Dive dive DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!

Whoops. I forgot I've been sitting on the last couple of Tokion/Garo comics for quite some time. Here's the last Toyo Kataoka strip... Submarine Family!

GRANNY NOOOOOO!

I'm still working over my fevered little brain how to get this comic jam thing to work. I really really reeeeeeeeeally need to talk to the guys at Bedrock City because they expressed a definite interest in making this happen (even if it's just to promote their store...)

Still chugging forward on the comic which is almost finished (not almost enough though for my tastes) and I've uploaded some more Toyo Kataoka manga. Cheggit Oot.

~bonk~

More Tokion manga! This time we've got the first of three strips by Toyo Kataoka. Let's kick things off with Building Fetish...

Mo manga, mo problems...

I am seriously jazzed. Less than two weeks until the comic jam!

Also I've uploaded some more Tokion/Garo manga for your enjoyment. This time we've got Jiro Ishikawa's Got Little Got Big.

When it rains it pours...

I really need to figure out a way to make more money. Because between being up to my eyeballs in debt and the transmission in my wife's car crapping out things are pretty tight. Anyways, let's change the topic of conversation to something more pleasant shall we?

I've scanned and upped the second half of Kiriko Nananan's Paint in Water Colour for your enjoyment.

Last night I was Burgin' like Candice...

My bebbeh and I got ahold of some tasty chimichuri sauce and mixed it up with some ground beef, cooked it up good and topped it with some sauteed onions and havarti and served that up on toasted Hawaiian king rolls. Best burgers ever. And for dessert we enjoyed some frozen deliciousness from Bruster's which is quite frankly the best ice cream I've ever had.

But enough food talk. I've got some more Tokion manga up for you guys to see over at my Tumblr. This time we're shifting focus from gonzo comedy to pensive dramatic territory with Kiriko Nananan's story Paint in Water Colour.

Pardon our dust...

I'm in the middle of switching all my stuff over to a new host and working with a new laptop to get everything set up so I know what the hell I'm doing and I still need to configure my ftp so I can access my webspace and put stuff on it.

In the meantime I've been chilling out by digging through some of my old books and I found a couple of old issues of the fashion magazine Tokion I bought way back when. Now the fashion stuff I could care less about. The reason I picked these publications up is because for a while each issue had a mini-comic bound in with strips ganked right from the pages of Garo, Comic Cue, etc. So I figured I'd share these quasi-lost* gems with everyone. I'm kicking things off with a healthy dose of two-fisted awesomeness courtesy of Yusaku Hanakuma.

fake edit: Holy crap. I just poked around on hanakuma.com for the first time in quite some while and the guy has got some crazy merch. I certainly would not mind having the Fujio and Mitsuo Iphone app...

*Lost to me anyways. I forgot I had this stuff...
