The Return of Stickman #1031

I had the pleasure of doing a book review of The Graphic Artists Guild Handbook: Pricing and ethical Guidelines for my friends over at Unshelved, one of my favorite strips.

The Return of Stickman #1030

Etien says "I'm your greatest fan." and sent along this guest strip to prove it.

I overheard 90% of this conversation during a recent trip to a restaurant.

The Comic Critic Reviews Robo Vampire. Also: The Return of Stickman #1028

Robo Vampire is so abysmally horrible that it made a very special list: my Top Ten Worst Movies of All Time. Believe me, when I say that, I have seen some monumental disasters. My strip makes fun of how I felt on viewing it—that it started out as a bad cop vs. drug lord kung-fu flick, and then, halfway through production, the director decided that it needed something, anything, to give it some potential market value. If by any chance, I am mistaken, and this is how the script was originally conceived, I would be left wordless. Which is just how this film should be seen. During a loud party put it on, just to have something going on that will befuddle your guests. Other than the novelty of moving wallpaper, this film lacks any merit and I highly advise you to avoid it. Why did I review it? Because it was a fan’s suggestion. And I told him that I would move it to the top of my list of reviews to do—if he updated his webcomic’s archive. He did, so I did. And now I wish, oh how I wish, I hadn’t.

The Return of Stickman #1027 and Akron Family

This posting of The Return of Stickman is long overdue. What could possibly keep me from posting for a few weeks? Well, there were a couple of huge projects that hit my desk and I had to get them done before I headed off to Bumbershoot, a three day music festival held at Seattle Center each year. I drew during the concerts, and in some cases had the band sign the drawings. I will be posting a couple of those this week to make up for my tardiness. But, work and Bumbershoot were not the only things that kept me busy. I also had relatives visiting from Colorado and California. Having them here was a blast. Now it’s back to our regularly scheduled programming.

My page for CLAW-tu Barada Nikto #3

I'm a founder of a group in Washington State called The CLAW. Our newsletter is a bit different than most groups in that it doesn't contain any "news". Even the format is different than other newsletters. The CLAW creates tiny six paged comics called "trashcans" which are created from one 8.5 by 11 piece of paper folded and cut in a unique way. We then take these little treasures and sprinkle them around the city of Tacoma to various bistros, coffee shops, and stores. They are highly sought "found" items. This is the third issue and the them was "Tacoma, City of Density", a play on the city's real motto, "City of Destiny". You can download issues #1 and #2 here.
