Tim ‘hippy fuck’ Danko is now a highly sought after collectible artist. I’ve heard he does a zine or something.

Also, you can now see Alice Mrongovious, Mandy Ord, and Greg MacKay all in SBS Network’s new web thinger, ‘Cornerfold’.

“Go mad for it”. Okay.



from Private MacKay:

Sources indicate that PURE EVIL and SILENT ARMY are both causing heavy losses in central Melbourne Central Business District. Weekly sorties into CITYLIGHTS held territory are used to distribute comics and related art every Saturday from 11 to 3 until January 23rd.

January 23rd( to be precise) Marks the occasion of the end of the Citylights/Silent Army Represents.. Offensive and the opening of a new campaign at Hush Hush Gallery. Features include Royalchord and 8 Melbourne artists creating mutlimedia comics weirdness… to move and seemingly come to life before your very eyes..

Happy New Year everyone!

Odds and ends:

Athonk is now in California, and has updated his page on his own and Indonesian comics. Turns out the group Apotik Komik from Indonesia may come out to California in 2003!

All comics in Cambodia could pretty much be called small press. During the Socialist time there was a small but measurable samizdat small press, usually escapist in theme. (Not so much comics or zines as novels & short stories, rented out.) If you read French, try Olivier de Bernon’s ‘ Literature of the Years of Miseries ‘ .

If not try Altavista or Google for an imperfect translation.

Don’t forget, if you’re in Melbourne – Cornerfold Launch Party and Singularity Launch Party tomorrow.

Oh, tragic fate that we have to make such choices!
