Just what do you do, in these mass media times, when you come across someone using your work for commercial means? It’s happening more and more now, with the Internet meaning that not only is it easier than ever to find something and steal it, it’s also far easier for the original artist to discover [...]

Corporate Skull returns

Wednesday, January 11, 2012

0 Comments

Jamie Smart brings back his spleen-rupturingly funny Corporate Skull webcomic, with issue four kicking off this week. More cynical slices into corporate culture, more swears, more lashings of the old ultra violence and personal abuse. oh yes, sign me up. I’ve been loving this since it launched, it’s rude, crude and doesn’t give a flying [...]

It’s inventive, foul-mouthed, full of toilet humour and plenty of the old ultra-violence (which just gets worse after our central character, a hapless office dweeb, has his face pulled off in a horrific photocopier accident). He describes the series thusly in his on-site [...]

Jamie Smart’s Corporate Skull – catch up time!

Sunday, May 8, 2011

Comments Off

I must say, Jamie Smart’s Corporate Skull is just the sort of webcomic I really like; it’s short, sweet and punchy. And funny, very, very funny. It’s not that I’m averse necessarily to long form webcomics, it’s just that in practise, I find I never have time to keep up with them. But Jamie’s Corporate [...]
