The new stickers just dropped from the printer. For those who kept asking me for stickers, here is your chance to get some for a decent price @ RockawayBear.com. You know i used to send out stickers for free time by time for a certain amount of postage on my cost. But com' on! Wake up! That's not how it the world rolls. Now it's your turn...

The Walking Dead / comic & tv series

Yesterday i enjoyed the next episode of the new tv series "The Walking Dead". Been a big fan of the original comic books by Robert Kirkman & Tony Moore. Still a great read. The trailer for the tv series made my mouth water then. The series just started to be broadcasted in the US. It may take awhile untill it will be shown in Germany (also the gory film shots may cause delays or clipping). But thank goodness for my super magical powers i am already able to watch the episodes every week... hope this keeps me being scared!

Bat the buFFmonster

I got my little bat fellow sent back from the Giant Robot Gallery&Store in Los Angeles. It was part of the "The Monster Within" exhibtion showing customized Buffmonster's vinyl toys. I had to pick up my bat toy from the German costums. They gave us harder times than Bin Laden will ever get at the US border check...

Going Postal / Book

Martha Cooper kindly sent me a copy of her great book "Going Postal" ( ISBN: 078-0-9799666-5-1) about photos of customized postal stickers spotted in the streets. We came along this topic when i asked her to customize one of my silkscreened postal stickers after finishing a fine meal with all the nice peolpe from Meeting-Of-Styles in Venice/Italy. It is a project i've been running now since more than 6 years. Asking friends and artists i met to finish my Teddy Trooper's silhouette in their own styles and ideas. I guess i will do a fanzine of my collection one day soon in the future when i have run out of stickers then...
