Silent Army: Missing in Action?



The main Silent Army Site is down, hopfully to return soon.

And I shouldn’t forget to mention my own slack ass – didn’t I promise you another comic this week? Getting my ass in gear, and hope to in future keep my weekly deadline. More details (and lame excuses) to follow.

Weekly Comic

Weekly Comic

Trying out something new: a weekly comic strip, translated into as many languages as I can muster. (Especially including Khmer, since I live in Cambodia after all.) Thanks especially to web comics pioneer Jesse Reklaw for technical tips.

The spark for this one came from ‘the voice’ (no, not John Farnham) – Ken Nordine, ‘friend to doormen’. Radio, while not a visual medium, encourages (even forces) you to develop your visual imagination. Props to Ken Nordine and Joe Frank .

Also new this week: blog from Plastic Planet’s Che Gilson,



interview with Amber Carvan.
