Cool Night

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

Continuing my theme of acknowledging the good times… My brother Mike and I went up to Baskin Robbins tonight for their 31ยข scoop night (with proceeds going to America’s Firefighters). The Baskin Robbins in our area is across from the new Chick-Fil-A that will be opening soon. Here’s the thing, or things: Baskin Robbins had [...]

Look Who's On teh Internets

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

My “Del’s Folks” interview is up on YouTube. This is my favorite interview that I’ve done, and it’s a pretty good piece all around. I don’t know if I’m going to be as huge as the DC vs. Marvel spots, the finest live action superhero show ever, or even this ever popular one but you [...]

Second Chance (before the first, technically)

Monday, April 28th, 2008

Come Free Comic Book Day, you’ll get a lot of free books. You’ll probably pick up Love and Capes #7. But then you may experience feelings of guilt: This book is so good, I should have paid for it. Thom Zahler needs my money. Or maybe you’ll have missed the book entirely. I’m sure there’ll [...]

Sunday in the Park

Monday, April 28th, 2008

Yesterday I did five hours (or as I call it, The Nickle) of caricatures at a COSE event in Little Italy here in Cleveland. It was one of those near-perfect events. I never had a line, per se, but I did have a steady stream of subjects. At most, there were two or three kids [...]

Queen and Country

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

Here’s my last holdover from the New York Comic-Con. A lovely lady asked me to draw Mera. She liked the Mera image that I had on display, but wanted something "more regal." I messed around with it a little at the show, but it was a color commission so I knew I needed to do [...]

Go! Mighty Orbots!

Friday, April 25th, 2008

So I was sitting there, innocently minding my own business at my table at the New York Comic-Con when someone comes up and says "Can you draw The Mighty Orbots?" When I was a kid I loved The Mighty Orbots. It was the first Japanese animated cartoon that I can remember on Saturday mornings. And [...]

As part of the Free Comic Book Day festivities, I’ll be on the Mud, Mihalik and Mike Radio Show Wednesday, April 30, to talk about Free Comic Book Day, the FCBD promotion with the Lake County Captains, and comics in general. It should be eight kinds of fun. I’ll be on sometime in the 9:00 [...]
