Remember THIS Dork Tower? So, apparently, the BBC owns the trademark on Police Boxes, or somesuch. Meaning I can’t make anything with CthulWHO and the Police Box unless it’s licensed officially. Which seems like a bit of a long-shot, let’s be honest. That being the case…how would you like a download of the CthulWHO […]
Thirty years ago, more or less, I drew my first true gaming comic. It was based on the little black books of the Traveller roleplaying game – my perenial favorite. I drew it for a ‘zine based in London, Alien Star. Alien Star was created by a chap who ran the Minifigs store near…um…Victoria, […]

I do actively try and stay away from such things – possibly a mistake on my part…possibly a good thing. There are […]
The Finish Line Two things are critical to your art. Starting It and Finishing It. This is just my opinion, you understand. Different pen strokes for different folks. IMHO, YMMV, LMFAO, and all that. But really, the more I contemplate it – the more I look back on my career, and look ahead to […]
Today is Scott “Igor” Olman’s birthday! Scott’s my good buddy, on whom Igor is loosely based. I say “loosely,” because if I wrote what Scott actually gets up to in a game into the comic strip, nobody would ever believe me. Yes, that’s right: I tone down Igor. So please join me in saying a […]
