Character Profile: JUGHEAD.

Banes at 12:00AM, Aug. 6, 2015



I'm not sure who the first fictional character was that I became attached to. The Cat in the Hat? Superman? Jason Voorhees, maybe?

In any case, Jughead Jones was somewhere in that early group of beloved characters. I liked Archie, and envied his dating life with Betty and Veronica ...

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Aug. 5, 2015



Why, hello there, old chap. I say, I was just about to put the kettle on. Would you care for a spot of tea? How about a beautifully crafted Talbert Pipe?

In a world set up like the murder mystery board game, Clue, a pair of fine gentlemen dressed to ...

DEADLINES - (Banes talks to himself)

Banes at 12:00AM, July 30, 2015

"Cheating" as an Artist

Banes at 12:00AM, July 23, 2015
