Merry Christmas; or midwinter festival of your choice, should you happen to be someone who does not wish to celebrate Christmas. It’s no problem to me if you don’t want to celebrate it. I ‘celebrate’ Christmas as a time when family and friends get together to exchange gifts as a token of their appreciation for…Read more
News and commentaries
This is where commentaries on the comics will appear. It’s also the place for news posts, although these are likely to be rare.
The missing presents that ruined Christmas! Part three
Wow, this too ages. I’d have been done much earlier if it weren’t for the horrendous machinations of Arcadia, my evil computer that hates me doing any work. I swear, that machine gets more and more annoying as the days go on. It’s clear it wants a break over the Christmas period but until I’ve…Read more
A sketch
I’m having massive technical trouble right now so I don’t know if tomorrow’s comic will be completed in time. At the moment both Photoshop and the Gimp are crashing regularly so I’ve got hardly anything done. In the mean time, here is the sketchwork for tomorrow’s strip by way of showing that it does exist…Read more
Technical issues
There are a few slight problems, nothing too bad but irksome in their own ways, that mean the next strip will be slightly delayed. Expect it to still appear on Monday but unfortunately not at the scheduled 00:01 time for publication. I most humbly apologise but there are limits to what I can do.
Currency competition
I once asked Nob Mouse about currency. I was interested in how Blobland managed to survive without a true currency of any sort. ‘What’s a currency?’ asked Nob. ‘It sounds like some kind of raisin.’ ‘You’re thinking about currants, aren’t you?’ I said. ‘Yes. That’s right, isn’t it? You give one-another currants in exchange for…Read more
The Original Animated Life of Nob T. Mouse
I am flabbergasted, I really am. After more than ten years (11 years 8 months, I believe) of thinking these things were lost forever, one of the two animated episodes ofThe Life of Nob T. Mouse has surfaced in one place I never thought I’d find them: the place I checked first when looking for…Read more
About globes
‘I’ve been thinking,’ said Nob. ‘Oh?’ I asked. ‘About what?’ ‘About how globes are a silly idea for living on.’ He sipped his tea through a twirly straw, as was his usual choice. I took mine straight from the mug but he said the straw added a certain hint of something one can’t quite put…Read more
A visit to Café Nob
Some people think Nob Mouse is not real. To these people, I say: “Hahahahahaha! You poor, deluded souls.” I was talking to Nob about this just the other day, when I popped by Café Nob for one of my regular visits. It’s a nice place, I’d recommend it to anyone. Nob is a most courteous…Read more
Minor adjustment
This has to be the most complex, difficult to draw strip I’ve attempted yet. It took a long time to complete but I think it is worth it in the end. Suffice to say I need to cut back on the complexity of the images if I’m going to keep up producing series two strips….Read more
The simplest explanation
Sometimes people just don’t believe what’s right in front of them. This can be because either they don’t want to believe it, or they simply can’t believe it. Sometimes it could be a mixture of these, I suppose, but which is more common is something I can’t go into because I’m not as well versed…Read more
