Barilla doesn't want my money

* Link

Now, I don't have much time to draw but this needed to leave my system. I mean, would you believe your spaghetti could be evil sexist homophobes (or well, made by such)? Obviously, pasta-maker Barilla doesn't want our money... But that's OK. It's not like they have a monopole on pasta as far as I know.
Please don't support a homophobe company who also likes to emphasize that women have "their place" (behind a stove, cooking pasta for a family. Not a gay one though!). Buy your pasta elsewhere - and better even: let them know.

Early sketches

Aaarghksfffk. Too little time for proper drawings. But here's some rough (very early stage) S-Bahn sketches of... a thing. A comic collaboration thing I'm working on with no less than my just as talented as sweet sister...

Personal space

Brief intermezzo before continuing my little All-Praise-Korea series.

(Sorry, Mum, it's true - but I do love you very much!)

Sharing makgeolli (and other things)

Makgeolli is the best! This shit is *peeeep* delicious! I'm kinda glad we don't have it here - probably saved me from becoming an alcoholic.
I'm also really into that general "culture of sharing" in Korea. It's not only a really nice thing to do. You also get to taste a lot more different things. :)

Thank you, Blogger, for finally letting me post this *#?!^xgrarrrgh.

Hungry foxes, books and hanok

I fell crazy in love with 한옥 (hanok). They are so pretty! When I'm all grown up, one day, I'll live in one and offer Korean teas and read 만화 all day.

PS: Yes. I bought a children's book about a fox who likes to eat books and gets in trouble for it. Still trying to decipher it bit by bit. I'm glad it has lots of pictures.

One, two, four - GO, brain!

There you go. Glad I can count to three. Ahem. I think drawing is successfully killing my left brain hemisphere. Oh well. I want to drink 수정과 everyday. It's got cinnamon and persimmon and ginger - aaaall the good stuff!

한국을 사랑해요

I just recently got back from two fantastic weeks in South Korea. You might have to expect some more comics about my impressions...

On a sidenote: Mayyybe, one fine day, I will actually use proper materials and not have to confront you with those crappy scans of doodles in flimsy cheap notebooks (sorry!).

Google forgot me (I hope)

Many of you have noticed that this blog has been set to "private" for quite a while now. I do not want to get too elaborate here but due to some sort of unfortunate accident Google found out about my full "real-life" name. This caused me a lot of sweat and made me think about what I want to be public about myself, whether I should start a new blog and/or "self-censor" my comics a bit more... I know that - even though I love to be very open with my comics and pictures - I'm somehow not so comfortable with the thought of my boss reading that I waxed my pussy for a BDSM party.
To cut a long story short, the wonderful people at femgeeks provided me with a lot of helpful information and also with kind, consoling words. In the end, a miracle happened and I actually found what linked my name to my blog and was able to remedy that connection... and after a while Google forgot about that link (I hope foreverandever).
So, yay! E*phi=log will be back! Thanks again to my femgeeky heroines (and sorry if I wasn't able to reply to every single one of you! You're in my heart and your help is so much appreciated!!)
