Edd Cross Comics's Notes

View: Full | Compact



I have always liked Usagi when he appeared the the original Turtles cartoons back in the 80's.  Since I have been in Canberra I have discovered the delights of Usagi's in his own comics, created by Stan Sakai, which are just fantastic!

I think on this day I must have been missing the times in the UK when I went to alt/metal clubs.  I have my music here, but I have not yet found any alt/metal venues.  Does anyone know if there are any alt/metal venues in Canberra?
Because we love possums (just incase you hadn't worked that out by now!):

When we first arrived we had no idea what these little furry creatures were that were looking back at us from their tree branches!

Now that we know what they are, we are continuously playing 'possum spotting'!!  How many possums in the picture below can you see hiding out in the trees?



On Friday night was our work Xmas BBQ.  I had designed and created the above image to go on our Christmas cards that we gave to all the volunteers that were there.
It was a fab evening getting to know everyone whilst having a good Ozzie BBQ!!  Thanks to my work buddies for organising such a great evening!
It was also encouraging to hear that some volunteers were impressed by my monthly Possum cartoon, and had even taken the time to look here on my blog - so a really BIG THANK YOU to you guys, it is really great to hear such positive feedback! 

So here is me!  I will use this as my blogger profile image, Facebook personal profile image, website image (when finally constructed) and anywhere else I am on the internet!

I had a moment of inspiration!  I needed a new image for my profile picture on my Facebook Page, and it came to me to put my face on a book - facebook!  So here it is!
So take a look at it on my page and become a fan of my page while you are there, if you are not already!




Being a member of Robocop Archive I wanted to update my avatar with them, to personalise my profile there.   The picture above is the full picture, and below is it edited to be my avatar!

So therefore it is me wearing Robocop's helmet! :-)






Being a Norwich City fan I usually travel to see them play once a month at Carrow Road while I was in the UK.  Now that I am in Oz, I am missing seeing them play, especailly as this season they are playing very well and it is a delight to see them winning games confidently again.
I therefore wanted to show this in cartoon form.  I have my canary (Norwich City are nicknamed the Canaries) perched on the edge of the branch, visiting my Australian animal cartoon characters (Cockaoo, Possum and Koala) with the delights of another win, hoping that they will continue to win for promotion.

And I thought I should add bit of yellow!:



I have been in Oz for a few months now and so it is about time I updated my website http://www.eddcrosscomics.co.uk/ to reflect where I am now.  I am just at the initial stages of it, so bear with me!  Meanwhile, keep continuing to check my blog http://eddcross.blogspot.com/ here for all updates.
