    My four books shape up thus: EVIL STEEV. Steev is just a normal, everyday french b-boy with a particular liking for ice cream. But all that ice cold creaminess cant be good for your brain and one day after a particularly heavy session he finds himself with the ice cream lovers hangover, the dreaded brain-freeze! Steev and his poor brain fail to recover from 'the freeze' and Evil Steev is born! POOPAHSOO! Queen Poopahsoo has everything she could ask for.....except a private army of zombies! So she pulls her resources to make it happen with the help of the fabled lolly of sacharina. Will Poopahsoo finally have her wish? There's only one way to find out. ANGIE SAN AND MEEKAY ROBOTO. Angie San and Meekay Roboto is a tale of girl scientist gets frustrated, girl makes robotic boy, boy turns out to be stupid and girl gets even more frustrated. Romance, baking and heartbreak all wrapped up in a big metallic ball! HOBO VS WINO. Have you ever wondered how that smelly guy who lives under the railway bridge really got to where he is today? Well this book attempts to answer that very question with overtones of evolutionary theory and a whole lotta green!

I am an artist and illustrator based in London. My art work is drawing based and usually takes the form of installation or graffiti. I also write illustrated story books told in poetry which I produce comics on a DIY basis at the mo but hope to become a published artist sometime soon. oh yeah you can see my art work on Deviant Art thus: http://killerhippy.deviantart.com/ Also i have a wemakezines page here http://wemakezines.ning.com/profile/ChrisBateson and a blog here http://killerhippy.wordpress.com/ If you like the look of my work and wish to buy my comic please email me here cwbateson@hotmail.com Theres images of each of the book covers on the 'pics' section of this page. I'm a self publisher so it will probably be a bit of an arkward 'you send me money and i send you comic' kind of operation using paypal until my website is up proper.

Fellow artists and comics fans as well as poets, writers and generally cool peeps. oh yeah and earthworm jim.....obviously!

    Hey you!
    Happy Birthday!
    By the way, I still have your book ('Burton by Burton') so that would be cool that we meet soon so I can give it back to you! Moreover, I'm going back to France next month (end of Sept.) so I won't have lots of time to spend in London... Anyway, if we can not meet I could also post that book, but would be nicer to see you! And you could tell me about your comic (I guess it's finish since a long time now! Cause you were working on the end last time you gave news!).
    Well, I'm not gonna write a comment of 3 miles so Happy Birthday again! Hope that you're super-duper-fine! And maybe see you soon!
