THE MINDSCAPE OF ALAN MOORE



Ok. Alan Moore.You know the guy, or else you don't belong here :p
You might have even seen or heard of a documentary film about him, directed by Dez Vylenz.
Well, if you didn't catch it anywhere, worry not anymore.
After several months of hard work dedicated to presenting a unique wealth of material, Dez finally completed the DVD version of the movie for release.
For more info and preorders, visit the shadowsnake site.
Enjoy!

Angouleme









And here are some photos from the Angouleme Festival.One of these days I will propably be making a 3 page piece cartoon-style,which will be rather more informative.

Τhe Greek Way

Just started a greek-speaking blog for posting domestic stuff.(No, I don't have too much free time in my hands.I just know how to misuse my long working hours :p)

Yes!

It's that time of the year again!

We are not amused

I miss having a king and queen in Greece-makes a cartoonist's life easier and all.Still, the former royalty still manages to provide a few laughs from time to time.
The current goverment pretends to be amazed by the fact that several items that the same goverment people allowed the former royalty to export from the palace -following of course the appropriate protocol (in the dead of the night,in plastic bags thrown in unmarked containers by beefy guys named Vito),surfaced currently in auction houses.
Fingers are being pointed about "great loss of significant cultural treasures" and such*, but i think they are all missing the point:
Former royalty having to sell their tea cups in order to make next month's rent? Hey,I would pay handsomely to read such news!
(*several lower people have already circulated cheap jokes about the "Royal Vibrator",a low kind of humour which I happily reproduce).

Cover-up


Working 24/7 for the completion of the new "Photographer" album, due for an early March release.While playing around with cover ideas, I thought it might be interesting to post the process of one idea, from concect sketches to a presentable state.It will propably change significantly later.

Beginnings and Ends

It's an unwritten male tradition to listen to ol' Sinatra tunes during the xmas holidays.I suspect every one of us would like to listen to "It was a very good year" and "My Way" and check whether he feels like this one year it was written just for him.

Never Happens :-)

It was not a year of victories.But it was, more than any year I can remember, a year of balance.Nobody wins, nobody is clearly defeated, none retreats.Exit Saddam, but exit Rumsfeld as well.Everyone is counting their losses,and everything balances.

On the personal level, the same pattern appears.What appeared to be an average year up till September, culminated in a roller-coaster ride that left me completely trasnformed, while still absolutely the same.
For those hating cryptic remarks (myself included), this means that the grand events of my life this year served as the wake-up calls that make one want to become the most of what he can become.
A beloved presence left forever(and I mean the bad kind of "forever").An already beloved presence entered (for what looks like the good kind of "forever").Exits and Entries.Scars and medals of honour.Everything Balances.

A toast to the 007 Year.

And the growing army of new entries thanks to friendly couples who take reproducing the species somewhat more seriously than me :-)
