Agua No Potable

I was trying to work the word “MARSgarita” into this comic. I think I’m pretty dead on with my predictions for the fate of the red planet. All’s I’m saying is if space had a South, Mars would be South of Earth. Check back with me in 50 years and let’s see if I’m right.
Maybe […]

It’s All In The Editing

While the new Microsoft ads make more sense than the “Bill and Jerry” ads, in that they do appear to be advertising something other than confusion, I don’t see how they are supposed to be selling me on Vista. The campaign is a clear rebuttal to Apple’s “Macs are cool slackers and PC’s are John […]

Propaganda’s Small Press avalanche concludes with David Baillie

(David Baillie self portrait - from his website.)
David Baillie’s one of the names of the UK small press scene. In as much as he seems to have been around for a long time and is always mentioned as one of it’s leading lights. But I hadn’t seen much of his work and certainly hadn’t sat […]

Star Wars Clone Wars

Just a quick note to remind you that we’ve got a street date, November 11th, for the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated film that premiered (and tanked) at the box office in August. The movie was the run-up to the television show that premieres on the Cartoon Network on October 3rd.
Of course, I wouldn’t […]

Why The Dark Knight (didn’t) suck[ed]

Let’s make this short and sweet while my thoughts are still fresh:
Lately the contributors and myself here have been “The Dark Knight” centric with a lot of our material-It’s probably safe to say that we are obsessed with this DC comic franchise and of course we caught on with the tide and rode the wave […]

Tropic Chunder?

$10 says Mad Magazine or Cracked use that same title.
When I say that many of these comics are autobiographical, please believe me. For not one, not two, but three of my friends approached me with roughly the same review of “Tropic Thunder.” It just so happens they were the three featured regularly in HijiNKS Ensue. […]

Cuatro de Julio

Did I get the Spanish right this time? (edit: NO! but I fixed it.)
Enjoy your day off, explodify as many things and possible and eat something that was cooked outdoors. If you see anyone from Great Britain, make sure you enunciate all your “H’s.” That’ll remind them how they lost this sweet ass […]
