Today’s Opening Day for the Cleveland Indians and I have a lousy cold. Or do I? I mean, am I pretending to have a cold so that I can tell my boss I can’t work and spend it on the couch watching the Tribe (and a couple episodes of the Battlestar Galactica marathon) play the [...]
Yes, I understand the irony (pun intended) of an Iron Man pint glass. Doesn’t mean it’s not cool. Actually, out of all the Toon Tumblers except maybe the Love and Capes glass, this may be my favorite. A lot of them are recreations of a cover or a panel. This one required a lot more [...]
If, four years ago, you would have asked me what my favorite TV show would be, there’s no way I would have said Battlestar Galactica. I like sci-fi, and was looking forward to the miniseries, but Galactica, really? The mini-series had that languid mini-series pacing and that turned me off a little bit. I wasn’t [...]
The Lake County Captains are the single-A franchise of the Cleveland Indians, and their ballpark is maybe five minutes away from Fortress Zahler. I finally made contact with them last year when Comic Heaven and I provided them books for Free Comic Book Day. Since then, we’ve spoken of a couple of further projects. The [...]
A long time ago, or at least it feels that way, I did the illustrations and designed a book called Women Do and Say the Dumbest Things.

While I was in Orlando for MegaCon, I met a Green Lantern fan who wanted a sketch done. We wound up doing it through the mail for reasons which don’t need exploring at this juncture. He asked which member of the GL Corps I wanted to draw and I gave him three choices: Arisa (I [...]
Behold, the power of Love and Capes. Just a scant year and a half ago, in Love and Capes #2, I made a reference to the Sci-Fi Channel series The Invisible Man only being on DVD in the United Kingdom. I was a fan of the show, and for that and other reasons I really [...]
Wow, five years. I hadn’t redesigned the main Thomz website in five years. In art terms, that’s an eternity. So, I figured it was time to slap on a fresh coat of paint. The first thing you might notice is that the site is much more blog-driven. I use the great WordPress engine to run [...]
This is the first caricature post.
