Say what you want about Barry Bonds, and whatever controversy comes with him, but that was the best baseball moment I've ever seen happen. I started crying a bit, too - especially after his voice and his stony facade broke while thanking his deceased father.
I'm not surprised it happened tonight, there's already been 4 other HR so far, in only the 5th inning.
It's good to be a Giants fan today, and it was worth the wait and the horrible 2007 record.

| The Season, page 27.5 |
[15 Jul 2007|08:57pm] |
And here's the final page addendum for issue 1... next task is to re-do the lettering using some more formal comic lettering fonts, then I need to come up with a cover...
Sam, if you have cover ideas, let me know soonish.

| The Season, page 13.5 (mostly for Sam) |
[08 Jul 2007|12:27am] |
This is page 13.5 of The Season - finished in less than two days, probably a record for me!
Next will be page 27.5, to finish off "Issue 1".

| a fun little interim piece |
[06 Jul 2007|08:02pm] |
Well, not so little (14x17), and it took me 3 weeks to draw/ink, plus a couple days to color.
I got all excited about the Legion of Super Heroes after seeing the classic characters from the late 70's/early 80's appearing in the recent JLA/JSA crossover. I had just finished a 9 page story for Approbation Comics and decided to do one of my mega multi-character pinups.
( click here for the color version )
I'm pretty sure I got everyone up to 1984, with the exception of Elastic Lad and Insect Queen (Jimmy Olsen and Lana Lang). I also included Polar Boy, even though he appeared as a member after the '84 cut-off. Also, the costumes are not from a single time snapshot... I used my favorites for everyone. I always did like Saturn Girl's swimsuit outfit. ;)
Next, I'll return to the Baseball comic and finish off the extra 2 pages Sam gave me to fill out the transitions.

The Everything Test There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all. Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy :-) | Personality | You are more emotional than logical, more concerned about self than concerned about others, more atheist than religious, more dependent than loner, more lazy than workaholic, more traditional than rebel, more artistic mind than engineering mind, more cynical than idealist, more leader than follower, and more extroverted than introverted.
As for specific personality traits, you are horny (64%), artistic (62%). | | | Stereotypes | | Emo Kid | 89% | | Punk Rock | 87% | | Prep | 69% | | | | Life Experience | | Sex | 48% | | Substances | 49% | | Travel | 29% | | Politics
Your political views would best be described as Socialist, whom you agree with around 78% of the time. | | Socioeconomic
Your attitude toward life best associates you with Middle Class. You make more than 95% of those who have taken this test, and 43% more than the U.S. average.
| If your life was a movie, it would be rated PG-13.
By the way, your hottness rank is 67%, hotter than 73% of other test takers. | TAKE THE TEST brought to you by thatsurveysite

| man battles self... inked! |
[03 Jun 2007|03:33am] |
For fun,
( here is the comic version! )
Although at this point, it's not really man-battles-self, but it's still me in a fictional fistfight, kinda interesting.
I'm kind a dirty fighter...

|
| There's nothing so sad as... |
[27 May 2007|05:07pm] |
...a man battling himself.

A fun photo sequence used as reference for a fight scene, starring me, and me.

| Page 27, end of book one. |
[14 Mar 2007|11:26am] |
So I finished page 27 last night and posted it in the requisite places.
Sam, go over the whole thing on Comicspace and see if there are any edits that need to be made to any of the dialogue, now that the art for chap 1 & 2 is complete... The ending on page 27 seems like it stops on a dime - maybe we need an additional page after that to end issue #1 to give a lead-in to the next chapter/issue? Maybe a page of Tom in his office going over his speech with Larry, or the owner, or something? It feels like we need more of a transition, maybe.
Also, do you think there should be a dividing page between chapters 1 (Rick in his room talking to the kid) and 2 (the opening shot of the first practice on the field)? Either an additional transition page, or some sort of chapter divider?
Anyhow, ( here's page 27. )
I've been asked to draw a 9 page story for a guy I met on Comicspace, for the anthology he publishes ("The Evil Inside", I think the title is). I'll be working on that for the next couple of months, but I can also do refinements on the lettering (I'm thinking of changing out the font to a more standard comic-like one instead of my 'hand-lettering' font) if you wanna edit the script any, now that the art's complete.

| Page 26 |
[11 Mar 2007|02:27am] |
Finished tonight. Just one more page to go, and Chapter 2 is complete, pending any edits or additional material being added to fill out ...BOOK ONE.
Yes, we will be printing the first ~27 pages of The Season in floppy saddlestitched format.
Next, Sam owes me chapter 3, yo. Don't let me idle too long, or I'll start drawing bondage commissions again!!

| Karaoke madness |
[06 Mar 2007|09:58pm] |
Ok, some of you have heard me doing drunken karaoke in various bars, now here's some sober karaoke over the internets:
Get ready to laugh!
I thinks maybe I should hammer down a few shots of rum before trying this again. But this rocks. Once I get my 'sea legs' and get over singing in the house, I'm gonna do more.

I am sharing this with you.
Our cat may be possessed by the Devil. Or, he's just into Slayer or W.A.S.P. or something.
( View at risk of being grossed out. )
Think this could get us as much press as the Jesus-face-on-toast people?

| A short break from "serious" comics... |
[22 Feb 2007|09:48pm] |
..for a commission.
( boobies, not safe for work )
I have page 25 of "The Season" pencilled and queued up for inking, so this was just a blip on the baseball radar - I did a similar one-page commission for the guy who created this character about 3 years ago, and he saw my stuff on DA and asked for another. Easy 80 bucks!

This game is the shiat. It is like Dance Dance Revolution for air guitarists, and therefore perfect for me. I dig eet.
