Nix Comics Quarterly #2 Party Pics

Pics from the April 15th Nix Comics Quarterly debut party at Kafe Kerouac. Good comics, good company and food and a read-aloud by members of the Whistling in the Dark Theatre Co.

I'm hard at work on a killer story for Nix Comics Quarterly #3. Pencils posted here soon.

Save the Signifiers @ Wild Goose Creative, Friday, June 3rd, 7 PM

This Friday, June 3rd, at 7pm, help support the publication of The Signifiers #2.


In order to get issue 2 printed, we need your pre-order before the end of the week! We're going to make it awesome for you by having an amazing assortment of local cartoonists gather at Wild Goose Creative (2491 Summit St) bringing their wares to sell as well as items for a one of a kind silent auction. We'll top it all off with free food and music by DJ Geeky G! So come on down, bring your friends, or pre-order online at: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1317514173/the-signifiers-2?ref=live

Local cartoonists are invited to set up shop, join the festivities and sell their wares. The only admittance fee: a cool item for the silent auction!

Beautiful Old RCA Box

A stack of jazz 78s I purchased at a garage sale a few years back were still in the box they'd been shipped in from RCA in Indiana.

The box was as beautiful as the records inside! Click pics for details.

Anatomy of a Murder

An example of my working process, for Nix Comics Quarterly #2. Was looking at a lot of Mort Meskin when I drew this particular tale.

Thor Sighting on Free Comic Book Day

I couldn't lift the hammer.

Bernie Krigstein Lives!

Looks like Darywn Cooke's been reading Krigstein lately.

Not that I'm complaining. Good for him!

Neno Does Thor Signing!

I'll be signing books, selling cool stuff and probably eating popcorn at Hollywood Studios Theater this Saturday, May 7th, from 11:30 on. A movie called Thor will be screening. You may have heard of it. Thor himself will be making an appearance (times to be announced), curtesy of Alienated Productions.

The signing is in conjunction with World's Greatest Comics, Westerville's best, new comic book shop, situated on the other side of the Glengary Shopping Center parking lot. Shop owner Jeff Patrick will be managing Free Comic Book Day there!

So, come check out World's Greatest Comics, peruse the store's amazing selection, get a free comic book, then get to Hollywood Studios and see Thor. And me. Thor will be the one with the hammer.
