Sex, Guns and Storytelling
Sex and violence, like romance and suspense, are just ingredients. Not every meal requires every ingredient you enjoy, and some are actually damaged quite severely by the introduction of ingredients that have no place there. Mrs. Cropley’s famous peanut butter & anchovis sandwiches are an example. On the other hand, sometimes strange combinations work amazingly well […]

Today’s the day, vainglorious bastards.
Hundreds of copies of Heathen City Vol. 2 “Paved With Bad Intentions” are on their way to Pittsburgh for release at Anthrocon via treacherous and circuitous routes. The brave boys of FurPlanet charge through the wilderness of the Mexican/Canadian Neutral Zone toward the Pit of Burghs or whatever.

Hear Alex, Krahnos, Vahn and Blue_Panther on Knotcast this week
Folks,
Krahnos, Vahn, Blue_Panther and I got together with Fuzzwolf from Knotcast over Skype to record an open-heart roundtable about the production of Heathen City #2. Artistic insights, puerile joking, and some serious philosophizing ensued for an hour and a half. Check it out here:

Nominated for Ursa Major Awards! Fuck yeah!
Ladies and gentlemen,
I’m surprisingly proud to announce that Heathen City has been nominated for the Ursa Major Awards, in the category Best Comic Book. While the Ursa Majors aren’t in the same league as the Huga or Nebula in sci-fi or the Eisners and Angoulêmes for comics — it’s still pretty fucking cool.
Not […]
Can’t stop the signal
So, you know how international distribution is this complex process of haggling and negotiation?

Fan Art!
Time to boast, time to gloat!
Heathen City has proven to be quite popular, despite, you know, not actually being available yet.
The sublime ArtDecade has decided to show his enthusiasm for the project by setting his ink brush on fire and producing this:
I dig his stuff immensely. He has two comics available at FurPlanet, two […]
