The British Senate: lacking ambition and imagination.

March 14th, 2010 | by Pressyuk
Posted In: blog

Plans have been leaked revealing the future of the House of Lords. Specifically there won’t be one because its going to be abolished. The aim is to do away with the existing 704 members and replace it with a 300 member chamber fully elected. Other ideas called for recall votes for incompetent or corrupt members, “artificial balance” to ensure that women and minorities are “adequately” represented and for the name to be picked by popular vote which means its going to be called “The Senate”.

Friday – Will And Ben’s iPod Trouble

October 9th, 2009 | by Pressyuk
Posted In: Uncategorized

Ah, those cads! Will they never learn their lesson! People who patently do not like each other should not volunteer to go get munchies for mates at 3am!!! Especially when your musical interests are as emo as Gladstone’s!

Yes, I was pretty bored but I got reading Hark, a vagrant by Kate Beaton which showcases the finest in historical tomfoolery and it inspired me to make my own (admittedly crap) tribute. Heres to you, Kate Beaton of the Maritime- I mean PIER 21 museum!!!

It was the Pier 21 museum? Right?

The good and the bad.

First of all, the bad. The irony is so sweet and hilarious it raises a smirk just to read what she says..and then look at what shes wearing (or not wearing). Superb.

But now, the good!

I don’t really like flooding my links page with comic links but if I like what I see when I’ll point it out. Here are two perfect cases:


Ashtray3

Ashtray3 is set in another universe in a much more gritty and yet humourous depiction of an Alice in Wonderland scenario. There are bits which make you squeamish but then again if you can watch Rugby great Martin Johnson get his face stitched back together you can watch anything. Very well written and drawn and I’d love to see how this goes.

Supernormal Step

Supernormal Step follows the same idea with the same level of weirdness but is a little more family friendly and adds a dash more humour. The drawing again is top notch although it does lack the shading although this could be down to timing constraints or a certain style the artist is gunning for. It has just started so the story hasn’t panned out a great deal but it looks great. 

Those are comics I back, the above comic however…no.
