Bret Braddock’s Awkward Workplace Function
Having admitted I do the Bret Braddock Adventures comic strip, I’d like to invite you to the launch of the paper version:
Have you ever worked for a really lousy boss? Why not relive the experience?
The Bret Braddock Adventures is a weekly comic strip about a very badly managed company called Docklands Entertainment. They’re making a [...]
Here’s the Precinct stuff from the Opera House contest
I entered and was a finalist in the Sydney Opera House’s GRAPHIC animation competition! I’ve whacked the stuff I had to make for the contest on YouTube.
First, there were two video diaries:
My head looks larger and pinker in the second one, but the clip is shorter and has a better ending.
And here’s my complete entry. [...]
Opera House Follies
I spent the weekend in Sydney at the GRAPHIC comics/animation-related festival/event-series/thing! It was a very nice com/an-rel fest/ev-ser/thg which I certainly wouldn’t have gone to/been able to afford if I hadn’t been a finalist in their animation competition.
I did not win the animation competition! Dave Thomas, Canadian, won it. He’s a very nice chap, so [...]
Bret Braddock book launch coming to Melbourne Fringe
I Tweeted last week about not making it into Fringe in time, but thankfully my very lovely venue, the Bella Union (where we held the Comic Book Funny live shows), made it possible.
So now that the forms are in, I can tell you that we’ll launch a collection of my “Bret Braddock” comics at Bret [...]

Scatterbrain
Leadership
Lately I’d been thinking about all the work I’ve been doing toward getting The Precinct happening. It’s kept me very busy, but probably not as busy as I would be if were making the show itself. So I probably need to get used to this level of activity!
I’ve been wondering what kind of director I’d [...]
The Precinct: live on stage
A couple weeks ago we put on what we called a “VERY SPECIAL THEATRICAL EVENT” for a small audience at Glitch.
What this turned out to be was a live reading of one of our Precinct scripts — “Episode 6: Last Drinks”, otherwise known as “the ’80s flashback episode”, in which a young Sarge, Sandhurst and [...]
Precinct ep 06: Blam!
I stopped working on the animatic for the John Farnham episode because I’m doing something special this weekend: myself, Adam and two of our Precinct voice-maestros, Thomas Pullar and Adrian Calear, are going to perform a reading of the episode 6 script for a select audience at a secret location. SO MYSTERIOUS
We’ll be assisted by [...]
Me, on the radio
As I’m featured in the very nice Superheroes & Schlemiels exhibition currently at the Jewish Museum here in Melbourne, they’ve kindly given me the opportunity to appear on ABC 774 this Sunday with the Museum’s Helen Light to talk about… comic books and Jews, probably.
We’ll be on around 10:30am, speaking with Alan Brough, which will [...]
