NEW FURY

The Daily Mail is FURIOUS that JEREMY CORBYN didn’t come round my house and stop me drawing this anti-army recruitment comic back in 2013, the same comic that has the full SUPPORT of VETERANS for Peace UK. Even worse, I wrote SICK TWEETS about how Corbyn is GOOD in the PAST WEEK. Scientific proof, if science were even real, that CORBYN HATES TROOPS. The Sun got hold of it too. I’ve posted a screen grab below as well as the text from the Mail article if you’d rather not give them ad revenue. Daily Mail commenters occasionally put the hatred to one side to marvel instead at the nature of time and existence.

JOIN THE ARMY REPRINT

I recently had my ‘Join the Army‘ comic reprinted and it looks even better than the first run. I’ve uploaded the Iraq Bayeux Tapestry for those who haven’t yet seen it, which covers the outside of the comic. The book (costs: £7/£10) available to buy direct here. 10% of every sale goes to Veterans for Peace UK. Speaking of which, I was at the Veterans for Peace UK Annual Conference on Saturday and they had a panel of former IRA volunteers and ex-British Army soldiers talking about their previous work trying to kill each other and their current work with each other combating sectarianism and healing divisions in Northern Ireland. This is what a peace process looks like. It was powerful stuff. The VfP UK conference just gets better every year, I seriously recommend you come to the public event next November if you’re at all interested in this type of thing. I’ve been working with Veterans for Peace UK and the director Price James on an upcoming short film based on my Action Man: Battlefield Casualties. It’s going to be something else. I can’t wait. #Army #Military

PATRIOTIC PRINTER PROBLEM

The printers have refused to print my anti-army comic “having seen the content of your artwork”. This leaves me in a bit of a situation as they were the only printers I’ve been able to find who can print and fold an A5 20 page concertina booklet. I’m currently looking at French printers, as they’re less likely to refuse a job on the grounds that it insults the British Army. It is of course utterly maddening that a printer would refuse to print something they disagree with politically, but obviously I understand that legally and commercially they have right to decline whichever job they like. I do think however that this incident says something about the way people regard the army as an almost holy institution and therefore what I’m doing as a kind of blasphemy. For now I’ve decided to put back the launch of the comic until the 26th of September. Hopefully I’ll be able to sort something soon even if I have to fold each comic by hand. If you happen to know a large format printer that might be able to help me on this please email me: darren@spellingmistakescostlives.com or leave a message in the comments. Thanks. #Military #BeTheMeat

SHAPE SHIFTING LIZARD SKIN CREAM

Mark Tolson and I developed this Shape Shifting Lizard Skin Cream for our Mystic Mark Etsy shop. From the description: Shapeshifting from lizard to human form is great for controlling Earth so you can mine gold to save your dying homeworld, but it’s not so great for your skin. When you’re juggling appointments and global depopulation deadlines, you don’t have time for an exhaustive skincare regime, especially after you’ve been up all night sodomising infants on a blood-soaked altar. That’s why there’s new Hypoallergenic Shapeshifting Lizard Skin Cream, for the hard-working reptilian overlord who wants to crush the human race AND look great. Revitalise dry cracked scales with the nutrifying formula, penetrating your watertight, abrasive epidermis with vitamin-enriched micro-molecules. Never again spend hours removing crusty nodules from your armoured eyelids or sandblasting your segmented underbelly. Instead, spend your life-cycle on the things that really matter to you: eating babies, manipulating financial markets and basking on rocks in the warm glow of Earth’s home star. Whichever form you’ve taken, simply lather the cream onto tough lizard scales or weak and thin human tissue. The vitamin E rich formula gets to work fast, leaving your external membrane hard, reinforced and radiant. Start each day with that “just-shed-skin” feeling!
