	Another little warm up colour sketch here, this one inspired by the choppy-choppy haircut my girl had a while back. More tomorrow! Lorenzo!

	DFC! Now available as single issues all over the world!! Posted by Lorenzo at 11:13 am

	Hey folks!! Well, I'm excited to announce that you can now buy the DFC in single issue format anywhere in the world!! That's right, if you just want to try it out, and see if you like it, then you can order any of the back issues as a single purchase! I personally suggest that Monkey Nuts fans may want to go for issue 6, as it has a Monkey Nuts cover, but it's your choice! Anyway, there you have it, Monkey Nuts appears in every issue, so no matter which you chose, you'll still get some nuts! Go to the store HERE to pick and choose! This will also make this ole' adventure checklist I'm doing a bit more worthwhile, as you can be all like: "I want the episode with the Zombie Dancers!" and stuff! Ha-Zaa! Enjoy! Lorenzo!

	Monkey Nuts 2008 Tour! Next appearance: Sun 27th July @ The BFI! Posted by Lorenzo at 6:49 pm

	So, we had a great time at our recent DFC workshop with a host of enthusiastic young (and not so young) DFC fans last weekend at the Cartoon Museum in London. Bob and I were there with Zak Simmonds-Hurn (awesome artist and co-creator of upcoming DFC series The Strange Strange World of Weird, which is written by my bro) Sarah Mcintyre (Creator of the excellent DFC fan-favorite Vern and Lettuce) and Adam Murphy (another DFC contributer whose strip will appear in the comic in the future). Basically, it was an awesome day, and we had a real blast discussing ideas on how to come up with fun, exciting comics of your own, and generally chatting to all the children and signing copies of the DFC etc. And the best part is, Bob and I are doing another mini Monkey Nuts workshop later this month! As part of the BFI's Sunday Film Funday (and as part of the their comicbook movies season) we will be showing up with our box of comicy treats on Sunday 27th July, and it's going to be a great time for all you young DFC readers! Go to THE BFI SITE for contact details and directions etc. Right now, though, check out a selection of the piccies from the Comic Museum day, and here's a flyer for the next workshop! Phew! Lorenzo!

	Monkey Nuts - The Spike Island Prison... Posted by Lorenzo at 7:05 pm

	So, we had a great time contributing to the workshops in the DFC family Fun Day at the Cartoon Museum this weekend just gone, and I'll be posting up some pics of said event in a bit, but first... ...a piccie here of me scribbling away on another Monkey Nuts page, this one depicting some of the cell blocks at the Spike Island Prison on the Isla de Monstera, where our intrepid duo go about the business of crime fighting. At the top of the image you can see the way I build the picture, and how there's very little rhyme or reason to the way I approach it! Enjoy! More in a bit! Lorenzo!
