Another Day, Another Page

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

The pages are coming a little faster now. This usually happens at the end of the book, but I’m just a little over halfway. At least I hope so. This sequence is going a bit longer than I had originally planned, so I may need to add some pages on the back end, too. I [...]

That Bouquet is Gonna Kill Someone Tossed From That Height

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

I needed a piece of promotional art for the upcoming wedding issue. (Why? Hey, I have to have some secrets, okay?) So I managed to bust a lot of this out while working on my lap board in my living room. My Dad was in the studio installing some new lighting. I’l take a picture [...]

The Big Two-Oh!

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Yeah, this issue is the hard-drinkingest, bar-closing issue in Love and Capes history. How can you not want it? With this, I’m halfway through my planned number of pages. But since I’m not done with this sequence, there’s always the possibility it will expand a little bit. Man, I hope not, though. I’m rushed enough [...]

The Most Awesomest Panel of Love and Capes Ever

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

I can’t figure out why, but this might be my favorite panel of Love and Capes ever. No, you know what? It’s probably the dinosaur. So, I’m one page and four days away from being on schedule. Still, I’d like to burn a couple extra pages out just to get a little more ahead. Okay, [...]

Hey Nineteen, Part 12

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

And another page done! I’ve had a bout of creativity, or at least persistence, and have managed to bang out three pages is pretty short order. I feel a slowdown coming today, though. I know what the next scene is, but I have to figure out how to stage it. I’m not sure, but this [...]

Great Googly-Moogly!

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

It’s seems un-possible, but it’s true. Mid-Ohio-Con is next weekend. I’ll be there, as usual, with some new Love and Capes stuff, as mentioned elsewhere. The big MOC is always a great time, so if you’re anywhere near Columbus, come on down. Similarly unbelievable is that September is almost over. Man, this month went fast. [...]

Page Sixteen

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Back to scenes with Abby and her mysterious brunette friend. But, what I’m really showing off is the books in the background. They’re usually books I’m reading or, more recently, jokes. This time, we’ve got a shout out to my friend Roger Price, another Richard Castle reference (and hey, it’s back tonight!), a reference to [...]

Love and Capes Convention Exclusives

Monday, September 21st, 2009

You know, I should probably do something special for the upcoming cons. Wait, did you say "What cons?" Why, Mid-Ohio-Con, and Baltimore Comicon, two of my favoritest shows ever. MOC is always a great time, and as I’ve mentioned once or twice, I’m up for a Harvey Award at Baltimore. So, with all that, and [...]

Oh, Yeah. He's In It, Too.

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Hey, look, it’s the Crusader. We haven’t seen him since page three. And since he’s the book’s other main character, maybe he should pop up now and again. See, it’s that attention to detail that makes me so good at what I do. I feel like I’m falling behind, just a little bit. I think [...]

My Dinner with Page 14

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Here’s page fourteen, and we’re back to the fake word balloons. Sure, you’ve never seen these characters before, but you’ve actually heard them mentioned in the book before, and they’re amazingly important to the story. That said, this will be their last appearance in the book. Seems incongrous, doesn’t it? I want to get another [...]
