NEWS: The American Dream is no longer being serialised here.

Instead, we are working on a new and improved version of the book, with artwork lusciously drawn and painted by one of my favourite artists, Karl Stevens. I’m very excited about this collaboration; I’ve been following Karl’s work since the 1990s and absolutely love his previous books The Lodger and Guilty, and his regular strip in the Boston Phoenix (currently known as ‘Failure’).

I’ll update this post as soon as there’s more news, but for now here’s a sample of Karl’s work-in-progress on the American Dream.

And if you still really want to see the (discontinued) earlier version, click here for page one.

I wrote this page about a hundred times, and I’m still not convinced I’ve got it right. So there’s a chance I’ll change it one more time when the whole thing is finished (ditto with other pages, of course)…]]> Comic

Sorry for the long delay – I’ve been rather busy, and out of town. This month is going to be equally busy, but I’m hoping it won’t impact on the site so much.

I drew this page several times, and finally decided to just post this version – better to keep it going, imperfect or not…

At least something is actually happening now. Next page even includes dialogue!
