Next week Will Sweeney takes his weird world of organic cartoon tomfoolery to The Lazy Dog gallery in Paris. There's also a new book to accompany the exhibition...

While the press release for the show is in French it includes a rather nice line about, presumably, the place Sweeney's work has evolved from – a world of "de science fiction de BD et d'humour anglais" no less, which can only be a good thing.

Sweeney will be exhibiting some brand new work at The Lazy Dog and he also has a new five colour offset book of drawings published too, by Nieves in Switzerland. As Above, So Below the book is a 16-page treat and a few spreads from it appear below. It's available for £9 (plus p&p) from Sweeney's shop

As Above, So Below the show is on at The Lazy Dog in Paris from April 1 until May 8. More at Sweeney's site, alakazamlabel.com.

Cymbalta might help. Why are you so sad? and why do all those chickens have no heads? and all the dreary colors... you should call your best friends and plan a play date- laugh a little.
