mystery project #1= MAD!!!

...or monroe to be more precise.



that's right four pages a month in MAD magazine from now (meaning today, so go out and buy it, you bastards!!!) til the day i show up at their offices naked and dripping with honey (which they frown on). i'll spare you the dream-come-truery, and just say that i am very, very happy.

see, i can be happy sometimes...

not often, but sometimes...

45 minutes...

go here to find out why...

i'm still not entirely sure...

super-type-hero stuff...

some pages from the (not so) recently completed JLU #29 that i inked.



it was a lot of fun...



nutty koo-koo fun...



that's b'wana beast fun, baby...

soooooo.... i had some requests for a (san diego) con report from some people. well...

it was good. really good. monique survived, i picked up a poop-load of work (more stuff i'm not allowed to talk about).

best moment: monique tracking down and publicly blasting a deadbeat former publisher (again, gotta love that woman)...

worst moment: losing my glasses in the pacific. appearantly poseidon was feeling a little squinty and looking for a sacrifice...


stupid poseidon.

re: blarg...

an email from my wife...

"Peanut

you should put my birthday picture up on your blog. You need to put
something up. It's sad."



god, i love that woman...

san diego....

...here we come, right back where we started from...

and so on.

all packed up and ready to go. i'm abso-fudding-lutely exhausted from banging out my first instalment of mystery project #1 (see below). still, i'm very happy with how it turned out. no official announcements, though, until at least the end of august.

i have a table in artist's alley again this year, last i heard it was table JJ-11. i think that's in the far corner up against a wall. you'll find it.

oh, and for the first time ever my wife is coming with me. may god have mercy on her soul.

here's a picture of a dragon...

pulse interview....

here...

although, i could have done without the "unemployed artist" tag. i guess it doesn't pay to be facetious in typed interviews. good interview though.




it's been a bad bad week. i'll be back with something happy to report when i'm capable of being happy again.

be nice to eachother...

MAD! pt. 2

here's a recent job for mad kids. you'll have to pick up the next issue (4?) to find out what it's all about. one way or another it was enormously fun to do.



and now in black and white...




mad good.
