In January 2008 I was derailed on a month's stopover enroute to relocating to China when I suddenly brokeup with my partner of 9 years and was left wandering around Vietnam for the next two-and-a-bit month's while i was trying to work out what to do with my life and where i was going to go from there. These comics were a kind of documentation of that process.

Once on a train to amsterdam I overheard this conversation between a couple, where the man was laying down some very strange home truths, these comics are kind of a mixture of those and other little late night confessions you overhear in bars or on buses.
** fortunately for you though, the love detective is currently on holiday. Check back later for it's inglorious comeback. **
Boo the bear is actually a real teddy bear that once belonged to my mum, and then to me when i was a child. Over the years though and for the better part of his life he has lived in shoeboxes at the bottom of closets and has just been generally ignored. He's not to happy about this, but then again, he's not too happy about most things.
