Anything with "holy tits" in it wins automatic approval, as it's one of my three most commonly-used phrases, and I'm totally stealing "Christ in tights" for similar use.
Was expecting an ironic final line from the "I wish I was dead" kid, but nothing springs to mind that isn't obvious and terrible. Well in, that man.

That’s much more like it. It feels suited to the longer strip. If you’re gonna go with more lifelike characters and natural dialogue, they need that bit more time to actually tell a story, I reckon.
Fuck of a lot of work though. I certainly couldn’t be arsed if it were me.

Thanks very mmmuuuEEEAAAUUUGHHHHH!!!! 
Lusi was always designed for longer strips - the 4-pager happened because I was bored. The plan now is to get it printed up cheap n cheerful and leave it in pubs, shops etc etc.
Thanks for noticing Heartwarming Moment™ and Repeat Until Funny™. I was watching Spaced at the time.

On a site navigation note - if I hadn't mentioned the Origins strip would you have found it? Am I better off using the Comics page as the splash page so people know there's more than one or is it pretty obvious? | |

Love the art, less of the boardie stuff, more of that sweet, sweet early-90s Deadline influence.
Think Philip bond meets Glyn Dillon. | |

Someone who owns roughly 5k of skateboarding gear and can't actually skate.
Slightly different from skaters. | |
