Preview: Page 107, before and after

Here’s a preview page from “Hereville.” These preview pages can have spoilers, so don’t look if you’d rather not see! This time I’m showing one of the pages that got redrawn between the first version of Hereville, and the graphic novel. I show both versions, so you can see how they compare. (Info on buying […] Continue reading

Yet Another WisCon post or Why This Black Woman Isn’t Your Friend

yet-another-wiscon-post-or-why-this-black-woman-isnt-your-friend
I’m probably not going to be willing to talk about this much after today. Because I have a life and responsibilities outside of fandom. Ones that are frankly much more likely to yield good results from time investment than arguing with dumb motherfuckers about basic civics lessons (the next person to make a free speech […]

Some of you might not get the context of this next post as I have mostly been blogging about it at my personal site. Click here if you want the backstory.
Can someone please explain to me how one makes the leap from “We no longer want to honor this person” to “Book burning and censorship“? […]

2010 Festival of Cartoon Art Wrap-Up

Here’s a photo of me giving my presentation at Ohio State, taken by “Six Chix” and “Tina’s Groove” cartoonist Rina Piccolo:

I like how she captured me in mid-demonic gaze.  The talk went remarkably well, even better than my wildest expectations. The crowd was great, full of cartoonists and lovers of The Noble Art (that’s what […] Continue reading

Rape Culture USA: How race, class, misogyny and homophobia intersected in the Kelly and Antoine Dodson story

rape-culture-usa-how-race-class-misogyny-and-homophobia-intersected-in-the-kelly-and-antoine-dodson-story
Today in my class we were trying to learn a camera technique. We decided to use funny youtube videos to illustrate the proper way to shoot the scenes we wanted. And my classmates decided that the Antoine Dodson videos were such GREAT candidates because man, wasn’t he SO FUNNY?!?!? I tried to point out the […]

This Week’s Cartoon: “Snippets of Conversation With Cartoonists at the Festival of Cartoon Art”

“Hereville is the culmination of several positive kidlit trends….”

Laurel at From The Mixed Up Files, a blog about books for middle schoolers, interviews Heidi Estrin, the Vice-President of the Association of Jewish Libraries, about Jewish books for kids. Laurel is a Hereville fan and gets a bit silly. :-D QUESTION: what trends do you see currently? Any good new books we should be […] Continue reading

This Week’s Cartoon: “Search Engine Wars”

More often than not, I am impressed by whatever tweaks Google makes to its products. The recently- improved image search that expands the photos as you roll over them is very cool. I am not a fan, however, of Google Instant. The ever-shifting search results are distracting, introducing a sense of clutter to the minimalist […] Continue reading
