Thanks in part to low print runs, high customer interest and USPS ineptitude (they lost 20% of my print run…sigh), Strange Times #1 is SOLD OUT for paper copies.

First HEROES NOW: PATRIOT & STRANGE TIMES mention!
The books are on the street, and former United Fanzine Organization Chairman and small press comics legend Jeff Wood got the first mention: I thanked Jeff for his kind mention, and he replied, “[T]hank you for the enjoyable books!” Small press publishing is fun!

Looking back, looking forward
Funny, that title. I’m a Cub Scout leader as part of my non-comics life, and “Looking back, looking forward” is the name of a Webelos (older Cubs) adventure that involves personal and Scouting history. It has been one of my favorite adventures for the Cubs — at 5th grade, these kids barely have a historyContinue reading “Looking back, looking forward”
