Machine Gum in Broken Pencil

My minicomic Machine Gum was profiled and chosen as the December zine of the month by Broken Pencil Magazine. Reviewer Sarah Pinder says of the collection:

Witty, twee one panel comics including zombies, lesser known villains, punny animal jokes and word associations. A highlight is the list of “words you may despise,” complete with matching non-representational images—a series of hairy, squelching doodles that seem to be an attempt to capture a viewer’s feelings about words like “swab” and “jammies”. A clever, well drawn and sometimes sweet collection that I connected with right away.

What a lovely review. It’s now my mission to have every review of my work include the words “twee” and “squelching”.  Also, this is a kick in the pants for me to get my online store up-and-running, so fine folks can order these books.  E-mail me if you want one.
