I had the handwashing one and thought doing something about OCD but couldn't text it correctly to be funny....

# p.s. I love your captioned 1920s pictures,
best thing since Punch.

can you get them published at all? Maybe through Lula? (is what Jolly Jack uses)...

# I've looked at it, but the cost for colour is insane.
A proper printing and publishing is what is needed.
However, the last two companies that contacted me
didn't follow through after a bit. The jokes are a little
too nasty I think. I might just have to use vanity press
of some sort soon. A lot of people want hardcopy.
Which is flattering and I thank all of you for saying so.

# what I'd say is, it's quite easy to get humour fatigue after a while
reading 200+ pictures in a row.

maybe sell them on to a web newsletter, one at a time and reach a wide audience.


EDIT not like I haven't seen books a la same character in WH Smiths in the run up to Schristmas, stocking fillas etc, small format.

(What do I know, I'm an engineer...)

# Indeed. I think they would sell quite well.
But the overt sexual humour is a little stronger than what is usually seen.
Sort of my point or direction that I chose. Also illustrating Asbolina from a
child to her maturity is problematic in this age of insane anti-childpornism.
Not that actions are shown, but what is/I have implied is often much worse.

# even Private Eye might take a large selection of yours...?

# Oh fuck yeah. I'd jump at the chance to be in PE.
Yobs/Yobettes is fantastic and can get kinda close to the same level.
And "It's grim up north london" is one of my favorite comic strips ever.

Ok, I'll think about it, and perhaps send them a inquiry note.
