Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to meet people that are interested in comics and like to read them online or make them themselves. If you like comics then you'll love the UK Web & Mini Comix Thing which is taking place in London March 22 2008. If you like comics then get on board!!!!
This beautiful super-heavyweight LP, which comes packaged in a sweet full-colour sleeve reunites the UK's premier free drummer Alex Neilson, who's played, amongst others, with Motor Ghost, Directing Hand, Trembling Bells, Tight Meat Duo, Josephine Foster, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Jandek, MV&EE, Richard Youngs, Baby Dee and Alastair Galbraith, with Nmperign member Greg Kelley, whose reinvention of the trumpet is as crucial now as Anthony Braxton's reinvention of the sax was 30 years ago. A screeching, soaring, scattergun array of noises come maniacally out of Greg's horn, unlike anything we've ever heard and, with the addition of random stabs of electronics, he successfully straddles no wave, concrete and free jazz in a way that makes those genres seem like trite pigeonholes.

Torpedo fiction quarterly mark the 25th anniversary of the death of author Richard Brautigan with a special tribute issue co-edited and with a foreword by Richard Brautigans daughter Ianthe Brautigan.
The special issue features Brautigan inspired fiction from 30 writers, a section of Brautigans own writing in the middle plus a specially designed envelope containing 8 full colour A5 double-sided prints featuring artwork based on his stories. One of which prints is a comic strip by myself, using Richard Brautigans own text, called 'The Library'.
Hope for the Future is a new serial webcomic of three ordinary students as they stumble from one bizarre adventure to the next, beset by strange creatures, ghostly goings on, evil conspiracies and a fair amount of unresolved sexual tension. Also: nob gags.
