Steve Wilson's Elves: definitely Different…

Check out My Elves Are Different, a "highly irregular web comic" by Steve Wilson, starring regular protagonists 'Sideburns' (a would-be fantasy author) and 'The Bowler-Hatted Gentleman' (his chum, one assumes).

Very droll indeed.

My personal favourite to-date is this one:

I got the heads-up from Simon Spanton of Gollancz books, and his personal favourite, for some reason, is this one:

Both cartoons are copyright Steve Wilson, and have been pinched without his express permission (sorry Steve! I did try get in touch to ask first, but I checked all four of your websites and couldn't find an email address...)

Edit 09.02: Immortalised in a webcomic! I've arrived..! :D

Hmm ... maybe it's just me, but the pics don't show ...

Haha! Must be DRM :p

Feel free to post them, as long as you leave them intact.

Hi Steve! My bad, I used a local rather than an absolute href statement (must remember that the URLs are completely different for stand-alone pages...). Should be fixed now...

Thanks for the permission-after-the-fact... and I did try to get in touch first, honest. Great concept you've got there, keep 'em coming..!

Hmm... I'm curious about who you are, 'cos as far as I'm aware I sent this to Simon! (well, to Scott and his wife, who then told me that it was passed onto the others...)

I feel like I've take the red pill! Haha.

Consider me a new reader.

Welcome to the genre files, Secret Squirrel -

And ah, now there's a question I've wondered many a time 'afore, especially when I'm deep in m'cups...

But really, I'm just this guy, y'know? ;)

Ah well. I guess you can tell who I am from my email address! Keep up the fun.

Ah, Mr Billet, I presume? Nice site mate, liked those website designs - the Flash stuff in particular. I'm pretty useless at graphic design meself, so I've never gotten into Flash properly, but I like it when it's well-applied, like the Dipper site there...
