Lawn Con!

So this saturday october 5th i'll be in youngstown, ohio to celebrate Yambar day, otherwise known as Lawn Con (tm) a free comic show put on by Chris Yambar, writer of Simpsons comics, Spongebob comics, Popeye stuff, and all around awesome artist. I did a interview with him last year and have translated it into mini-comics form and will have plenty of copies for everyone who wants to know the inner workings of the mind of Yambar. Along with a bunch of my other comics I've printed along with a box of cool comics from assorted publishers and art and stuff. There's also fire-breathers and music and more comics and lots of awesomeness.

The address if you would like to come is: Chris Yambar's House 23 South Hartford Avenue Youngstown, Ohio 44509 USA
and the show is from 11 am to 4 pm. If you can't make the show go check out his paintings and comics on his site YAMBAR.COM

Hope to see ya there, keep reading comix kids!

Signifiers #2 review

I want to get back to doing reviews on the blog, but rather than just new comics I try I'm going to stick to comics I have that you might not and that are really great. So with that let me tell you about the signifiers.

m.r. neno is a devoted fan of jack kirby and his art really shows the influence of studying the kings work. Tho this issue, the second seems filled with lots of talking and only a few big action spots. But never fear! You only need enter his online world where the first issue is available free to read to see the mad action that flows out of his pen. So go read that if you haven't, it introduces all the characters like Thelma who is half dog & half woman, Splash the guitarist star of the comic, Tiffany who has four eyes and speaks broken english, some motorcycle guys and a heat seeking dwarf. There's also an interview with Tom Scioli and some more comics at the end. Neno has been making his comic world for a few years now and it really feels like it. Everything has got that real quality, like you could go visit the places in his books and be confused meeting the folks who live there. Issue three is promised to be action filled and i'm eagerly awaiting its arrival. oh yeah, Neno writes draws and letters the book all himself and he also gets good grades from Paul Pope, so don't take my word for it, the kid has got skillz! go read it at www.nenoworld.com

slow updates

it's been a long time since i updated my blog here or put anything new up on it, so i'm kinda just checking in an saying i'm still alive and making comics and all that good stuff. For those of you who are in the northeast ohio area I'll be at the N.E. geek expo again this year with a bunch of comics and art, that's november 2nd in ashtabula ohio. And the Genghis Con is as always the saturday after thanksgiving, last year i just barely made it and they had to give me a tiny table they pulled out of the back room, so i'm gonna be there early this year. Anyways, i'll post some new comic stuff as i get it done, for now check out the links to my comics online to the right. Also i'm gonna be doing some reviews of awesome comics i've gotten lately.
