News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Just published a new comix collection!



Psychonaut Comix #1 I'll be serializing the free web version starting this week. Some stuff is new, some stuff is old, some stuff is a bit of both  :fnord: :fnord: :fnord:

Looks awesome, Bobby!

When I look at your stuff I feel a bit jealous cos you have a total style that's all your own and it looks fuck all like anyone else out there and it's friggin awesome to boot. I'd kill for my own style but all I got is shooting for photorealism and missing by miles :lulz:

Care to share how you went about developing it?

I'm up to my arse in Brexit Numpties, but I want more.  Target-rich environments are the new sexy.

Octomom Auxillary Heat Exchanger Repairman

Thanks for the very kind words, P3nT4gR4m!

I think you've already got a pretty damn good individual style, (Kinda like Richard Corben meets Nick Park) and the fact that you're developing within a higher dimensional artistic medium, believe you me, just give it some time and your style will become something unfathomably unique  :fnord:

My style was developed pretty much by shooting for realism and missing by miles, but then leaning into the trajectory of my misfire.

One person's failed photo realism is another person's wonderful abstraction of reality.

Thanks very much, Nigel!

It's pretty much my fav one from the new book, and it kinda bombed on twitter, so I appreciate your discerning eye!  :fnord: :fnord: :fnord:

More excellent work. I really, really love these! I especially love how you are tying in concepts from neuroscience.

:fnord: :fnord: :fnord: Thank you very muchly! When I first showed my comix to RAW, way back when, he expressed great enthusiasm about the prospect of his neurosemantics getting translated to the comic book medium. Which I think had something of an effect on my output
