Comic-Con@Home

July 23rd, 2020 This is probably the only time I’ll ever get to be an exhibitor at San Diego Comic-Con. And also be able to bring my dog. Due to the pandemic, this year’s main event has become Comic-Con@Home, and since we nerds, geeks and weird folk go entirely all out regardless of the situation,Continue reading “Comic-Con@Home”

TV Picks Of The Week!

July 22nd, 2020 Are you stranded on a desert island of stress and uncertainty? Same! Are you looking for an escape raft of the streaming variety? These are my four picks for what I’m watching (and adoring) this week. Expecting Amy — This three-part documentary is a master class in what it means to beContinue reading “TV Picks Of The Week!”

Happy 15th Anniversary To My First

July 13th, 2020 Today marks a neat anniversary I’d like to quietly celebrate with some introspection and a sparkling grape water. 15 years ago today, on July 13th, 2005, I released my first full-length album. The Next Step existed before this (it all started in high school…), but this was the first time I putContinue reading “Happy 15th Anniversary To My First”

Pocket Universe Of Joy (Or, S.O.S.)

July 9th, 2020 Releasing a book this summer, of this year, has not been the most fun. I mean, let’s be honest: this year has not been the most fun. So moments like this — seeing my book on a shelf at one of my favorite shops, Mind’s Eye Comics — are little bubbles ofContinue reading “Pocket Universe Of Joy (Or, S.O.S.)”

New Directions

May 25th, 2020 What kind of doofus would release a book about connecting to one another at a time when we’re so far apart? This kind of doofus. A doofus who could absolutely use some of your knowledge and wisdom. As any writer does, I spend time reading about sales and the “art” of selling,Continue reading “New Directions”

One More Thank You, How To Read A Comic Book, It’s Release Day & My Birthday!

May 1st, 2020 “For the first 35 years of my life, I was a bit player. …When the time came, I knew I had to be more.” – Dolores Abernathy, this week’s episode of Westworld It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to. 😂 If you don’t want to watch 7 delightful minutesContinue reading “One More Thank You, How To Read A Comic Book, It’s Release Day & My Birthday!”

I Heart Tomicon

February 29th, 2020 Tomicon, the convention I attended today alongside some of my favorite people, was low-key one of the best conventions I’ve been a part of. And that’s not hyperbole or an exaggeration; allow me to explain why. Immediately, Hastings is a splash of cold, stunning water when you arrive. It’s the kind ofContinue reading “I Heart Tomicon”

My Top Ten Comics of the Decade

January 3rd, 2020 In a previous post about my favorite television series of the 2010’s, I mentioned that I don’t think I’m very qualified to be creating most or any of these best-of lists. But if there is just one list in the multiverse that I AM qualified for: this is it. In alphabetical order,Continue reading “My Top Ten Comics of the Decade”

The Best Television (imho) of the 2010’s

December 30th, 2019 The Best Television (imho) of the 2010’s. As everyone with an opinion (hello, internet!) gathers to share their best-of lists of the decade, I am going to be uncharacteristically reserved; I don’t think I have a lot to add to the conversation when it comes to topics such as music or film.Continue reading “The Best Television (imho) of the 2010’s”

CATS: A Review

December 21st, 2019 Watching a man who once played a Holocaust survivor with complete control over magnetism lick milk out of a bowl and then smush his face against a wooden post is not a sight I will soon forget. Seeing Cats is not an experience I will soon forget. But wait: there’s more! IContinue reading “CATS: A Review”
