Hi, Folks!
“The Museum of Forgotten Art Supplies” is an eye opener, because I own most of the equipment on this site, and I still use much of it daily.  Have computers changed everything that much?  Well, yes, as a matter of fact, they have.
I am surprised by how few people my age are online.  It [...]

Hi, Everyone!
This vacation week has been sunshine and roses all the way!  Today, Benita and I ate lunch with some old friends from college.  We are just about done getting issue 9 corrected and packaged, and it will be off to the printer quite soon.  At the end of next issue, we may have enough [...]

Hi, All!
Yesterday I went to Downtown Comics, my local comic shop, bought a few things, and gabbed with good friend Pete Kilmer, one of the DTC managers.  I hadnÆt been in a comic shop for a good while, and it was pleasantly overwhelming to see all the comics.  Really, if I could afford it, there [...]

Hi, Folks:
This review can be found on J.’s blog over at Mysteries of the Arcana, a supernatural dimension hopping tale that has quickly become one of my favorite comics.  I love this type of story, so I endorse it wholeheartedly.

Cheesecake: Joseph Michael Linsner, Gil Elvgrin

Hi, Folks!
Word on the net is that Dr. Stephen Strange may get his own big-budget movie in 2010, or thereabouts. I’ve always loved this character, and I think it would be awesome–more than awesome–to see the bizarre mindscapes and planar excursions of Steve Ditko brought to fruition on the big screen. For those who have [...]

 
Hi, Friends!
 
Lacking, as I am, any truly random thoughts tonight, I have decided to instead ply you with a short review of Grant Morrison’s and Andy Kubert’s “Batman and Son” trade paperback.  I’ll let you know right off the bat (hehehe) that I enjoyed this book.  It’s Batman, right?  Why wouldn’t I love this book?  [...]

For an independent comic book, the art, story, and even the colors in this mini-series are high-quality.  You’d swear this title were published by one of the larger companies instead of by Scott Story [...]
