Spring fever's setting in.

Readings at the KGB Bar

The KGB Bar in the east village hosts lots of great literary readings.

Above are sketches from a reading in February 2008 of authors published by Starcherone Books: Zachary Mason, Aimee Parkison, Joshua Cohen, Joshua Harmon, Sara Greenslit, Douglas Manson, and Ted Pelton. Please click on the image to enlarge it.

Below are sketches from a Brooklyn Rail reading last October featuring Donald Breckenridge, Lance Olsen, and Yuriy Tarnawsky.

What does this one mean, Doctor?

Girls with short legs.

Another Recent Strip

This one appeared in The Brooklyn Rail over the holiday on their back page instead of its usual slot in the fiction section. I guess that's kind of an honor.

Aline the Alien

I've begun uploading my Aline the Alien comics to Kidjutsu, a new website for children. Come have a look. There are a number of good comics there. Register to vote on them and help shape the future content!

Last Year's New York Comic Con

The New York Comic Con is coming up this weekend. I look forward to attending some of the classes and panels they're offering. I may as well post a few more of the sketches I made last year, in anticipation of having a new batch soon.

This is from the panel, "Arf Arf," hosted by Craig Yoe and featuring Al Jaffee, Glenn Head, and David Cowles.


And here we see Jessica Abel and Matt Madden presenting their book, Drawing Words and Writing Pictures.


Here are Mark Evanier and J. J. Sedelmaier discussing "The State of Animation."


And here's the 2008 grouping of "The Legends Behind the Comic Books." Presented by Michael Uslan, we see Murphy Anderson, Jerry Robinson, Irwin Hasen, Ramona Fradon, Joe Sinnott, Stan Lee, Joe Simon, and John Romita. Dick Ayers was there, too, but from where I sat he was hidden by the podium.

I still have a few more of these sketches that I might post sometime soon.

I filled a stack of cocktail napkins, and ended up with this one image that I kind of like.
