaining.

I'll update that page with more links or possibly ebooks as we go on.

You can blame Bryan Coyle for this one...

Save 6Music!

The Chance Collective enjoyed Jeremy Paxman taking apart the BBC Director General over the BBC 6 Music fiasco so much that they had to give it the Malcolm Tucker treatment...

Y'know, for those times when you're looking at ladieez on the interwebs...

The Carrie Nations!

I make no bones about my love of Russ Meyer's insane Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, so I thought I'd share this with the world...

I think it's worth watching the whole film again to see the incredible looking cast of extras that Meyer assembled for it. Personally, I'd Meyer up there with Sergio Leone as knowing how to use the facial features of his cast as part of the visual landscape. Only with boobs.

Babbling on...

kingmob2000-REMOVESPAM@googlemail.com (Lee) — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 12:05:00 +0000

As Babble inches ever closer to the end, and we get ourselves geared up for the previews, I can't shake this weird feeling of dread.

This is a big thing for me; it's the culmination of a lot of work and the chance to get a story out there that I've had kicking around my head for an obscenely long time. Because it's been a part of my life for so long, I'm determined to get it right, but there's a part of me that feels as if I'm compromising, that I'm not doing the characters and the story justice, but there's also a part of me that has to wonder if people will like it...

This is not going to turn into a huge "love me, love me" post. I've had positive reactions about my work before, I know that I'm getting better as a writer with each piece I do; I'm learning from my mistakes, as any writer worth their salt should. I have enough ego to get my work out there in the first place, but not enough to believe that I'm The Greatest Writer In The World and you should all bow down before me (although, that will happen one day...).

Babble is my first full length work, and it's harder to let something like this go off to face the public, than a five page SF short. Babble is me staking my claim, if you will, a declaration that says I'm here and I'm ready to take on the world.

Babble is a first step on a new path for me.

Or at least, I hope it is.

Can't believe I didn't post this earlier...

Even though I'm a hard-bitten cynical, hate-filled bastard, I did feel quite touched by this...

"There are two types of people in this world..."

Honestly, I really have no idea what to make of this...

However, I am intrigued... Please, tell me more Les - in fact, give me some of your Les-sons...

Hold on! I'm writing this down... OK, so... Hawkpanther? Where did that come from?

Aw, man, I hope my mid-life crisis is as epic as this when it comes... But, wait! The Hawkpanther system in a success! Just look here. Think I'm ready for the quiz now, Les...

Aw, nuts... Guess I'm just not ready to be a Hawkpanther yet. :(

[And, yes, I know all of that nonsense is viral marketing for Dante's Inferno, but a part of me wishes it were all real...]

New Stories...

kingmob2000-REMOVESPAM@googlemail.com (Lee) — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:41:00 +0000

So... The new look for this here blog, then. Like it? I do, and that's all that matters, really.

I've customised the template, and taken advantage of Blogger's new static page feature, to add my "official" biography (or the one that I'm currently using, anyway), and a new portfolio that lists every comic strip I've had published, as well as some that are coming up. I may actually go back and list some of the prose stuff I've had published, too, but we'll see.

Not much more I can add, really. Hope you enjoy the new look blog. And if you don't, tough.

Crouching Gordon, Brown Dragon

The video of the Taiwanese take on Gordon Brown's bullying did the rounds on the internet...

But you may not be aware of the parody...

It's been said before, but it bears repeating: Armando Iannucci is made entirely of win.
