Hi there, cheers for being our friend. We like your artwork - very dark, very mood. Niccce. Tis a style we wish we could emulate, but, alas, we're condemned to always have to draw like untalented cretins. Sighhh. Keep up the good work!

Wow Tom, I tried to look up yr 24 hour comic on my work computer and apparently your website has 'potential offensive content', so my poor little eyes aren't allowed to view it. Never mind I'm working at a car sales showroom, which is automatically a social health hazard. COmics are the real problem.

Ok, so I've booked my (non-mega) bus to the big smoke, all 12 hours of it each way. I'll be half-asleep and mighty pissed-off with fellow travelling people at 7am (Sun) when I arrive. Anyway, the point is: I'll be leaving at about 3.30pm from Liverpool St for my adventures in Cambridge if you can manage a more civilised time (say sometime between 10 and 2 or something) to meet. I'm sorry, I don't even know if this makes sense, I'm too tired! x

I am not going to be in Aberdeen on 16th (Sat), I will infact be in London from around about 8 'til 3/4ish before I head to Cambridge. Coffee perhaps? x

Just did this - I'm in two minds. I agree with the dufferish sentiment, but graffiti? Surely that is the anti-duff and requires summary castration?
