Another big year with the UFO Awards

The 2023 UFO Awards were an unexpected surprise insofar as it reflected 2022 work, my real comeback year in the United Fanzine Organization. And what a surprise it was! It’s hard to properly express how it felt, being away from the hobby for so long, to return and feel the appreciation of your peers –Continue reading “Another big year with the UFO Awards”

2023 in Review

What a strange trip this has been! So much happening in comics, at home and in the world. I don’t know as it’s entirely appropriate to share everything outside of comics (as this is a comics-centric operation, you know), but a Year in Review needs to be posted to provide historical perspective…but also to give me timeContinue reading “2023 in Review”

Radio silence means things are happening!

It’s been around a month since I last posted, and for good reason. Lots of stuff on the family front – three kids in the throes of fall sports season, along with evening practices and weekend travel – plus a quick trip to SPX in Washington DC kept me on my toes. Oh yeah, andContinue reading “Radio silence means things are happening!”

HEROES NOW #4 is finished

A little update for those interested: Heroes Now #4 is complete. I’ve been hop-scotching back and forth between Heroes Now, Strange Times, Hologram and Something in the Water (much to the chagrin of my long-neglected Inktober 52 artwork) for a while now. I figured it would be best to put one project to bed andContinue reading “HEROES NOW #4 is finished”
