This comic is gonna be quadruple the size it was originally slated to be, and it's going to come out in the fall, or else. Initially I was gonna do an issue-based serial book, but what with the "fickle economy", I've decided I'm going to spend the next few months drawing and put that and all the archival material into one big 100+ page shitpile of "Doo"-dads. So I'll see you in the fall.

Here's the 2nd part of the Doo pre-view, just to let you know I'm still breathing.
A few days left in the Europe tour, and then I'm gonna come home and put this to bed.
Late spring release, so help me gods.

I hate how technological advances on the web* are giving rise to really dorky names. Twitter, Google, Facebook. I spend most of my life talking like a total idiot. Anyway, I'm doing this twitter thing. It's a fast, easy way to send quick updates such as "Howie Doo is out now!" or "the new solo record got 0 stars in Spleen Magazine".
I'll be tweeting (cue eye roll) at twitter.com/nickfromislands

*web is a good exmaple

Beamz Me Up

Put away your laser harp, and stop trying to replicate the sound of a bassoon on your keyboard, because the real future of "the musical instrument" is on the scene and it's shattering sound barriers. This isn't your grandfather's acoustic guitar, and it's not your nephew's modular synthesizer. It's called Beamz and even the Asian girl who just got off her Kawasaki motor scooter can play these shits:

Actual Comic Book On Paper That You Can Touch Coming Shortly

2008-08-07T17:10:00.000-07:00

Sore-y (Sawry for those Americans listening) about the gaps between posts. I'm not even uploading a comic book with this post, so that's doubly sad. Anyyyyyway, the good news is that I'm going to start charging you to look at these pictures. The doubly good news is that it will come to you in good old fashioney print form sometime later this year, and it will be called This is Howie Doo and it will contain thousands upon thousands of drawings you've never seen before ever. That's all I'm legally required to tell you at this point. Anything else is heresay and filthy rumour. Below is proof that it's really me who does the drawing. If you squint your eyes and turn your monitor upside down, you can perchance catch a glimpse of scenes from one of the stronger serials.

Note to Self

2007-10-25T17:15:00.000-07:00

Self,
I have just finished "zeroxing" the newest and the latest comix. But instead of putting them up on this website for free, I'm gonna start sending them around to publishers so I can sell them for a lot of money. Kind of like the way Radiohead did it.

I just unloaded 5 comics (1 two-parter) from my old sketch book made last fall. seeeeeeeeeeeee beloooooooooooooooow.
My well had run dry in the past few months, so now that i'm finally off of life support I'll be making the effort to be more productive in the coming weeks. And there's still a back-log of mediocre strips to draw from, so stay peeled and keep sweet.

Golly gosh gee whiz sorry it's been so long. Hello? If you're indeed out there, please be patient, 'cos this is the week of reckoning and I reckon it'll be good. I'll probably upload the comics I was working at around the same time as the ones that are up here right now (even though I'm not really feeling them now) and get back into the drawing mode. It's nice to be back- i was out of town for 2 months if anyone's wondering why everything went to molasses.

3 Hollywood Proposals

2006-08-24T16:39:00.000-07:00

Road Chip: (based on true events) A mother and daughter dramedy. Louise and her daughter Margaret are watching late night TV when, in the midst of absent mindedly eating a big package of chips, they remove a chip that has, to their surprise, the face of the "Virgin Mary" (or Osama Bin Laden). They end up on the local news network and the cover of the two local newspapers in their very sleepy town. A casino owner in Las Vegas catches wind of this whimsical chip-tale, and offers them 3 million dollars for the fried potato- provided they can deliver it to him in person in 3 days.

Friendly Fire: a US soldier (Owen Wilson) befriends an Iraqi man and realizes the awful consequences of a corrupt war, before it's too late? Ben Stiller cameos as himself, sent to entertain the troops.

Charmed, I'm Sure: (based on true events) an Indian woman in a tiny village 50 miles outside of Bombay finds her long sickness seemingly cured after befriending a dangerous serpent, whom she meets unexpectedly under a tree one day. A marraige is arranged in the town square, but the snake is too nervous and remains in his snake hole. A wooden replica is used as a stand-in, but the woman remains loyal until the snake turns on her.
