Peak Oil comic now available!


Fresh and hot off the presses, I've just completed my first comic book, which happens to be about Peak Oil. No coincidence, it took a subject I am passionate about to finally delve into this fantastic visual storytelling medium.

Centered on three characters, our short story (28 pages) describes George, a boy, who discovers an old dinosaur bone buried in his farm land. Upon digging it out, it transforms into an incredibly selfless and powerful helper that, in one eventful day, goes from tilling George's fields to building him an entire city. Needless to say, by the end of the day the "old bone" expires, and the boy is left having to face his actions and decide what to do. His tender mother, Naida, suffers consequences of this sudden manifestation. The all-knowing grandfather, Sol, gives them both words of wisdom and helps guide George through his now-altered life path.

If you'd like a copy of this book, send me an e-mail!
Cost is $5 Canadian, plus shipping as follows:
$2 within Canada, $3 to USA, $4 International.

Love the graphic design of the book, something for a posh coffee table somewhere west side britain... But if you look, it is more than a pretty face! You send to the old world by any chance?
