Today's upload is the song I'm Thinking of You Now (written in Malmö, Sweden in 1968 as a pompous 5-minute demonstration of "how-easy-it-is-to-write-a-song"). I don't think I've played it since then, but hey, it must be great if it's from the '60s, right?

I used to write lots of songs: it was easy. Then, it suddenly wasn't--and 10 years have slipped by, busy with other stuff. But even farther back in time, Marianne and I got married on September 27th, 1986, and at our recent "Silver Wedding Anniversary" party she gave a very flattering speech about her husband of 25 years (me), so I was expected to respond somehow. Fortunately, I had somehow managed to compose a new song dedicated to her and that saved the day. I delivered an acoustic performance at the party, but have since recorded a ministudio version of Every Time I See You. And yes, it's even got Lyrics

I've been busy with music, mostly concerning the 13 songs connected to the AOOE novel (So Long, Babylon, Mean To Me-- and just finished Sasquatch Moon), but also other original songs written long ago (like Nukes and Winter With Me) finally recorded and posted here as MP3s. Been posting them regularly and will continue to do so-- it'll be a while before I run out of material.

The newly posted songs can be found at the top of the list on the MP3 Audio Files page.

Just posted an illustrated children's book that Marianne and I created together a few years ago. den Magiske Tommelfinger. Yes, it's in Danish-- which is no problem for our local friends-- but included is a synopsis in English for everyone else.

After most of a year ignoring my website because of writing AOOE, I've recently been quite diligent about updating and spell-checking old texts, posting new mp3's of songs and writing new stories. Today I've added another chapter (CELEBRITY) to the Copies story-series found under Tales.

I've also posted 8 new MP3s in the Songbook, found at the top of the list.

I've just reposted all of my old comic books which had been temporarily taken off this website because of a promotional project for a planned reissue of ARMAGEDDONQUEST, check out COMIX.

I also wrote several short stories to be included in those new issues, but now we're going in a different direction, so I'm posting them here now; to be found in AQ Stories, the last 5 stories listed. I've just finished coloring all the illustrations for the 4-part "Ghost's Story", so I can finally present them to the world.

Wow, has it really been a year since I last posted a major update for this web site? Well, that's because I've been obsessively working on one project for most of that year, everything else fell by the wayside. You wouldn't believe how many hours--or years--I have invested into this novel, ADAM OUT OF EDEN and here it is at last.

I wrote the first draft in 1978, started rewriting it in the 90's and have just finished it after 5 months of virtually non-stop typing. A computer crash didn't help much. God, I hope I'm really done with it! I mean, except for small tweaks, adjustments, error fixes...

Posted this year's Santa E-Card on the Logo Page, so that should make your Christmas Very Merry Indeed! Also updated the AQ info page, concerning the web-comic site and new issues of reprints being made available. Also a first glimpse of how the AQ mythology is being expanded with EXCITING (I guess) NEW MATERIAL.

It must seem as if I've been ignoring this Home Page for a while, but actually I've been busy working on stuff that will end up here. However, my latest time-consuming project has been setting up a completely different web site in cahoots with Dave Baxter, a guy who really believes in WEB COMICS:
www.armageddonquest.com

Just posted a new short-story in the AQ Tales section, MIDSUMMER KNIGHT, featuring one of Tazio's old enemies, a Dark Templar, now commanded to enforcing law instead of doing evil-- he hates it, but does it well anyway.

Updated my section on København, which was several years too far out of date, and replaced the tiny gritty modem-catering .gifs with some newer- bigger- better recently taken digital .jpgs.

A new AQ text story, a letter from Jytte to Tazio on his 13th birthday, while he's off wandering the world as a sexless superhero and she's becoming initiated into The Angels. Jytte's Letter can be found in the AQ Tales section.

Here's the upgrade of my AQ Movie Script, posted long ago but now polished up with a prettier font and colored illustrations. Maybe some famous film director will read it now.

Just posted Stress in the Slammer, a little "infotainment" brochure I once drew for prison guards, back when I was one myself.

As you can see, I haven't been noting any additions I've made on this home page over the last six months, mostly because it's just been one picture at a time, no big projects. But I've been diligent, honest I have... occasionally.

I've been updating my Cartoon Gallery, rescanning and polishing drawings, coloring them, and finally posted the whole thing today. Not that I'm ever really finished with it, I'll be coloring more of the b&w pictures as I go along.

Hey, it's the Summer Solstice today! It's still early in the morning here in Copenhagen, 06:45, so I just realized that as I wrote the date. I've got a few minutes before I go off to work, so I thought I'd note that I've just posted Demigod , the sequel to the graphic novel AotC mentioned below, making it an even Bigger Comic Book. Just not for kids. All of this and more to be found in the "Bigger Better New Improved Comix Section".

Scrounging around in my old backlog of comix I rediscovered Agents of the Chalice, a 200-page graphic novel I had written 1981, but never got around to cleaning up enough to publish. It's about an Angel and a Devil who team up as hit-men for God. I'd been considering doing a movie script of it, but for now I'll post the original comic book as is.

