Hawaiian Dick previewed online

Pages: 1 5 replies

Hey, all...there are a couple of previews of my impending comic book, Hawaiian Dick, popping up. I think this book will appeal to the forum members. I'm already taking some heat from people afraid that I'll insult Hawaiian culture with the book, but they might be better served to wait until they READ THE BOOk to judge it. :)

Hey, that sounds like it's well worth picking up a copy!
I'm not a big fan of comics (Eightball is the only one I buy)
but the subject matter is top notch!

Sorry to hear about the couple of whiners attempting
to start a boycott. It's difficult to understand how so many people
seem to think that movies, books and art are supposed to be based
on some sort of absolute truth. A work of fiction is just that!

Coming from Oxford, I could winge about Inspector Morse creating
a false impression of Oxford. "No real police inspector would spend so
much time amongst the University buildings! The disproportionate number
of murders will lead people to believe that if they visit Oxford, they will
be strangled by an insane professor! Blah blah blah."
The reality is it's a fictional character based in a city seen through tourists
eyes. Big deal. If it was non-fiction, the focus would be a weary policeman investigating
the odd person getting a kicking outside a nightclub. Not much fun.

Anyway, this 'blame culture' is pretty tiresome. Like you stated, if they don't like
it they should create their own personal view. Even the village idiot could walk
around taking photos with a disposable camera if they want 'realism'.

Isn't that the premise for the next U.K. reality programme?

I haven't read a comic book since those EC reprints became so hard to find but this looks great! I'm going to have to start haunting the comic book shops again looking for this title!!

Hey, wait a minute, that looks like me with short, dark hair! And no gut! Yeah, he has a butt and he is a little more physically fit...a little.
But definately MY shirt and pants, oh yes, those are mine!

Where did I put that Copyright law book and my Prepaid Legal card?
