Hello to all.

I'm happy to announce that "Metropolis" will make a gallery appearance late this year and and early 2013.  If you are in Richmond, BC I hope you will come by and check it out.  I'll post details very soon.

Hi

So I've been messing with the layout of the on-line version of the comic trying to get it to look consistent.  The problem is that "Metropolis" exists firstly in the Fold-Your-Own-Comic version.  The layout of the panels and pages in that format don't jive with a consistent layout for the on-line version.  It could be consistent if I make every chapter 8 full page panels, but I don't want to do that.  I wouldn't be able to make any groovy double page spreads.

After lots of work and experimenting, I think I've come up with a reasonable solution.  Over the next little while, I'll be updating the past chapters to the new layout.  Anyone who is collecting the on-line version will now have a nice clean layout to view them through.

Hope you're enjoying the story.

Have a good day.

Roger Calico Bunny! The Assonance Song.

Hi

Here is a song I wrote about Roger C. Bunny. 

My wife named him.  I suggested that Calico be his middle name. 

I always thought that Roger was a peculiar name for a bunny.  It was only weeks later that I realized that my wife never intended his name to be Roger Bunny.  The name she had in mind was Roger Rabbit.  I'm can be a bit vacuous sometimes....

Anyway, Roger C. Bunny became his permanent name mostly to remind me of how I sometimes miss the point.

Assonance is when you rhyme the vowel sounds but not the consonants.  Assonance was given some notoriety in the film "Educating Rita" when the title character described it as "getting the rhyme wrong".

Here is the Assonance Song:

Roger C. Bunny
He likes your tummy
He thinks your nice
And he know what he likes
He thinks your fun
And he has cotton on his bum
Cotton on his bum

Have a good day.
