Butter on My Passport

The first comic from Waegook in Hangook.

Waegook in Hangook

Hey guys and dolls, I have a new comic over on Facebook, you can find it here.

It will follow my non-adventures as a foreigner living and working in South Korea.

I might post some comics here occasionally, but if you want to see it then head over to the above link! Go now!

Onion Breath

This is my entry for the 2010 Comica/Jonathan Cape/Observer Graphic Short Story Prize. It follows the misadventures of Jinho, a rather malodorous Korean teenager.

I lived in South Korea for the entirety of 2009, teaching English as a foreign language. When I heard about the competition, it just made sense to me to use Korea in my comic. Korea is a fascinating country with a lot of history, yet it is not so well known in England (where I hail from), where it is perhaps most famous for its people eating dogs! (Which they do, by the way, but I've seen very few restaurants selling it.)

Anyway enough of my talking, I do hope you enjoy it. (Oh, make sure to click on each page and view them at full size.)

Hello

This says 'hello'

('안녕하세요'/ 'annyeong haseyo') in Korean.

Where Did All The Cowboys Go?

Hey there! You may be wondering where all the updates have gone. No? Oh, well..I'm gonna tell you anyway.

I've just reutrned to South Korea, where I'll be teaching English for a year while drawing on the side and getting strange looks from the locals. Right now I have no scanner, but I am working and I'll get some stuff up to you as soon as possible!

Hang in there!

Endings and Beginnings

Hey y'all, sorry I haven't updated in a while. Things have been busy, both with endings - the final episode of Lost (beautiful, emotional, if a little light on answers), and beginnings - I secured a job in a Korean elementary school, beginning in July!

But enough about me, back to what we're here for - the pictures.

Well This Is Just Embarrassing

Bloody chopsticks.
