Post #4 - A Collection Of Doodles

 

Post of Random Crap #3 - about Blot Issue Three, David Lynch, other works of art...

November the 4th 2025; Tuesday. My last post in this blog was October the 8th 2024, another Tuesday. Before that it was a Monday in 2020. Keeping the pattern I should've opted for a Wednesday in 2028 to make my third post here-!
Blot Issue Three, the third issue of my annually released 123 page comic series, has 'landed'- a few weeks ago to split rabbits. And it's dedicated to the late, great David Lynch, an enormous inspiration to me. Here is the cover to the third issue of Blot itself-:

Hang on a minute- that's too small. I'll make it larger. 

Anyway- why are you looking at this on a screen-? It looks better printed off. That way you haven't got all the added crap around it existing on the internuts such as idiotic blipverts trying to hypnotise you into accepting a digital prison by the day; "buy the latest Nintendobox Sixty Five and immerse yourself into the Metacurse; you will be able to scroll with your tongue now on the brand spanking new Lingua-Pad Twenty Five; hey you-yes you-you are a complete and utter stooge if you do not own the very latest silicon packed J-Phone Twenty Five Zillion; plants crave electrolytes.."

Here is a link to buy this 123 page comic should you choose to do so. It can be experienced as a stand alone comic, not relying on knowledge from Issues One and Two by the way. Issue Three delivers a different experience to the previous issues of Blot as it is the first comic of mine where I have taken my time more and combined my inkwork with pencil, appearing on the vast majority of the pages. Anyway, here is the link I wrote about a few sentences ago, and I have taken the time to type every single letter and number by hand for this link here instead of copy and paste cheating (note: I love to write a good fiction) -:

Some samples from Blot the Third which you can look at but do not read the last boxes until you buy the book because they're a plot spoiler, and I can't be arsed to censor the last boxes-:

That's my signature in the right hand corner; SRBhs; this stands for Samwise Raven Backhorse, a pseudonym for my real name. 

Here's another wee sample-:

Sorry, I couldn't help myself there-! Being sensible now- here is a page featuring two of my favourite characters, Longface and Mr Literally-:

And here's a page drawn from the perspective of my character Mister Mad, a sample from a comic by him appearing within the comic too; a comic within a comic-:

And as a bonus, here's a second Mister Mad page for your glazzies-:

The above is also 1 of 26 'Gide' pages drawn by this character; there is a page for every letter of the alphabet so this one was for the letter 'K'.

And here's another cartoon, specifically a doodle page-:

And now, due to the fascistic 'nature' of this digital internuts, I have found myself unable to provide this blog with more samples from the comic I wanted to include, probably due to some of the language contained within, and the nanny mollycoddled Big Bother state clearly wants to keep you all wearing nappies and be surrounded by bubblewrap, protecting your eyes from the combinations of symbols in certain orders in case it causes you to hurl up the last thing you ate. Some words have managed to sneak past the eye of Mordor on here, but the Gurgle has clearly picked up words such as *gosh*- the 'S' word- oh MY. How can we have this-!? "Look, there's another fourteen year old who's leapt in front of a scooter because he read the 'S' word.." It's people like me who really ought to be deeply ashamed for contributing towards adding what is pure filth into this world. So don't buy this comic; it'll do you a world of good to not have it in your life. Sorry to have wasted your time. Over and out.

And one other thing, here's an added bonus of an improvised stop motion I made on the evening of Oct 1st in a woodland in North Devon, England, featuring my china doll Heidi-:

And here's another stop motion animation I created on Hallowe'en-:
