The Vampire's Ball

Zamo says:

Well, the monkey who draws my comic also does a radio show or podcast or something like that. Even though she fails to heed my requests for The Iguanas, I guess she plays some OK stuff too.

The Vampire's Ball Playlist for April 25th, 2009

You can download the show on iTunes.

Now, to get her to draw more comics too...

Smarter than the Average Croc

So, I'm watching "Killer Crocs of Uganda" on the Knowledge Network (local TV that's supposed to be educational).

Zamo would probably describe it as the "feel-good drama of the season."

Anyway, I had to laugh my ass off when I saw one scene. The guys are out at night tagging crocs. They've set a snare trap, and they've tagged the croc and let him go.

As you might imagine, he's not a happy camper at this point.

The croc immediately jumps into the supply boat. This is an inflatable with food, camera gear, and... oh, yeah: a stash of AK47s.

And people think reptiles are stupid.

"Go ahead, punks: Make my day!"

Zamo's Remix

Well, finally got a new Zamo posted: Zamo's Remix

Like Zamo, I'm working on a remix of Nine Inch Nails' "The Hand That Feeds," but I'm not booting anyone off the computer to do so.

Paleoconservative

Howdy folks,

Zamo here.

After getting out the metal meat mallet to take out my frustration on the cartoonist's shins, I have a new cartoon posted again. Finally! I mean, I like to nap and strike, but said cartoonist was wide awake and yet she dared to work on - get this! - school projects and personal work instead of my comic.

I think perhaps we have come to some sort of understanding whereby my comic might be on a goofy schedule through April but it gets posted anyway.

Anyway... this week I get into a political discussion with Granma about what consitutes "old-time traditional values." Read it or else:

Zamo the Destroyer: Paleoconservative

Signed your Supreme World Leader, Zamo the Destroyer.

PS: It's cold and cloudy here in Vancouver. Some of you aren't doing your part for global warming yet. C'mon folks! Buy a Hummer and drive it lots!

Merry Igmas to all!

Merry Igmas!

As always, Zamo hogs all the space. The cartoonist can just get her own damn cartoon if she wants to spread any holiday greetings of her own.

Weird...

So, I was looking at my analytics stuff for the main Zamo the Destroyer site and saw this:



Uh, was that a joke, or are there really people who type "cool cults to join" into Google? And if there really are such people, is it because they previously saw my site and remember the page where Zamo's trying to recruit into her cult and that's why they typed it that way, or is it that they're really sitting there thinking, "y'know, I should join a cult. That would be a fun thing to do with my weekends... maybe shave my head, hang out at airports, give up my life savings..."

Three times over the last month.

Oh well, hits are hits, I guess. Hope they enjoyed the comics either way.

I await emails on what particular shade of lime green is the correct one to dye one's mandatory spiky green mohawk and whether Zamo prefers the flowing green robes be made of a high-quality silk fabric or if cheap and crappy polyester will suffice.

Zamo's Lament

Yup, Zamo's pissed that there wasn't a comic last week. And she gives you a bit of my excuse as to why (the little bit she might have accidentally listened to while doing what most iguanas would do in such a situation: shunning the offending human).

Whatsisface is actually Dave "Rave" Ogilvie, but I guess if anyone cared to Google the Nearly Famous Music Festival mentioned on my t-shirt in the comic and look at their MySpace page blog about workshops they would figure that one out for themselves. I also attended Jeff Dawson's seminar and both were quite informative and fun.

So, that would mean "Nude Photo Guy" is Nivek Ogre from Skinny Puppy and ohGr. And it's true: I do have a nude photo of him as my laptop's primary desktop image (which is quickly swapped out for a plain black background when I have to hook my laptop up to the projector to present something in one of my classes.)

Of course, Zamo calls him whatsisface because she wasn't listening, but the reality is I probably listen to more of Rave's work than Ogre's.

And yeah, I realize there's a bit of a continuity issue where last month Zamo was stoked about seeing Ogre in concert and this week Zamo refers to him as just "Nude Photo Guy" as if she's never heard of him - oh well. Such is the iguanid attention span.

Zamo's Lament

In news that might appease Zamo, I already have tomorrow's comic drawn and ready to go. And I have the script for next week's ready, too.
