Here’s some comics I’ve read over the past week. I’ve enjoyed several comics written by Matt Fraction, so I gave this a go — even though I’ve barely read any Iron Man comics since I was… hm… I may actually never have been reading Iron Man comics ever? I mean, I read Avengers and stuff, but never the Iron Man title....
Like many nerds, I feel so embarrassed whenever I see that I’ve misspelled something. But some years back when I started producing text in huge amounts for things like the Eclipse Comics read-through I realised that my options were: 1) Remain neurotic about this stuff and produce one blog post per week, or 2) Start...
About a month ago I discovered that the scripts that classify pages as either “text” or “comics” on kwakk.info‘s section for “text pages from comics” (*phew*) didn’t like pages like the above. Which meant that all letters pages that had illustrations and stuff were categorised as comics and left out of the search...
I’m continuing to root through the hoard of Commodore 64 diskette images from the 80s I rediscovered the other day, and I found that the diskettes contained a large number of files called things like DDLARS3. That’s my name! So what could they be? Well, some Googling shows that the DD files are from Doodle Draw,...
I’ve been vaguely reading the Bubbles RSS feed for the past month or so. Bubbles aggregates a bunch of “small web”/”indie web” blogs, which sounds like it should give you a variety of diverse, interesting things to read: Original, different approaches to writing and design and etc etc etc, right? I don’t want to be...
But surely they can’t be more than forty years? Anyway, when I was like fifteen, I cracked a bunch of Commodore 64 games. Games came on tapes, and they usually had some sort of turbo loader thing. Most of the turbo loaders were straightforward, but some were heavily obfuscated as a form of copy protection. So my...
tl;dr: I found a trove of C64 disk images, so I put them on the web. Have fun playing some bad old games! OK, here’s the story: I’ve been digging through old documents, and I found the old charts for the game I was writing when I was sixteen. Which made me wonder whether I had the disk images for the work in...
Extremely observant readers of this blog may have noticed a preponderance of posts about ancient, random stuff over the past few months — and the reason is the above. I’ve been living in this apartment for almost twenty years now. In the beginning, I kept this loft storage space somewhat well organised. It’s nice to...
I think this is probably the last post in this series of blog posts resulting from me digging through boxes and boxes in the attic (and other cupboards and drawers), looking for things to get rid of. But I’m keeping some of the above, because I just have to. I traced this from an issue of Love and Rockets to use in...
