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”

See you in Chillicothe on Saturday!
It feels like forever since I tabled at a show — SPACE 2022, over a year ago! Gotta rectify that. I stumbled upon the Street Cat Zine Fest (URL, Facebook) in Chillicothe, Ohio on the zinelove chat Facebook group (a great group with a distinctly international flair). Stephanie Renner apparently has been organizing these annualContinue reading “See you in Chillicothe on Saturday!”
“Talking Small Press Comics” really liked STRANGE TIMES #3
Most all small press comics and fanzines are labors of love. We don’t make them to get rich; we get them to share ideas, to scratch creative itches. That is SO true in the case of Strange Times #3. Matt Levin’s work is entirely different than anything in comics (big press or small, doesn’t matter),Continue reading ““Talking Small Press Comics” really liked STRANGE TIMES #3″

Call for Submissions: STRANGE TIMES 4
It’s time to start planning the next big anthology issue of Strange Times, and the theme of this issue will be “The Road Back”. We’re talking about the road. The literal road home. The road to recovery. The chain gang doing time along the side of the road. The road to reestablishing one’s roots. TheContinue reading “Call for Submissions: STRANGE TIMES 4”
The most amazing review of Strange Times #2
Being a member of the United Fanzine Organization co-op is a joy. Honest, it is. At it’s core, it does two things: 1. Provides a vehicle for members to mutually promote each others’ works, and 2. Through sharing complimentary copies of our works, give members a platform through the Tetragrammaton Fragments newsletter to review theContinue reading “The most amazing review of Strange Times #2”
