SILENCE! Inside The Wankers’ Studio
November 10th, 2021
Welcome to a very special SILENCE! in which two masters of the craft sit down in conversation with each other. Gary Lactus and The Beast Must Die have somehow managed to secure Dan White and Fraser Geesin for an in-depth chat about their latest comics.
Terminus is White’s collection of his acclaimed weekly cartoon for Mindless Ones in glorious hardback form.
Purple Hate Balloon floats into view as Geesin collaborates successfully with animator Laurie Rowan.
Cindy and Biscuit: Year One takes us back in time to Cindy’s first battles with all things monstrous in a beautiful, un-dislikeable tabloid newspaper format.
The two legendary geniuses will be debuting these life-changing, earth-shattering, germ-killing comics at Thought Bubble on the 13th and 14th of November 2021, on tables 27B-28 Mindless Ones And SILENCE! And Pals in the Comixology Originals Hall. Their comics will be available from their websites once this crazy weekend is over.

SONG LYRICS HERE
Look, do you want a blurb or a podcast? You can’t have both.
Gary Lactus and The Beast Must Die are back together. It’s a sad occasion as comedian and SILENCE! contributor, Phil Jerrod has passed away. This month’s Patreon money plus extra will be going to Sarcoma UK. Perhaps you’d consider sponsoring Julie Oliver and Phil Lucas as they run in his memory.
https://justgiving.com/team/teamjerrodtoo
Anyway, there’s other stuff here. Gary tells you about his absence, The Beast recommends the One Day In America documentary and both of them decide to maybe think about getting ready for Thought Bubble. There’s a bit of Neighbours chat in there too, sadly and inevitably.
Come with us to Reviewniverse, with Kane & Able, Superman and The Authority, God Of Tremors, The Extreme Self and The Age Of Earthquakes by Douglas Coupland and Room For Love of course.
Stop! Look! Listen!
