Lafflin has recently renamed his weekly comic strip Stick Man-ia. It's genius. I've photographed almost every one but the most recent two, which is a shame, because each one is better than the last. The punchlines are perfect, and the facial expressions and body language of those simple stick fingures is just absolute genius.
Here is the first comic he gave me, Pacman, which you have probably seen before:
And here is Missile-crisis:
And ohhh, here is Dogs:
The comic after this was a drawing of 'Super Piece of Bread' throwing fire at a bread bandit, saying "Stop Theif youre Toast!" Only, Lafflin came with me to staple it to the Board, so he actually saw me casually take a camera out of my locker and photograph his drawing like it was the most normal thing in the world...
Doesn't it just make you smile? In a really messed up kind of way? If anyone has a job offer for this kid, let me know. Until then I will be quietly organizing a fan club no one will ever join. Goodbye lovelies.
