First Day of MCM Expo

Hello, Picklepeople.
Firstly, we would like to say a huge thankyou to all of you that bought Pickleman at the Expo today - we really appreciate it. Secondly, we would like to say an even larger thankyou to all of you that then came back and said nice things to us about the comic - it helped to combat the fear that everyone thought it was rubbish.
We had a good day, and were not arrested, although we were told that there was to be "no leafleting".
Many people expressed admiration for our frog-patterned over-undergarments (Primark - surprisingly decent sometimes), and many others told us to "keep the change" which, again, we really do appreciate.
If you enjoyed Pickleman and would appreciate the second issue, then please drop us a line at picklecomics@hotmail.co.uk, or just leave a comment here. Also, if you really hated it or just think it could be better, then please leave a comment - your constructive criticism is important to us.
For those of you that were unable to buy a copy, or who were so taken by it that you want more copies of Pickleman for your friends and family, we will be at the Expo tomorrow as well, or you could alternatively just send us an email.
Once again, thankyou, and we hope to see you there tomorrow.

MCM Expo

Where?: London Expo
When?: This weekend
What?: Two morons walking up and down the queue, selling Pickleman:Genesis while wearing green lycra catsuits and red capes.
Why?: It is their only hope for a future. Either that, or the drugs are starting to take a serious effect.
What have I got to do with this?: You can come and support us, either by forking up the forty p. necessary for a copy of the comic, or just shout abuse at us. Whatever floats your boat. (Geek note: It's buoyancy.)

But please, do show your support, either through being there, or just by forcing your friends and family to - it might give your dull life a sense of meaninfulness, which has previously been lacking. Or it might just make you want to shoot something. See you there.

All apologies...

Yes, this is yet another uninteresting apologetic post, in which we explain exactly we have not or will not be posting for a while and then proceed to assume that this makes everything okay and that our fans are now content.
So, here goes.
Sorry for not posting for a while, we have been revising for exams. Or at least half-heartedly trying to, and occasionally panicking and revising studiously for a few days before returning to our usual habits.
Sorry that we won't be posting for a while, because we will be having exams.

However, something that may be cheering to you (although it may make you even more miserable) is that we will be at London MCM Expo this May. Oh yes. THAT London MCM Expo. Admittedly, we haven't got a stall inside - we intend to sell comics outside, while walking up and down the queue. We'll be wearing green lycra catsuits and red capes, so we should be hard to miss. Come along, and support your favourite comic book hero. (Or at least your favourite vegetable comic book hero. Not counting Asparagus Guy.)

Anyway, must dash - got to do some revision.

Wow.

We just checked out the Pickleman Facebook page, and, my oh my, we were mightily astounded. We have more than fifty fans. That is more people than the one of us who writes has ever spoken to.
We are intensely grateful to you for your devotion to Pickleman, and the social sacrifice you all made in clicking that button. And because we appreciate what you've all done, we'd like to give you a not-quite-as-good-as-some-of-their-other-comics comic. Enjoy.

Pickleman v.s. The Book of Faces

Pickleman is on Facebook. Oh yes. His face is in the book. Book his face now. Face. Bookface. Picklebookface. Man book face. Face book man. Pickle.


Just click this:

Do NOT Remove

See how hard we work for you? Another comic already, and it's only been a week. We do try.




P.S. If you're offended by this, please leave a comment. We'd like to laugh at your pain. On the other hand, if you're a billionaire in charge of a comic publishing empire who found this mildly amusing, please get in touch with us. We have a proposition for you.

More apologies, and a full body workout

Hello Picklepeople.
As usual, we have to apologize profusely for not having posted anything for ages - we're lazy, disorganised bums, and will try better in future.
So here's our latest strip. We hope you enjoy it.
