It's Coming Already!


I have now finished 11 pages of 28 for Banal Pig three. I have five weeks left and although i'm confident i'll get it finished, i've got to get my arse in gear as i've got a lot of stuff on in november. In the spirit of the sneaky peek, heres the first two panels of Jolly Bear and fun coconut, which almost carries on from the seperate minicomic which they feature in which is STILL AVAILABLE, but hurry last few copies left!

My collaborator and great mate Gareth Van Brookes is putting out a MAN MAN Xmas special which is shaped like a party hat and he is including a little cracker style joke in each one. Here are some that we have come up with so far, but he needs your help with more...

XMAS JOKES

What do barbers have for Xmas dinner?

Turkey and all the TRIMMINGS!

What tax does Mayor Ken Livingstone levy on Londoners eating their christmas dinner?

INDIGESTION Charge!

What record of the days adventures does James T. Kirk make on Xmas Day?

The Captain's YULE LOG!

Come on friends- make a difference and your joke could really affect someones life!

New Anthology I'm putting together

Call for Applications

I am looking for contributions for a comic/writing anthology, entitled The BP (Banal Pig) Portrait Prize. There is no prize however, it’s just called that because of the real BP Portrait Prize (at the National Portrait Gallery in London), which is a bit rubbish. Anyway the theme of the anthology (unsurprisingly) is Portraiture, and this could take a number of forms, e.g. self-portraiture or a portrait of something/someone that you either love or hate.
The tone I’m looking for is light-hearted or tongue in cheek, and this can include weird and dark, but no po-faced tributes to your granddad or anything like that. It can be any of these forms:
Image and text
Comic Strip
Prose/ poetry
Or Large Pic/s with no text at all.

I’m not particularly bothered about technical artistic skill as long as it’s heart felt and genuine, and no shit please.

Email me at stevotillotson@hotmail.com if you’re interested.
