First Weekly Round Up From My Other Tumblr
I have two tumblr blogs. This one, which is for stuff relating to my art and comics, and bigfootrock.tumblr.com, which is more of a personal blog, where I mainly reblog stuff I like but also occasionally talk about stuff and post other things too. Of course, there’s a good chance that if you follow this one, there may be things on the other that will interest you, so I’ve decided to...
Go Buy Prints Of My Art (If You Want To) →
There’s a couple of Ideasman pieces available there (including the one from the previous post) as well as a few of those geek-heroes-as-musicians pieces from last autumn. I get 25% of any purchase you make, so do consider getting the most expensive options so I can buy that Norwegian castle I’ve been dreaming about.

Would anybody be interested in buying this as a print? I can make that happen. Posted via email from PARTICLE FICTION | Comment »
THINGS I WOULD LIKE YOU TO KNOW
Yesterday I posted a quick rundown of some of my comics that are available to read for free online- and also Hypergirl, which isn’t free, but is reasonably priced, and, yknow, award-winning. What? You know I’m going to keep pointing that out.
Anyway, it occurred to me a bit later that Sunday evening might actually be the least effective time to post such a thing, so that’s why...

You asked what comics I’m reading, here’s what I’m behind on and what I picked up today:
Marvel Black Panther - Liss, Oeming, Serrano Generation Hope - Asmus, Roberson, Charalampiois New Mutants - Abnett, Lanning, D.Lopez, A.Lopez, Staples The Invincible Ironman - Fraction, Larroca, D’Armata …
My goodness, Jackie, that’s a lot of books. I thought *my* pull list was...
My Stuff
In recent months quite a few new people seem to have stumbled across me either here or on twitter. Seems like a good time to do one of those “who I am and where I am” type posts like Warren Ellis does from time to time.
So, my name is David Wynne, and while I make my living working as a hospital porter on the night shift, the thing I want you all to know about me is that I am a...
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT (repeat)
I have decided from here on to keep this tumblr strictly business, from now on all you’ll find here is art and stuff that is in some way related to my comics work.
For more social networky type stuff - rebloggings, gif wars and general fun- I’ll be over at bigfootrock.tumblr.com so please follow me there for that kind of thing. I’ve got an ask box there and everything.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
So, tumblr cause me consternation- on the one hand, I want to take part in the social aspect, reblog stuff, have gif wars and all that; on the other hand, I like being able to link people to my blog and have them understand what they find there.
Now, as it happens, I do have a second tumblr, bigfootrock.tumblr.com - and it’s FINALLY occurred to me that I should use that for the social...

So, about a month ago, I was invited to take part in Alan David Doane’s latest project, Flashmob Fridays. I gladly accepted, partly because I’ve long been a fan of Alan’s writing, and consider him to be one of the best critics of comics there is, and partly because I’ve wanted an excuse to write more stuff on the internet for a while. I recommend heading over there-...

If you only follow me on tumblr you’re probably best reading from the start of the chapter because I’ve been very bad at keeping you lot updated on the comic updates, sorry!
If you’re COMPLETELY new to the comic, the week before the chapter started was recap week, so that’s a good place to start without having to do too much archive binging.
The next couple of weeks...

Just so you know, I am available to hire for the writing of comics.

Editors: hire Ian. Also: I can make marks on paper that tell a story.
Please excuse slight oddness of that last post. It was an automatic crosspost from Particlefiction.posterous.com.
BUY HYPERGIRL NOW ON COMIXOLOGY!
You all remember Hypergirl, right? It was issue 11 of this here comic, but don’t go looking for it, as I’m afraid I’ve removed it from here now. Because, you see, I want you to buy it. You can do so right at this link here. If you want to remind yourself of what it’s like, there’s an eight page preview at orangutancomics.co.uk. Hypergirl is going places. I will...
COMPETITION!
So, Hypergirl finally went live on Comixology last night.
Get it here RIGHT NOW
I thought it would be nice to have a competition to force you all to buy it celebrate the release!
So here’s the idea: take a screenshot or photo of your phone or computer showing Hypergirl in your “my comics” section on Comixology. Send it to me- either by putting it in a reblog of this post, or...

The Complete Twitter Comic 2011
So. This is what I did yesterday: I went down to Southampton on the invitation of my lovely friends from the Monkey On My Back podcast, to be artist in residence for their latest Twitter comic. What’s a Twitter comic, you ask? Well, first off all, the lovely monkeys asked for suggestions for a story premise on twitter, then held a vote for the best one- and then, yesterday, I made a comic...

I’m mainly posting about this now so that I’ll feel obliged to actually do it, because it will be awesome.

The End Of An Era
iandsharman:
This last weekend I attended my eleventh London MCM Expo, it was my tenth as an exhibitor. Initially I attended with Markosia, as one of their creators, but it wasn’t long before I had my own table in the newly founded Comic Village to promote my own publishing endeavour, Orang Utan Comics. So, I’ve been attending the show for over five years now, and in that time I and my colleagues...
