No Style No. 39: And thus Elton spaketh.

So I couldn’t resist taking another jab at the idea that apparently homosexuality has the power to bring about earthquakes, floods, and the end times in general, if we truly possess the powers that homophobes seem to think we do. One same-sex kiss and the world falls apart. Build your ark now, kiddos. Who knows when we dirty gays might start kissing again.

Sorry if the art’s a little hinky on this one. Okay, let’s be honest, sorry if the art looks like it was ganked from the cover of a post-apocalyptic Lisa Frank spiral-bound notebook. I’m still losing my bloody effin’ mind trying to manage five jobs at once (sad thing is, I spend more time on this job than all but one other, and you don’t want to know how little I’m paid for this), so I’m kinda cutting corners on comic artwork and building things in Photoshop where I can, without much drawing involved (this one was mostly gradient fills with texture brushes painted on top). Two more weeks. ~crosses his fingers~ I can handle this for two more weeks without killing anyone, right?

…don’t answer that.

3,000 comments contest update

51jw0wjsrrl_aa240_.jpgWe’re teetering on the edge of 2,500 comments, with just a few over 500 to go to hit that magic mark of 3,000 cumulative comments - and I’ve finally decided on a prize. I keep forgetting not everyone’s a gadget-geek like me, and I don’t have to pick out some nifty little bit of tech every time. So for this contest’s prize, the person who posts the 3,000th comment will receive a DVD copy of Velvet Goldmine, all shiny and brand-new.

Just to be fair to our international readers, I won’t be ordering the DVD until we see who wins, as there are region issues to consider and I wouldn’t want to ship someone an NTSC-only DVD if they live in a PAL region, and vice versa. (Granted, a lot of DVDs come with multiple region encoding now, but better to be on the safe side…) Once a winner is determined, I’ll just put in the order and have it shipped directly to your door.

I’m done, and out. Ciao.

    Good luck! Two weeks isn’t that bad, and it’ll give you something to look forward to!

  2. Anji Says:

    I love that movie!

  3. Rina Says:

    Well, only Lisa Frank-ish in terms of the color, I suppose. ~looks thoughtful~ (Oh yes, indeed, I had some Lisa Frank stuf, if you can believe it, stickers mostly.)

    interestingl, considering how often people as a whole kiss, the world would’ve ended ‘n’ times over.

  4. Kujo Hikaru Says:

    Never saw that movie, but reading IMDB…yeah, fits you. *grins, then flees from angry!Adri*

  5. amanda Says:

    ~is liking the cast list on imdb~

    ~considers netflixing it~

  6. Kaine Says:

    Ooh, am I reading the right one? Two people from Titus (One of my favourite movies, not to mention one of the few I’ve actually watched - twice!) and Eddie Izzard?
    That’s…quite sexy, actually. :P

    And you’ll be okay. I hope.
    And if you do get all homicidal…I’m glad for once that I live so far away? ^-^;
