The artist who does the cartoons for gapingvoid.com is really a great satirist and thinker outside the box. i think he lives and works in the UK. somebody should be signing him up right now to collect his drawings on the back of business cards, or that size, and make a bOOK of them for a global market. he is a genius. where is the book and when will come out? Publishers in UK and US, sign him up now. The man is on to something and he is original.

I think the book's nearly finished - soon to be published. And the cards are going onto limited edition t-shirts to be sold online soon. Obviously, the best person to tell you about this is Hugh himself. It's all on the blog.

If there's a Long Tail, then what comes in front is a Fat Arse. Pardon the vulgarity, but I think it's a good analogy, because a Fat Arse isn't as agile or adaptable as a long tail.
