Hey guys! I'm working on a comprehensive BM site, and I was wondering if anyone would be game to help me out on it. I basically need someone to help me design and run the site, for one thing... I also need people to help me gather info and compile all the data I'm putting up. It would be a big thing, and I'd appreciate the help! I already have a chunk done.
Anyone? Email me! Nyaokins@Hotmail.com - or post a response here. ^-^ Thanks!

Hey everybody! If any of you are going to, or just interested in, the San Diego Comic Con go join the new SD Comic Con community:
 sd_comic_con
And, for those curious, Chynna will be going and will most likely be at the Oni table for most of the Con.

Hello ya'll.
I first discovered Blue Monday through my friend, Kate. Because Kate and Chynna were good friends throughout highschool in C.A. (Kate still has some of her early EARLY works...Chynna improved alot!). Suposedly, Erin O'Neil was based OFF of Kate. ( She even LOOKS like her...scary).
Anyway, Blue Monday is funny funny stuff!
News on Chynna (if you already didn't know)~> Divorced her husband, Guy Major. I know why but Imma keep my mouth shut. ^_^;
Bleu rocks!

Hi, I'm new =)
I found Blue Monday early this year... I was poking around my favorite comic shop and found an issue of the freshly released "Lovecats" one-shot. The artwork looked really great, and any comic named after a New Order song HAD to have some sort of cred, so I grabbed it. The clerk told me I would love it, and sure enough, I did... soon after I got the two trade paperbacks. I'm addicted. I can't wait for "Dead Man's Party".
I really love the way Chynna does "soundtracks." So many moments in my life cause me to think of certain songs, as though they should be playing in the background... her use of this mechanism - and the references to the music that I love - were definitely a few of the things that drew me in to the comic.
As far as my favorite character goes.. I'm biased. Being the resident red-haired Irish punk chick, I'm very partial to Clover (as you may have guessed from the icon =)
Nice to meet you all!

BLUE MONDAY: DEAD MAN'S PARTY (one-shot)
by Chynna Clugston-Major; covers by Clugston-Major & Brereton
It's time to spend the spookiest holiday with Bleu and the kids, and do Halloween BLUE MONDAY-style! It's one of the gang's famous parties, with costumes galore and plenty of punch and pie. Only this time they ve brought their scariest stories with them. Mimicking the famous night where Mary and Percy Shelley and Lord Byron challenged one another to a fright fest, ultimately resulting in FRANKENSTEIN, the Fresburger hooligans see who can put the greatest fear into their friends. But do they know that the scariest spectre of all has yet to reveal itself? That s right! The Jesus Heads are back! This all-new one-shot is another slice of the mad mind of Chynna Clugston-Major, the multiple Harvey and Eisner Award-nominee! Plus, an all-new ghostacular back cover by NOCTURNALS creator Dan Brereton, dressing the gang in ghoulish Brereton style costumes!
32 pages, black & white, color cover
contains harsh language and mature situations
In stores: October 16, 2002
$2.95 US, $4.50 Can

You can now select Irish as the default language for LiveJournal. (Or Japanese, or Norwegian, or Esperanto...)
Of course, this only affects the sidebar menus and stuff. It doesn't actually translate people's journal entries. ^^

Which BLUE MONDAY Character Are You?
Muahahahha!! Yay!
I'm hoping to get the newest book on my way to work tonight, but the store that's on the way tends to not carry more indy stuff (the current owner is a mah-rahn and needs to have his custody as 'cool comic shop owner' revoked -_-)
Umm, I don't have anything actually really special to say, just-HI! Sleep is for weeners an' dumb mod-bois! >; D
