Warren Ellis : picanthropoid genius
Warren Ellis crafts graphic novels. Last week, his mum passed away. He writes on his blog about receiving a flower delivery from DC and Marvel comics:
Bone tired after being woken up by a flower delivery. I imagine the delivery girl was expecting a mourning family, rather than a naked 37-year-old man with most of his hair missing and a beard pointing in three different directions at once showing no more command of language than a mongoloid Neanderthal with an itchy arse and unexplained liver pains. You could see in her eyes the sudden stark fear of being clubbed, dragged in by her hair and impregnated with my gene-deficient and leg-waving primitive seed before being dismembered with a flint tool of some kind and lightly cooked over a makeshift campfire out back.
Why don't I own anything written by this man?
BTW, you could also do worse than listen to his Apparat Programmes for a cross section of indie artists.
