Binary Simon

...is my first (and so far only) attempt at creating something for the comic book medium. I put it together for a desktop publishing class in 2007 using stock images, Quark and Photoshop. I've been holding this back since then because it comes off as so ridiculously pretentious -- God makes a cameo and assumes control of the narrative for a few pages -- that it was hard for me to read after I graduated from college and got my mind right. That being said, I feel that by now I've matured to the point where I can laugh at all this and take some measure of pride in a few panels. One last note: I've since forgotten how to use Quark and Photoshop entirely and all that remains of this is the final .pdf that was taken to the printer. For one reason or another, the cover is the last page.

My Review of That New HBO Show

As lifted from my facebook page:

Contrary to her own ridiculously self-righteous opinion of herself, Lena Dunham is not the voice of our generation. She is a spoiled art world brat who became famous by portraying a spoiled art world brat on film. This has nothing to do with what is going on in the country or the world right now, and the idea that we as a generation will be remembered for aspiring to this sort of character type is absolute poppycock. In conclusion, Girls is going to be a huge show and I hate you all for watching it.

R.I.P. Jean Giraud

Yesterday, the world lost one of its greatest artists, Jean Giraud aka Moebius, a 73-year-old Frenchman who'd been destroying shit since the late '50s/early '60s. To put it simply, Moebius was and always will be a bad motherfucker. If you're unfamiliar with his work, please take some time to appreciate the man's creative genius, a source of inspiration for countless filmmakers, graffiti artists, authors and fellow comic book illustrators the world over.
