HD: two latest…

So I’m back from Crack!, but more about that later. Need more photos first…

There has been two new illustrations in HD since last time I posted anything:

Translation speech balloon:

They’re uncivilised. We don’t want that kind of things here.

Translation text on shirt:

REINSTATE THE DEATH PENALTY

HD, Piracy, Crack!, Ship to Gaza…

Yesterday, another illustration in Helsingborgs Dagblad (Världens Lyckligaste Folk by Lena Sundström):

Today: Chapter 2 och Piracy is Liberation 001: Information Wants to be Free begins:

Anyway. This is what’s going on this year, past and future, as far as I can see right now. I may skip some of it to take a night off, and I may end up in places I haven’t yet thought of.

Why of course, everyone is welcome in Sweden! Where did you say you’re coming from?

Eritrea? Oh no. You can come back when you’re from Holland…
