Hicksville - the new edition
Lord, how time flies! My brief hiatus turned into a looong one, for which I apologise. Thing is, I was very very busy doing a few things, more of which I'll tell you about (and post the comics of course!) soon.
But first let me tell you about the new edition of Hicksville, which is coming out from Drawn & Quarterly (and, in New Zealand, from Victoria University Press) in early February 2010. Getting it ready is one of the main things I've been busy with, but now it's all good to go.

Off to New Caledonia
Terry and I are heading to New Caledonia for a week, as guests of a comics festival: BD Folies Boulouparis. The festival is this weekend (August 8-9), in the apparently beautiful seaside town of Boulouparis (a little way north of Noumea), and sounds like a lot of fun.
I'm looking forward to it, of course, although my French is very rusty - so wish us luck!

On the radio…
Asian Report, a show on New Zealand's National Radio, recently played a two-part documentary (made by Sapna Samant) about anime and manga. The first part focuses on the cult of Hello Kitty, while the second looks at the growing influence of anime and manga here in New Zealand. I get to chime in, along with various much more interesting people, and it's a great little doco. You can listen to it by clicking these links:

New story: Three Tijuana Bibles (ADULTS ONLY!)
This story is for ADULTS ONLY
I hesitated a while before uploading this, but in the end I decided you're all mature enough to handle it. It's a short trio of Tijuana Bibles, drawn in July 2000 for Fantagraphics' Dirty Stories volume 2.
Please be warned: this story contains explicit sexual images and is ADULTS ONLY and Not Safe For Work. If for any reason you should not be looking at such things, please don't do so.
