hmmmm. freak as i am i’ve decided to take a sabbatical … from making the fetishman comics. yes yes yes, i know, i’ve got a regular academic job i could take a sabbatical from but no. i’m taking a sabbatical from the comic making.

freak.

there’s a load of stuff i need to get done to keep the empire thriving and i’ve been a bit lax in the comix-pimpin’ of late. promotional stuff, distribution, i’ve got some awesome stuff on the burners that needs work: yes, the fetishman 12″ is more than just a terrifying rumour; a portfolio of prints for coffee, cake and kink; christmas cards and so forth; updating the website, myspace, and the deviantart repository. and then there’s also the other stuff: fat chunk getting taken on board by slave labor graphics and jamie’s asked me to contribute to issue 2 as well, a whole other website of rubbish and a comic that will make gilly cry if i don’t draw it.

this isn’t a break from updating the website – that’s going to stay weekly. issue 7 “the unexpected prequel” is already afoot and will be gracing the comic stores with yet more terribly sexy nun action from april 2008 with some hot nun flyering action in the run-up.

what can you do?

buy the comics: buying comics funds the making of more comics. find a comic shop that has yielded to my unearthly demands or simply get one posted to your door or portcullis from the fetishman shop:
www.fetishman.co.uk/fm/shop
at £2 including p&p it’s like a bargain but with more comedy gimp …

… and on the subject of comix-pimpin’ – come and join me and the fetishman-carnival for tea and illogic at any of the following:

Welcome to the primordial soup of this comic. it is destined to be a hybrid of steampunk and science jokes, but as yet it’s simply a hybrid of my lack of knowledge regarding wordpress and a lack of sleep. I imagine these themes shall persist.
