Comics for December 17, 2009 - Headphones

HELLO!

First post/comic in far too long!

This comic was created using Brushes on the iPhone, still getting the hang of it, but I’m planning to try and use it to make comics on the go.

This comic came out of a conversation with a work colleague, discussing why are headphones actually named so, and not something like ear speakers.

Until next time

Well it’s not really a comic, but I thought I’d share something I did for a friends site.
I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I did a comic.

I’ve had all sorts of problems with my pc and getting hold of software to make the comics, and haven’t quite worked out when to fit this in to married life, but if I’m honest I probably could have done some at some point, even if not once a week.

I have started sketching some ideas out, but need to look at my process as it currently takes a lot of time to make a comic, partly due to using photopaint rather than photoshop, something I’m thinking about changing.

I also am going to be a bit more relaxed about style and ‘cleanness’ of the comics, some of them may come out a bit more sketchy than before, and indeed perhaps each one will have a different style, one that suits the comic rather than trying to be close to what has come before.

So, I’m not making any promises, but perhaps you might see something new here at some point, and if there is, I’ll be sure to let you all know.

Edit: Wow ok I sorta remember how to use the new site now! :-/

So, basically there was a problem with the old sites cms that meant we lost a few comics, and when Phil reinstalled the cms the extra things that needed doing to make it work as intended were a pain.

Then he came by comicpress, and hey presto some php hosting and wordpress install and here we are.

The only trouble is I need to reupload the entire 5 years of comics and blogs needs to be recreated. I’ve started but it will be a while before things are fully working.

You can view the old site and comics here in the mean time: http://monkeyz.qbic.ee/

More updates soon, and perhaps even a new comic or two!

Comics for September 26, 2007 - Taking The Piss

True story, yes this actually happened.
I’ve been meaning to make this comic for, well, probably years.
When looking for a comic to do this one was top of the list.

It’s a bit strange to put this up, as Garfield sadly passed away on the 6th of September.
He’d had some eye problems for a while, but recently he got a lot worse and couldn’t see or hear very far.
It’s been really hard times of late, and this just one of the things going on.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the comic, I hope to do some more with Garf’s in.
