Thank you, I am glad you like them. My titles are something I have carried over from my non-asemic poetry, like a fossil or a keepsake. I always felt my language poetry had an asemic quality to it, in the idea that I, as the poet, could only get a glimpse of the meaning of what I had written. I had to trust that the reader would be able to interpret and understand.
I totally agree with Byopia Press about your fantastic titles Lin. This is a stunning panel, another fine example of your earlier b&w GLP styles. Best wishes x
I find your titles evocative, taking me somewhere strange, but not unknown, Lin, but today, my hands are in a sink of stinging nettles, so injuries are occurring in concert with the reading of your monograph.
I am “liking” this comment according to the internet’s traditional meaning of the word, but I am not liking the sound of this at all. Yet I am very curious–whatever are you doing with a sink full of nettles?
That has become my understanding of “like”. As for the stinging nettles, they grow all over the yard and in the garden. Every spring we go at them with a garden fork and a knife. I usually cook up a batch for supper, but I find it very hard to cook with gloves on.
I have always assumed that clicking the “like” buttons on the internet means “I want you to know I read your comment and I am pleased you made the effort to communicate, because I know 99% of the people who look at my posts will not comment, perhaps for good reasons, and also there’s a chance I like the content of your comment.”
While I always like your comics, I am also extremely fond of some of the titles —like this one!

I don’t even like oven mitts.
