New Year’s is a time of self-renewal. We make resolutions, mostly to improve ourselves in an effort to be happier, more confident and more satisfied with one’s life. I know, 99% of the resolutions are of the lose weight/exercise variety, and 99% of THOSE don’t pan out. But I’d like to try for a more modest, perhaps moreContinue reading “2024: The Halfway Point”

Best laid plans…
Sigh. I was going to record a video but am out of time. My family has a virus running through, and my wife’s version involves all sorts of respiratory distress. She was to take my eldest to Washington, DC to compete in the National Geography Championships, but the doctor won’t let her fly/travel. So IContinue reading “Best laid plans…”

Something in the Water 4 is LIVE
Took me a little longer than hoped (but what doesn’t?), but Something in the Water‘s fourth installment is live over on the Instagram page. The story continues along as Faduma does a data dive, and young Will introduces us to his buddy, Meg. Art-wise (and while the story is important to me, this really isContinue reading “Something in the Water 4 is LIVE”

I took a year off in 2023, but Phoenix Productions already is signed up for the Small Press & Alternative Comics Expo (SPACE) for 2024! One of the best small press cons around, SPACE is a great place to meet other creators, share ideas, sell a few books and enjoy the zine-making life. My daughterContinue reading “Phoenix Productions is headed back to SPACE!”

Pro tip: The 2023 date and location are set! Mark your calendars! So while I am not blessed with time, I’ll do a quick and dirty rundown ofContinue reading “A brief and overdue update”
The SPACE 2022 haul!
Priorities are priorities, and my top goals of SPACE 2022 were to 1. Finally meet lots of small press acquaintances in person, some after over 30 years; 2. Introduce a lot of people to Phoenix Productions books and 3. Have some quality time with my daughter. Not necessarily in that order. And on all threeContinue reading “The SPACE 2022 haul!”
Post-SPACE wrapup – First show since ’87!
The 22nd Small Press & Alternative Comics Expo, aka SPACE, was held on May 21-22 at the Rhodes Center on the grounds of the Ohio State Fairgrounds. That’s the top-line explanation, but then there’s what happened inside. I’ll try to share what little I could see from my vantage point, as well as my personalContinue reading “Post-SPACE wrapup – First show since ’87!”
Hologram #5 is live
It’s been a touch and go, but that’s par for the course with Joe’s life since he was transformed into…whatever he’s become…back in 1988. But we did it! HOLOGRAM #5 will be ready for SPACE 2022 as well! Chapter 5 of our Counting the Days arc begins with the office fallout from Joe’s accident, givesContinue reading “Hologram #5 is live”
Price cards ready for SPACE!
I’d normally pass on sharing something as simple as price cards for a show, but this package has a couple special promotions.
