I redesigned the cover for the Summer 2023 issue of FUN TIME. As I worked on the story more, I felt like the image I'd initially created wasn't quite working. I think this pops a heckuva lot more. W...

I'm excited to share with you the (almost) final cover for the next FUN TIME 'zine.
This issue of my anthology series is going to be different from the previous three, instead of gathering together a number of short pieces, it...
2023-04-17 18:41:43 +0000 UTC View PostPage from a comic in progress that'll feature prominently in the newest issue of my FUN-TIME 'zine series. I'm having a lot of fun with this one. It's my one-man 'zine, I can climb inside my own navel as much as I'd like, and what I'd like is to write a new comic about my relationship to the band QUEEN.

This kind of embarrasses me, but is a part of writing. I posted my MCU comic yesterday, thinking it was fairly clever, but not feeling totally 100% about it. I realized after I'd put it up here, the problem wasn't so much in the concept, but in the execution. I was hemming and hawing in the text, being too wordy and mush-mout...

This one's for all Patrons
Not a lot of updates over the past two weeks. My wife got herself a case of Covid on a recent business trip. The rest of us seemed to avoid it, but just having it in the house causes upheaval. Then I did come down with some kind of sinus infection anyway, and today my son's home with a stomach...

I was sent an advance readers copy of RINGMASTER, the upcoming biography of Vince McMahon by Abraham Riesman, whose previous book about Stan Lee I enjoyed very much. I finished reading RINGMASTER, which I liked, but I have to admit, didn't connect to in the same way that I did the other book, because I am of course *extre...

Haha, no, this isn’t a current self-portrait (at least not this week), but it’s the start of a comic I’m hoping to make about reading novels.
Reading is important to me, but I’ve found that like all things t...

A short post just to say, when I updated this series on Monday, I definitely felt morose. I think it was a bit NYT postpartum (this happens a lot, you think something's coming that's going to "change" things for you, and it does a li...

I should have shared this yesterday when I could have been sure it was possible to buy a copy of this Sunday’s New York Times, but I had a full page comic in this week’s Book Review insert, a cartoon response to the new novel by Dan Kois, Vintage Contemporaries, which I thought was excellent. Hopefully this will get publi...

It’s shocking how much we love dogs considering how gross they are. I couldn’t love my doggy more, but I see all the nasty things she puts in her mouth
