Right, so everything’s as ugly as usual around here (apart from the new header)
A big round of applause to Ulf Reese Næsborg who fixed the stray code that messed things up!

Just my rotten luck. No sooner do I brag about the design changes before the sidebar goes AWOL, down below the footer.
My php and css is rustier than the Titanic, so suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Well, that was some hiatus, caused by – well, life I suppose 
The past few days I have been fervently retweeting live updates from Iranian sources over on my Twitter account
The blanket the Iranian government has attempted to lay on all media and communications was successfully breached by a few twitterers, assisted by supporters outside Iran who have set up proxies so people could circumvent the blockade.
But you know this. It’s enough that I think I have been doing something that for a period overruled my need to make comics. If you’re curious for more information, go to Twitter.com and search for the hashtags “iranelection” or “gr88″

A few days ago I dug out my Entombed records in search of some good inking music. As always I was blown away by the crude power of their music, and their way of infusing new life into old favorites.
Especially their cover of Kiss’ God of Thunder socked me in the face with the simple riff and deliciously idiotic lyrics. I was never a Kiss fan, and always thought that somehow their music didn’t add up to the band’s image.

Work on Astoria singles progressing at a steady pace, even though I have dropped everything else to prepare singles in time for MoCCA Art Fest June 6th-7th.
Scaling down from 12″ to 7″ square pagesize freshens up the work, as does the tight schedule. It’s both exciting and counter-productive to work against the clock like this but I often find it a great way of getting stuff out.

I went and turned off the daily posting of my Tweeting, and deleted the auto-generated posts. Although it serves as a sort of update, it felt like cheating.
Also, it’s sort of demoralizing to have it spelled out on the frontpage how little I actually blog
If anybody was actually following the Rants Daily series, why don’t you go follow me on Twitter instead ya lazy bums?

Mix Tape has recently been reviewed on Portuguese comics site Chili com carne. The article is witten by Marcos F., who I chatted up on the last night of SPX Stockholm.
I’ll post a translation of the text when I’m on the laptop again

During the Stockholm SPX this weekend I got hold of the latest League of Extraordinary Gentlemen book, Century: 1910, habitual Alan Moore oniomaniac that I am.
Upon first reading, I am somewhat underwhelmed, even if the artist and author are visibly having a ball with the contrafact, pre-war period piece.
