Cant wait for MR Ampurduke! When will it hit the stands? Whats the story with the comic cons man I checked out the Dublin City con flyer and your names not even on it! Are you not going or did they just snub you. I think we need to start a put Bob on the flyer campaign!

BLEH! This is what I come back to???
Neh, don’t know about being no.1, definitely top dog for indie/alternative/good comics but yiz can have that stinking superhero scene. Still amazed that I get so much praise without actually ever drawing anything well. You pack of SUCKERS.

Dec the Galway pics are up on Flickr now.
Luke, yep will be whomping some comics out in public for the 24hr event.
Everyone else, thanks a bunch, really is appreciated. The Bobcon plans are taking shape now, determined to get a proper game of Soggy Biscuit together.

Bob - while i’ve been waiting for Amperduke I have:

Got eaten by and nuked an internal bacteria
Saw a play - a fucking play!
Got markie a girlfriend - It was in my local so it counts
Lost faith in humanity
Shaved my balls

Please get it out before i get mine out. Ya know, for the ladies.

To hell with Byrne, he’s where he rightly deserves to be, far, far below me.
Seriously, i know Bob bein snuck in at the end was a last minute mistake, so i wouldn’t begrudge Ron or anyone else fer it.
Bob, mega congrats on finally finishin the ‘duke. To celebrate, you should go back and redraw the whole thing. In the meantime, enjoy yer holiday with the missus.
Oh yeah, me amd Will were thinkin of meetin up on the Friday before SubCon and doin a bit of drinkin and drawing, like that fateful train journey to Galway we took.

….i wonder what ‘Uisce’ is up to right now….

BOBCON! Hope I’m invited! Ye hafta get that together man. And that flyer for Subcon is high-larious! Can’t believe they stuck ye down there man, even if it is a wee bit funny! Just so you guys know, as a former member of the Atomic Diner crowd, we are all well aware(well the artists anyway) of Bob’s standing in the Irish comicbook scene, ie at the top. Really lookin forward to gettin all the boys together for Birmingham too. And cheers for the link to my blog, Bobert, I think you’re already up there in my links but better go check….
Enjoy the break!

Top stuff on the Amperduke completion - I look forward to seeing it all together on proper printed paper.
Jeezis though - a tenner into subcon is steep enough or am I totally out of touch with irishflation?

Wahey, so there’ll be another chance for you to take my money off me in a roundabout way sometime soon? AWESOME.

Personally, I think BobCon will be the greatest weekend comics event to hit Dublin, and I base this purely on assumptions about the amount of flarn you’ll be bringing with you to the event. Presumably mayhem will also happen, but since it would appear that Irish comics people are all quite fond of their booze this should be no surprise.

And yes, Bob, you look immensely gay in that pic. Presumably yer lady doesn’t mind though…
