ChARTer Tech Workshop
I took a day trip to Atlantic City to offer a workshop at ChARTer Tech High School for the Performing Arts. What a great school! I was invited by their animation teacher, Kyle Warren, who is a regular CCS workshop attendee and fellow cartoonist. Check out his amazing animation classroom! These are some lucky students.…

Comic Book Lovf-In, and an Update to the Shop
Lovf New York: Destination Crisis was profiled on the Vice website! Check out the write-up on Nick Gazin’s Comic Book Love-In #85. Says Gazin: “If this comic looks like it was drawn by a crazy person that’s because it was. Jesse Reklaw had a crazy period and this full-color zine presents his sketchbook pages from…

MoCCA Recap
In 2013 MoCCA got classy! I like how the Society of Illustrators managed it. If they can get the table cost down I will be a loyal fan. I had a good time with my table mates Jesse Reklaw, Ariel Bordeaux, Rick Altergott, and Ellen Lindner. I wouldn’t mind if the attendance had been…

KGB Recap
What a night! This year we had six readers, which is the max capacity for a two-hour show.

The readings were diverse, ranging…

CCS Industry Day
I think the question was something like “who likes whiskey?” Man, I keep busy these days. I just got back from a two-day trip to White River Junction. I hitched a ride to CCS Industry Day with Heidi MacDonald and Carol Burrell. Jesse Reklaw was in town for MoCCA, so he tagged along for an…

Binding Deep Girl
I spent all last week printing, binding, and shipping about 40 copies of The Complete Deep Girl. It’s slow going, especially the binding. There’s a learning curve, I’ve never bound a book like this before. The Complete Deep Girl is 128 pages, too large to be saddle stitched. I had to create a faux square…
