Caboodle!

I mean Caboose! A free newspaper full of comics! Edited by Chuck Forsman and Max de Radigues, it's going to be at Mocca, and it's all about this wonderful weird town where the Center for Cartoon Studies is, White River Junction, VT.

Here's a lil preview of my page in it.

This is the only convention Chuck and I will be at until SPX in October! Crazy.

PLUS we're making T-SHIRTS....the greatest T-Shirts you ever saw in your whole life.

I didn't mention this before, but the palette I created is from John Stanley's Melvin Monster, as printed by D&Q. The colors in that are amazing.

Freddy Digitally Remastered























New plan: I'm going to work my way through my first Freddy book, from May 2009, and color every page and put it up on the internet. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay. Every week a new page will go up.

Note the new "pages" feature on the right. That's where I'll be putting them. Unfortunately uploading to blogger still messes up the color, but I'm going to try to figure it out....

Pizza Hole

burnspage3_11

Some of what I drew today while watching Charles Burns talk. It was awesome. My favorite was when he talked about the source of a lot of his images of creepy openings and holes: which is an image of an intercom in Tin Tin that he saw before he could read, so to him it was just an ominous hole in the wall that talked.

Some of what I drew last week while watching R. Sikoryak talk, which was also awesome, and in 3-D.
