Welcome to my LiveJournal! A vast number of my photo links are currently dead after Flickr deleted my account. It will take me several weeks to fix this problem. Please bear with me during this time.

[Link] | Phil " destro_simpson" Redmon's comics are often unrelated, but he has a few characters that show up for occasional coherent--if you can understand the way they talks, which is how my brain walks--storylines.
The current strip has two of our protagonists fighting each other with some of the Most Bestest Fight Threats ever. Seriously, Lovely Wife Sara came in from the other room to see what was going on with my laughing.
When you're done reading this, go friend him.

[Link] | Hoping to have all of my Flickr images renamed and retagged by the end of the weekend and will start relinking images here in my LJ starting with So You Don't Have to and Art Images. I will obviously let you know when it's all done.

[Link] | Circumstances beyond my control have delayed my latest Fuckbrain Comix.
Terrible writer's block has been killing all of my fiction ideas.
God I sound whiny.
I'll be working on another piece for jensartnight at lunch, though.
In the mean time, please enjoy the following:
MY PROCESSED NARCOTIC TREE, LET ME SHOW YOU IT.

MY ALL-WINNER, SUBMARINER, IS A JUNKIE!

The Black Avenger fights Nazis WHILE RUNNING ERRANDS!!!

Okay, yeah, that'll do for now.

[Link] | Look, seriously, my expectations will be set at 0 on a scale of 1 to 10.
Also, I may bring rum.
But no matter what I'm going to see it.
EDIT: This Picollo is not Marsters's Picollo. I just saw that it says 2003. :(

( MOAR DBZ...Enormous color poster this time... )

[Link] | Yeah, we all know that the potential for it to be SHIT is MASSIVE...but I'm stunningly un-disgusted by the first preview poster of the DBZ live-action movie due out next year.
Set expectations to zero and enjoy the ride, I say.

[Link] | I joined a fucktacular community called jensartnight.
You should go groove on the funky, fucked-up, holy shit art that happens there. There are a lot of great artists to friend from there.
Fair warning, nearly all of it is NSFW.
That doesn't stop me from putting it on my friends list, though, since...well, I don't do LJ from any place where I'll get in trouble for viewing things that are NSFW.
I encourage you to do the same: join the community and don't do LJ where you'll get in trouble.
You know why?
Cause sometimes people will be working through the backlog of weekly-subjects for jensartnight and put up a drawing of something on the topic of hermaphrodites:

Smooches,

Yeah, please give this one a quick read...it'll only take you a second...
COMIC BOOK READERS! And everybody else who knows where a comic shop is!
A suave fellow by the name of Vito Delsante has his first Big Three (Marvel, DC, and Image) comic book coming out TODAY.
It's Superman #676, it's a standalone issue, and you should really buy a copy.
This is the kind of thing that can really kick-start a comic book creator's career.
His LJ is incogvito, he writes for the online fabulous that is Chemistry Set Comics, he's on Facebook as Vito Delsante,
The moral of the story is as follows: GO BUY A COPY OF SUPERMAN #676.
Every issue of this comic that gets sold is another shot in the arm for Vito's chances to get another go at working for DC.
As somebody who's been doing their damnedest to bust into the comic field, I understand the importance of this event for Vito.
If you can spare three bucks, if you read comics anyway, even if you just wanna do a good thing for a good guy, pick this up.
HERE'S HOW TO FIND WHERE YOUR NEAREST COMIC SHOP IS.
Again, it's a standalone issue, it's got a fantastic Superman vs Solomon Grundy cover by Alex Ross, and you're really gonna be helping out a man who deserves it.
TELL A FRIEND ABOUT IT, TOO.
Me?
I'm gonna buy two.
Thanks kids.
Love,

[Link] | At various times during my life I've wanted a scar on my face. Those of you who know me will find little or no surprise in that fact.
If I'm ever forced to get one...I now know how.
I want to get it BY KILLING A PELICAN WITH MY HEAD.
Debbie Shoemaker, YOU ARE ONE OF MY HEROES.

[Link] | In preparation for another installment that will be up in the next day or two, I went back and un-fucked all the broken-by-flickr image links for my previous FUCKBRAIN COMIX!
In the mean time, please enjoy a tobacco ad from Collier's Magazine, May 24, 1941:


See you tomorrow, Chubbins!

[Link] | karmabreeze is having a SALE on her award-winning photography!
It's bee-yoo-tee-ful stuff.

She's had a number of shots up on the Kodak display screen in Times Square and you should buy something from her.
IT'S MAD-RAD AND IT'S RIGHT HERE.

[Link] | Is It Time To Invade Burma? asks Time.com.
My favorite part of the article?
"Some observers, including former USAID director Andrew Natsios, have called on the U.S. to unilaterally begin air drops to the Burmese people regardless of what the junta says. The Bush Administration has so far rejected the idea — "I can't imagine us going in without the permission of the Myanmar government," Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Thursday — but it's not without precedent: as Natsios pointed out to the Wall Street Journal, the U.S. has facilitated the delivery of humanitarian aid without the host government's consent in places like Bosnia and Sudan."

[Link] | The doodlightful eschewv sent me a "letter" with arts on it and in it.
Here it is.
Oh, wait; you should know that that address will not necessarily get stuff to me. I'm not actually near my work mailbox and never get anything anyway.
It's best to send things to my home:
712 S. Anderson Urbana, IL 61801
Just don't drop by unannounced. ;D FRONT:

I want sangria. Good thing I have some at home.
