So, who am I?

Well, I'm the guy responsible for Fyshbowl Comics, Cork's first webcomic (intermittently wasting your time since May 2004!) Aside from the horrific punditry of the main Fyshbowl strip, there's some other stuff of mine here.

As if that weren't damning enough, I'm also the guy behind the Irish Comic Challenge, a bi-monthly comic challenge for Irish cartoonists.

Aside from that, I read a fair amount of comics. Generally veering away from superheroes, though not always. The odd pervsuit adventure story can be fun, after all. I'm one of those annoying people who are allegedly killing the industry, (ie I tend to wait for the trade). Exceptions to this from the last year include Desolation Jones, Fell, Nextwave, the 7 Soldiers of Victory series, and Solo. Beyond that I like a seemingly orderless mixture of mainstream and independent stuff. If it's good, I look at it. (And try to steal ideas from it, which I then butcher and maim until they've been dumbed down enough to be incorporated into my webcomic, mwhahahaa!)

Since ComicSpace now allows people not on my friends list to leave me comments, please do so and let me know your thoughts. I'd particularly appreciate comments on the "Just Imagine Fyshbowl Comics Raping Your Childhood" series since that seems to be my most-viewed gallery...

Alright buoy? ...sorry. Couldn't resist tryin' the Cork slang.
Anyone with a link to Bob Byrne's site is alright in my books.

By the by, the comic challenge sounds really interesting. Never really did anything of the like but I'm a graphic designer and I sketch a bit so must give it a go.

Good stuff, the more the merrier! Just drop me an email at fyshbowlcomics @ gmail.com with your entry if you want in. Ideally I'd like to get as wide a range of styles on display as possible, so don't be shy ;)

Yep, it's still going :) Was originally just going to be something to distract me, but a few people from the Boards.ie comic forum seem to have taken a shine to the idea.