I've just posted Artificial Love, a science fiction story I started in 2004, but didn't know how to finish and just sort of forgot on my hard disk until a week ago. Takes place on a Star Station, involving a cop and a sexy pleasure robiot. Suddenly it all jelled, I wrote the rest of it, whipped out an illustration, and
here it is.

Updated my Armageddonquest pages at last: rewriting out-of-date text, replacing the small gritty old Amiga .gifs with bigger better shiny new .jpgs, added new pictures, coloring some of them, putting everything onto .html pages for better presentation and navigation links. It's still pretty much the same AQ Showcase it was before, but looking and working better, more professional. Anyway, I'm happier with it now. Still adjusting minor details, coloring a few more of the b&w pages, etc, but that's a constantly ongoing process.

Posted lots of my old comix, hundreds of pages, in fact. All of the Prison Comix are here now, Guard Comix, The Prison and the Planet, still in black & white, wayyyy too many pages to color. That was driven home to me when I decided to post Mother Instinct, a 12-page AQ teaser I had drawn as a warmup to the publication of the Armageddonquest Trilogy. I must have spent a month of evenings coloring those 12 pages-- they look good, I'm quite happy with them-- but what a lot of tiny-detail work it took! All of this cornucopia can be found in the Comix section of this very website.

Having had some time off my everyday job, I foolishly used it to polish and color old comix I drew years ago, having just finished the set of 3 SNAIL TALES shorts, and so here they are. They replace the old b&w Nukemare pages I had originally posted, being a sparkling color upgrade of that story and the other 2 chapters never before presented. But Man, coloring is a lot of work, I was just about falling asleep in front of the computer night after night.

I've just posted SLAMMER COMIX, one of my old (1982) 3R Cosmix stories. It's 48 pages, B/W, PG-rated, and drawn in a prison (I was a guard, not a con, all right?) It happens to be the prequel to AQ, introducing the character of Immanuel, 17th incarnation of Christ. You can find it in the Comix pages, or you can click RIGHT HERE.

I know it's been a while between updates, so it may seem as if I've forgotten my poor old home page, but actually I've been coloring some of my old comic art with Photoshop, which simply takes a lot of time. I've just finished the new color version of Cosmikids. Before that I polished up my only attempt at a Superman story, written years ago but never before posted. I also upgraded my oh- so- famous ATR&E Songbook to sparkling technicolor last summer without mentioning it here. All this and more can be found in the Comix section.

One of my wife's hobbies is making hand-painted wooden jigsaw puzzles, and sometimes I help as guest artist. So here's a little illustrated chronicle about Marianne's Puzzles.

Just posted a new story, the first in a long time. REPLAYERS is a time-twister adventure about a super-agent whose secret is that he can undo events by manipulating time, which is great until he comes up against an opponent who can do the same back at him.

At this moment the Moslem World is in uproar over the 12 Mohammed cartoons published in Denmark. We live in Copenhagen, so we're in the eye of the storm. Here's a newsletter I wrote to family and friends about our perceptions of it all. Letter from Denmark under siege

I'm still ignoring this web site for a while, busy doing other stuff. Just started a new comic book, but am nowhere near ready to post a presentation of it online yet. But I did post a little drawing I did while trying to come up with something for Marianne's birthday invitation. It's called Yoga Diva and is found in the Comix section. That's about it for now.

Merry Christmas, once again. As you can see by this Updates Page, I haven't been paying much attention to this web site for a while, been busy with other projects-- which will end up here, but I have to finish them first. But I thought I'd better post this year's Santa E-Card for Christmas, found on the logo page, as well as along with all the earlier E-Cards in the Comix section. Happy New Year too, by the way.

We just spent a few days in Berlin, for the 3rd time in 38 years. It's funny, but the place keeps changing. Wonder why that is? Anyway, you can share the ride with us by checking out BERLIN 2004.

That's right, it's Christmas Day. So I've posted this year's Christmas Card in the Comix section.

Scanning everything I can find, I came upon that comic book I once packaged with my musical demo tape -- sort of a "paper video", y'know -- and it can now be found in the Comix section, entitled Adventure, Travel & Romance, Etc.

Now that I've finally gotten a new scanner that works with XP, I've been busy posting some of my old comic stories in the Comix section, specifically Cosmikids and Space Bum.

I've had my film manuscript for AQ - the Movie lying around for awhile, so I thought I may as well post it. It's only the last portion of the Trilogy, which would certainly be too long for a movie. Even this script is too long, I'd guess at 4 hours, but no use polishing it any more until some studio tells me what they want (holding my breath now...) Actually, it would probably be best as a TV series.

Just posted the film manuscript for OFFICER GARGANTUA--The Movie. Gargantua is the superhero of GUARD COMIX, which I drew while working as prison guard myself back in the 80's. I always thought the story would make a great movie, so here's the treatment.
