Graylin
A friend asked me how the Twisted Tales thing come about. I told him that I never really submitted anything to them but then I remembered Graylin.
This was a half arsed attempt of a comic I started back in 1999 and sent in March 2000. It was a mess, I didn’t have a computer or a digital camera of my own and had to do it in dribs and drabs in my Da’s house. It stars a young Poncho and yes that is his real hair. I was new to Photoshop and didn’t really know what I was doing. I’m still fond of it and might give it another go, always loved photo comics like Doomlord and with my modern digital bag of tricks I reckon I could do it right.
Most of it is painfully bad but I still love the little gun that transforms into a cricket.
Poncho played Graylin, that dude in the lizard mask and that baby is also him too. The mutant bat was my dog Bozo, the lad shot in the face was Diamond D and Quinner was the villain. We shot the Museum scene on the sly and for most of it the security guards were shouting at us to stop but we didn’t which was funny. “Here! No photo’s!” “Yeah, in a minute, just one more”. What’s the problem? The animals are dead!

Ah graylin - back when you stunk of knacker drinking and battered sausages. That comic was deadly then and its still cool now - dont be getting all modest with your ‘its a mess’. Quinner looks deadly in it. Ha that last frame is very simlar to the warehouse invasion in adictos! You should post all your old shit.
On a separate note - ps3 is upon us - with snazzy sixasis sensitivity and no vibration.
