It's a nice idea to think that I can add some material of substance to this site more than twice per month but as of late, I've been busy with a host of additional projects and it's proven difficult to write much of anything in the way of new material for greeklish.org.

Last month (or maybe it was the month before), I completed an overhaul of the Erythrós Press and Media site, re-launching the site with a new look and improved listings.  Some renewed interest in my Banner of Victory replicas allowed me to fund a new run of them from the flag maker in Australia.  The newest batch of flags are made from knitted polyester which is more durable and better looking.  We're now selling the new flags on eBay and on our site.

I've also printed a new book using lulu.com.  Essential Texts of Marxism-Leninism contains the most important and influential works by Marx and Engels, Lenin, Stalin and Mao in one small volume.  We'll likely be adding this to the Erythrós Press catalog in the near future.  It is a very simple, "no-frills" presentation of the texts and the book does not include any introductory texts or commentary.  I had hoped to use an original photo for the book cover but lulu.com is not entirely intuitive or user-friendly in some respects.  At some point, I'll write a little more regarding my experiences with lulu.com.

From time to time, I am contributing work to wrestling and entertainment sites.   I've created a couple of new "Action Figure Theater" comic strips for hittheropes.com.  One installment features a look at the mythical super powers of John Cena and the other offers a candid look at wrestlers' views on political issues, including the recent changes to Arizona's immigration law.  I've also started a series called "Hidden Gems" for the sci-fi and comics blog primaryignition.com.  In this series, I'm reviewing obscure back issues that comics enthusiasts might not otherwise have heard about.  Thus far, I've profiled issues 1 through 5 of the Eclipse run of Airboy (Eclipse Comics, 1986) as well as Superman #245 (DC Comics, 1971).

Whenever possible, I'm still adding material to the Marxists Internet Archive and my recent focus has been on new transcriptions of speeches and articles by Enver Hoxha.  I am also doing some work on the August Bebel Internet Archive.

Somewhere along the way, I've managed to resurrect the archives of a long-absent political website (more on that some other time) and I am also preparing a review of Paul Feldman's new book Unmasking the State: A Rough Guide to Real Democracy at the request of the folks at A World to Win.  That review will be posted here at greeklish.org within the next few weeks.

As if all that wasn't enough, I finally seem to have mad a bit of progress on some major personal goals and this certainly is shaping up to be a very exciting time. 

Re-presented below is the very first installment of "Kanebert".  I made it some months ago after getting the idea from a dream.  I actually bought the "Masked Kane" figure from eBay just so I could make this comic strip.   The comic was originally posted in early 2010 on another website and since that particular site is now defunct, I figured greeklish.org was a good permanent home for it.  Cherish it, folks.
