Comic Book Resources‘ Blog, Robot 6, gave Earth 2100 some love today, too! Jk Parkin had this to say about the project:

As Kevin mentioned yesterday, ABC News will present an environmental special called Earth 2100, which is hosted by Bob Woodruff and will feature a graphic novel-style sequences by Josh Neufeld, Sari Wilson, Joe Infurnari, George O’Connor, Tim Hamilton and Leland Purvis. The special runs tonight on ABC at 9 p.m. Eastern.

From Kamandi and Scout to “Old Man Logan,” comics have had a long history of detailing life after everything falls apart, and it’s pretty cool to see that ABC noticed.

Thanks, JK!

This Monday December 8th, I’ll have a story up at Smith Magazine as part of their online anthology of Next-Door Neighbor Stories edited by Dean Haspiel. Titled, Vs, this story was written by Alexis Sottile and I back in the day and it is a harrowing tale of my cryptozoological New York rental history! See! My terrible run-ins with vociferous fowls! Frankensteinian pooches! Tentacled jam bands! Drunken cro-magnons! Pill-pushing werewolves and many many more! IT’S ALL 100% TRUE MEMOIR COMICS AT THEIR FINEST! See you there!

PC magazine has posted a piece about the top ten webcomics most deserving of more recognition and the whole Act-i-vate collective was included! Eric Griffith had this to say:

Is it fair to include an entire collective of comics? When you can’t pick just one, I think so. ACT-I-VATE now numbers 42 stories, written and drawn by a number of independent comic book creators, including names like Molly Crabapple, Dean Haspiel, and Dan Goldman. The stories range from a treatise on super-heroics (The Transmigration of ULTRA-Lad!), to psychedelic romance ( Kelly), to the silent film pastiche (Vulcan & Vishnu), and other oddities. If there’s a downside, it’s that the artists aren’t always on a timetable, so many of the best stories have yet to reach a resolution. (Art from Adrew Dimitt’s Drockleberry.)

Well, here he is again in all his glory!

Ultra-Lad!

This is a fine example of the kind of color sketches I can do for YOU when you make a donation of at least $50. Have a favorite character or situation you would like to see me illustrate? Well, hit that there ‘donate’ button, add the appropriate dollar amount with your sketch request and click ‘send’! Very soon you’ll be receiving a little piece of wonder like this in the mail.

What, you say, “you’re still hyping!?” YES, cuz this sketch request was very well timed as I am planning on developing this character further. Keep your eyes peeled because you’ll never guess where he’ll turn up next!

I am much happier with this theme as it is more in line with the rest of the site. It’s a rework of Ghyslain Armand’s wonderful theme, Margot. You can get it for your own blog at his website, www.itcouldbethisone.com. There will probably be a period of working out some kinks but I think it’s pretty much there. If you encounter anything weird with it please leave a comment and I’ll get to it asap. Okay, back to the drawing board!
