Thanks to SCOOP for spreading the word. It’s a nice overall roundup of my career. I guess I better get back to making sure there’s new stuff in case they do another one in ten years.

Well, the Phoenix show was blast. Always fun to be a guest at a good show! I’ll also be a guest at the February 23-25 New York Comic Con, so if you’re in the area stop on by and say howdy! I’ll be doing a ton of TOKYOPOP panels and in-booth signings promoting ZAPT! #2. See ya there!

Hope everyone’s having a happy and safe Martin Luther King day. Take time today to celebrate what the day is about. Also an old buddy and supertalented artist Drew Posada just passed away. Brian Haberlin did a great job describing Drew in the following release…

“A week before last a good friend and supremely talented artist Drew Posada (but he usually only signed Drew on his pieces) passed away unexpectedly.

I met Drew and his twin brother Alex back in 1993 when I was first starting the Top Cow coloring department. I went to pick them up at the airport but as a joke on me they never told me they were identical twins ? they even dressed the same! The men in black, from the top of their cowboy hats to the tips of their cowboy boots. Immediately, I was taken with Drew, his Elvis like drawl and his kick ass attitude ? he really succeeded in pushing the envelope in those early days of computer coloring. But he was more than just a colorist he one of those guys who could do it all and I?m sure would rather be remembered for his beautiful digital paintings of the female form than any coloring job he ever did. He was also one of those guys who would do anything for a friend.

He will be missed. We offer our deepest condolence to Drew’s family and friends.”

COMIXTREME gives us a nice write up on our ACTIONOPOLIS books and the crossover beween genres.

Check out the great roundtable discussion on the PULSE with all the writers on THE SPIDER CHRONICLES!

I just saw the new Silver Surfer, excuse me, Fantastic Four trailer and it looks awesome. Hope the movie is as good as the teaser! When I was the character designer on the short lived animated series we hoped they’d do a Surfer movie so it’s great to see that ten years later he’s getting his shot.

The fine folks over at TEENS READ TOO were kind enough to interview me. Go to TEENS READ TOO and check it out!

I talk about Zapt, Actionopolis, and other zany things those wacky teens are all talking about!
