Comics!

Clamnut Comix is a one man band with me on sax. My name is Bob Byrne, I'm an Irish born writer and artist currently living in Spain.

I was one of the first publishers of Irish comics and helped kick off the Irish comics industry with MBLEH and The Shiznit. After a few years of self publishing comics in Ireland I took a break to work on my first Graphic Novel, Mister Amperduke, an epic story told without words. I specialise in telling stories without words, some people call them 'pantomine comics' but I go with 'silent comics'.

I feel that silent comics are the purest form of story telling and that they make the most of the medium. The reader is more involved and can read the stories at their own pace instead of being dragged around from speech bubble to speech bubble. It’s a graphic medium so why so many words?

But don't get the impression that I'm some lah-de-dah comics scholar, you can see my disgraceful and silly webcomic SPAZZMOID here too which sort of balances it all out.

So take a look around, read some comics and be sure to bookmark, subscribe and check back regularly.

Free Comics

With The Shiznit being a free comic, the more or less complete issues are available here free for downloading. The Shiznit welcomes all submissions regardless of geography, but if you're Irish and even have a remote interest in making your own comics, get involved.
