This weekend I’ll be exhibiting at ConnectiCon, but it’s not all I’ll be doing. On Saturday night, at the final event of the night in the Main Events hall, I’ll be hosting the Cosplay Death Match. It has become the signature live event of the convention, and to say that I am lucky and blessed … Continue reading “The Host with the Most”
Every year I write about my upcoming weekend at ConnectiCon and this year is no different. Because this weekend I’m returning to ConnectiCon and I couldn’t be more excited. I have a great deal of history with ConnectiCon. I met the convention chairman at the very first Anime Boston because we randomly had adjoining tables. … Continue reading “ConnectiCon Once Again”
I would not consider myself a dedicated fan of Warhammer 40K, but I do enjoy dipping my toes into it once in a while. A setting/game system that possesses the tagline “In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war” is not one I can spend a lot of time with, but … Continue reading “The Guard Prevails”
My wife is away this week, visiting her good friend in another state. She took our son with her, so he could spend time with her best friend’s kids. I, once again, have stayed behind to both watch after our cats and look after the house. This is the first of two weeks this summer … Continue reading “The Return of the Solo Week”
Today is my birthday! I’m 47! I like to think of aging as “leveling up,” since it makes me feel more experienced and powerful than just getting older. So I am proud to think of today as the day I reach Level 47! If anyone is feeling inspired to get me a birthday present, you … Continue reading “Happy Birthday To Me!”
Over the course of the regularly-scheduled week-long break between stories, my son’s time in the fifth grade came to an end and his summer vacation began. And so my time of having regularly-scheduled work days has come to an end for the next two months, and pouring my time to make comics into the gaps … Continue reading “Summer Break Has Begun”
Yesterday I learned that I need to get my bottom canine teeth removed thanks to a case of internal resorption. I am, unsurprisingly, bummed out about this. This whole process began about a month ago when I was getting my regular dental checkup, which included updating several x-rays of my teeth. My dentist looked them … Continue reading “And Nothing But The Tooth”
One night, several weeks ago, I needed to find something new to watch with my 11-year-old son. There was nothing on our streaming services that caught his eye, so I chose something I liked from our physical media collection: Fist of the North Star. He loved it. As of this writing, we’re making our way … Continue reading “That Aged Poorly”
Thanks to maintaining a buffer of comics I’m in a place where I can take a week off from producing new pages and focus on other things. Normally this time is spent making new exclusive art for my Patreon or writing scripts for future pages, but this week is being spent catching up on the … Continue reading “Commission Catch-Up Week”
My first time exhibiting at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival was a blast. It was great to be surrounded by comics creators and a comics-hungry crowd. In an age of conventions that only partially feature our medium, it was nice to be part of a show that was all about comics. The staff took very … Continue reading “My Weekend at TCAF”
