Comment: Thanks Ben, your looking glass zine was well worth the wait. I adore the creepy cute postcards and the button you tossed in as well. I'm glad you're back, you've been sorely missed.

Comment: Zines like this make me stoked that i organized this swap. great envelope, newsprint, and actual ideas culled from a living head rather than just burping up swill from the web. please join in the next swap again and again.
Response: Working on my next one but will probably take some more time making it, I'm trying out some new printing methods and might be doing some silkscreening in it so it's gonna be rad.

Comment: I got your zine a few days ago already, thank you. I like your drawing style, and esp. the "would you like to buy a soul?" page is thought provoking. ..and probably the most interesting and disturbing envelope of all time, spent a while checking it out! (your profile is also maybe the most intriguing i've seen here.)
Response: Thanks alot! I'm not sure which envelope you got but I have a good guess. haha. Was it the oil color guy? The post office worker was slightly offended by it and I wasn't sure if they would send it hah.

wanna do a one-on-one private swap sometime?

queenelisheba on Aug 2, 2010:

I applaud you for causing such a stir here on SB! I am all for those individuals who do what they want and are true to themselves!! I rather enjoy people and things that make me think outside the box!!

angeldiva on Jul 31, 2010:

Oh yeah, and I almost forgot to add, 25 is not middle aged!!! Come on man, you're making me feel old now and I'm only 32......ugh, see now that sounds old when I say it since you called yourself middle aged LOL

angeldiva on Jul 31, 2010:

Hi! I sent a request to join your group, I saw your artwork you posted on that thread in the forums and it's really cool! It reminds me of something but I can't think of what, but I really like it :D I'm so curious also to see the comic you made that was being discussed in the forums but I bet you've heard that alot lately anyhow :P Well I hope I'll be accepted to your group and look forward to seeing what kind of group swaps will take place there....although I have to tell you now that any of them that involve hand drawing I will not be able to join because I am pretty horrible at drawing/sketching etc... LOL

ChelseaLake on Jul 30, 2010:

woo! i'm definitely not a satanist, but if i get accepted, i think it'll be loads of fun. i love horror...maybe i'm a little morbid BWAHAHAHA! but i like kawaii too...i'm a mess.

Lieve on Jul 30, 2010:

I understand wunderland, it's okay :-) I applied for the group anyway, even if I'm not a satanist either.

wunderland on Jul 29, 2010:

Oh, the name doesn't offend me. I'm just turned off by certain strong words: I rarely to never say words like hate and stupid, and I find the word Satanic has a strong negativity to it as well ... just for me anyway, everyone else can love it all to pieces. I just don't want to see the words Satanic Swaps on my profile every time I log in. But like I said below, I think it's great that @gesh is ambitious enough to start such an interesting group.

Lieve on Jul 29, 2010:

I agree with wunderland tough, I'm not a satanist myself (but I'm not offended by the name lol ;-))

wunderland on Jul 29, 2010:

Hmm, I'm intrigued with your new swap group. I like the idea of mature, adult themed alternative swaps ... but I'm kind of turned off by the group name: Satanic Swaps. Meh, to each his own I guess. Good luck with your group and happy swapping, and thumbs up from a fellow Vincent Price fan.

zurdoswifey on Jul 29, 2010:

Kudos for standing up for yourself and your art in the forums...
