I am uncomfortable watching myself nervously talking about my passion for Australian comics, so I enter this more for the information shared and for future posterity, rather than with any sense of personal ego. The talk was arranged by Consultant Ellen Forsyth for the State Library of New South Wales and was recorded live last week on the 7th December. If you have any questions (or comments), please leave them in the Comments section (below), and I'll be happy to answer them. (If I know the answer!)

Nat matched me up with some great artist's that really suited the stories I had written. I am extremely grateful for that. On another subject. One artist that has seemed to have just slid off the planet in productivity and the general conversation of his impact and influence on current creators is Tony Edwards and his crazy creation Captain Goodvibes (and others). I strongly recommend his collection available from Flying Pineapple Media. A beautiful oversize omnibus of his work from the 70s and 80s. 13/12/2016 15:56:24
