Greetings From Uttertoad Comix


Hi.

My name is Michael Furious, and this is what I do. I make mini-comics.

That might sound small, but when someone tells you that, what it means is they're an artist, a writer, a poet, an irrepressible thinker. It means you're dealing with a dangerous individual, someone who is trying to make you think like them.

They need to show you something.

It's dead easy, see? You take a sheet of paper, and draw a story on it. You take another sheet of paper, and draw more story on it. You take those to a copier, copy each of them onto a both sides of a third sheet of paper, fold, staple, fold, and trim.

Bang, instant comic. Eight little pages of storytelling. A pocket idea.

And comics are great. You can do anything, go anywhere. Be as realistic, as abstract, as poetic or as didactic as you want. They're a great way to let all the impossible in you out, and better yet, put it inside others.

The best part is they're really, really cheap.

I'm glad to see you here. Have a look around the place, enjoy yourself. Drop me a line.

Empty your pockets.
