Who are you?
Simon Donald, 'Him Off the Viz'. Viz co-founder, comedian, writer, cartoonist, media whore.
What have you done / what are you doing?
You see me, right, I invented Johnny Fartpants (1984) and Sid the Sexist (1982) amongst other toilet funnies.
Why comics?
Because I wasn't good at reading. I discovered that I'm dyslexic when I was forty.
