M the Mordant's Interests
|
| General | World domination, internet cartoons, comic books, missle silo secret bases.
And I also draw some super cool comic strips:
Hulk Vs. Bizzaro Comic Strip:
For more comics strips, and to see my other work, visit
And doing groovy paintings:
| | Music | All of it. Except for the pre-fabricated, cheap-drum-beat-white-noise-corporate-hard-candy, aural stimulant that passes for Popular Music. Bands I enjoy, in no particular order: Wilco, Corb Lund, Josh Ritter, M. Ward, Xavier Rudd, Apples in Stereo, Flaming Lips, Super Furry Animals, Gram Parsons, Mason Jennings, Johnny Cash, Man Or Astroman?, Jayhawks, Varnaline, Supergrass, Built to Spill, Frank Black, Guided By Voices, Sparklehorse, Elvis Costello, Pernice Brothers, Old 97's, Ben Folds, the New Pornographers, et al.
New stuff I'm in to: Rilo Kiley, Sentridoh, Slaid Cleaves, Wolf Parade, Arcehrs of Loaf, Portastatic The Elected, and the best fucking album in a long time, Neil Young's "Prairie Wind".
| | Movies | Fight Club. Star Wars. Godfather. That says it all I think. | | Television | I usually only get Closed-circuit TV here in my arctic base. But when the Satellite receiver decides to work I watch:The Shield (Best show ever!), The Venture Brothers, Heroes, House, The Riches, Dirty Jobs and not much else. Some how I got suckered into watching my second "reality" show "Project Runway" with the fashion designers. This has done nothing for M's street cred. The only other reality show I ever paid notice to was "Bands on the Run" a few years ago on VH1. Why haven't they brought that one back? They always cancel things I like. Or, in the case of the Simpsons, write them directly into the shitty, shitty ground. Shows that are awesome but no longer on: Arrested Development (Best show ever #2!!), Six Feet Under, Northern Exposure, Due South.
Lately I've gotten sucked into LOST, which is nothing more than a maddening series of cliff-hangers. But I keep coming back for more... NOt anymore. Fuck that show. It SUCKS. I quit you, Lost. Eat cold shit.
| | Books | The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Nothing in this Book is True but it's Exactly the way Things are, Slaughterhouse Five, Grendel by John Garnder, To Kill a Mockingbird, and I'm a Harry Potter NERD. Currently I reading "World Domination Through Dirty Real Estate Deals" by Donald Trump. I also read piles of comics on a regular basis. I dig on the "Fables", "Y the Last Man" and "100 Bullets" from Vertgo/DC. I hate most of that formulaic bullshit that passes for mainstream comics. I do love what Mark Millar has done with "the Ultimates", and I'll read just about anything by Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison, and the fucking MASTER, Allan Moore.
| | Heroes | Me.
All my other heroes are dead. Including my Grandfather, my father, Kurt Vonnegutt Jr., Johnny Cash, Jack Kirby, Albert Einstein, Hunter S. Thompson, Stanley Kubrick, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas "Slavefucker" Jefferson, Amida Pha Buddha, Joseph Campbell, Bill Hicks, Jesus and Obi-wan Kenobi.

About me:
I am a Graphic Designer and Artist living the good life in my secret, arctic base.
In my spare time I write and draw comics for 50 Foot Robot Studios
are a publisher of original, online comic books and a graphic design house with over 10 years of experience.
One of our comics, DOCTOR IMMORTALIS, is in this month's ZUDA Competition!
Please check it out, and, if you dig it, sign up and vote!

Our other comics are a varied assortment of concepts and stories for your entertainment. Up now is a Sci-Fi Murder Mystery called VENT.
Also in development is a book about
Bounty Hunters who track down Super Villains called SKIP TRACERS.
Before you hit that "Add to Friends" button over there, why don't you read the following:
I don't give a shit about your crapfuck band. STOP SENDING ME MESSAGES TO "CHECK YOU OUT". You may THINK I would like your "sound", but I happen to KNOW that I won't. Because you fucking SUCK. Now cut it out. Seriously! Please, please, please bands and dudes with faggy pictures of them posing in suits: STOP CONTACTING ME. I don't like you. You're no good at what you do. Stop it. Please.
Other than that: I'm your typical would-be world conqueror. In my spare time I draw comics, write music, pet my pretty, pretty, princess doggy Cleo, hang out with my wife Kelly, indulge in artistic fetishes, view porn, and pine wistfully, wondering why so many other, lesser people, attain success while M wallows in solitude and obscurity. I have to wonder if that would change if I spent more time working and less time with the porn..

Who I'd like to meet:
Lackeys, henchmen, goons, thugs, and sinister super-spy ladies with a black widow bite
