At the risk of sounding like Tina Fey doppleganger, Sarah Palin, all I can say is “Fer crying out loud!” It definitely looks like we’re being plopped headlong into winter once again! In the interest of keeping warm however, I’m drawing at a feverish rate. Kee-ripes!! Nothing warms the cockles like a cramped freakin’ hand, grasshopper! Aye chihuahua! Looks like it’s really paying off though. I just finished the copy edits on two new pieces. The HELL’S KITCHEN parody I just finished up for HUSTLER is going to print this month and I finally put the ol’ spitshine on the last page of my BIGGEST LOSER satire. I haven’t actually watched the show all that much but what’s to know, right? Fat people get thin and then they win money! Of course, this being a parody for a magazine with the reputation of HUSTLER they also must do the “nasty” at some point…yechh! I however, tried to keep that to a minimum this time around given the subject matter. THE BIGGEST LARDASS will be featured in a forthcoming issue of ‘America’s Funniest Humor Magazine’, HUSTLER Humor! On the way, a spoof of the new slasher movie MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3-D, as well as THE SARAH PALIN CHRONICLES. Well, that’s it for now. Stay warm!
Well, Valleycon was far from lucrative but it was quite a bit of fun! I met a couple of artists who are far more talented than I. Joel “Mojo” Moen, who you see at the right there, was one of them. (However, I have a head full of rich and luxurious hair, so therefore I win.) The other was an incredibly cool cartoonist from Grand Forks named JoJo Seames. She has a crazy-cool style that really put a shine on my stinger. You can check her stuff out at
So I got the chance to meet Tracy Scoggins and she was very nice. I says to her, I says… “Hey, I really enjoyed you as Judith in Demonic Toys!” and she shows me this copy of the Demonic Toys comic book she has on her table. I say, “Could I buy that and have you sign it for me?” She says, “You bet” and starts signing it for me. I’m very excited to say the least. Then her publicist/handler says, “Twenty-five dollars, please.” Ahem…twenty-five dollars?! Not exactly what I expected. Oh, well! I guess that’s why they call these things CONS, eh? Gotta run now. Guess I’ll go enjoy my twenty-five dollar comic book. Sigh!
