ASBOs and Comics in the Morning

This morning was brightened up by the arrival of Skellington, the latest print collection derived from the excellent web comic by John Allison, Scary-Go-Round.

The book is as delightful as one would expect from this talent guy. It’s a collection of strips from the web site, but with a pile of extras and some improvements to the originals that make it more a Director’s Cut DVD than anything else. However, I was just about to chuck the envelope away when I spotted a little sketch Mr Allison had done on the back, which I’ve reproduced above.

He has a knack of making you me feel very good about buying his stuff, and this is the sort of lovely little touch that creates that feel.

Nice work, sir.
