A is for Apathy Monday, August 25, 2008

You might call it the alphabet for the apathetic, cool art from an angsty college student at Head Injury Theater.

• A is for Apathy, the Fire Burns Low
• B is for Burnout. Four years of this?
• C is for Computer. A thing of evil.
• D is for Day Job, Distraction and Depression.
• E is for Emo Drama. No one loves me.
• F is for Fans who scare me sometimes.
• G is Girls. Curse their curves.
• H is for Hysteria.
• I is for Inbox which scares me into seclusion.
• J is for Jared. I am my own enemy.
• K is for Krull. I am the chosen one.
• L is for Lazy.
• M is for Malignant; my tumor's name is Steve.
• N is for Neurosis. You'll never find me.
• O is for the Others. Their weird, but they have a great dental plan.
• P is for Prison (and a Pretty mouth).
• Q is for Quitting.
• R is for Routine. R is for Routine. R is for Routine...
• S is for Sex. Yes, please!
• T is for Thetans. The Scientologists are gonna get me.
• U is for Unemployment. "Spare some change?"
• V is for Vacation. Again, you'll never find me.
• W is for Warcraft. A lifetime lost to digital fish.
• X is for Xanax. And drinks make me forget.
• Y is for Ye Olde Website, why can't I be digital?
• Z is for Zombie Jesus. Five years ago I felt original.

His art reminds me a bit of one of my all-time favorite comic artists, Bill Sienkiewicz - perhaps it's the fact that he's not afraid to splatter the ink. Sienkiewicz's Elektra: Assassin blew my mind in high school. "Remember, America. Not wind like a watch, but Wind, like the air..." Perhaps a full post on Elektra: Assassin is in order...
