It’s been some hard work lately, and it’s not over yet. But here’s some news for your face.

As you can see above, my upcoming Next Comic, which I’m coauthoring with a longtime-first time collaborator of mine from my years living in the Caribbean, is zeroing in on its final look. Art historians of the future will refer to this as the start of my Film Noir Muppets Phase. But I’m happier with this than I’ve been with any of my graphic art in a very long time so I’m not going to do a ton of complaining about it.

Second. In re: 6-Commando, it seems that, through the luck and extreme generosity of one Anthony Bourne of Bourne Creations, a long time supporter of 6-Commando and an incredibly accomplished (and better-published!) graphic novelist and designer, I will be at the Small Press Expo this year! And that means something else: Season 1 of 6-Commando, “Last Night Was The End Of The World,” will be going into print as soon as I can get the proofing done and the manuscript off to the printers.

‘More on this story as it develops,’ as the fellow says. In the meantime, you owe it to yourself to read, and to buy, Tony’s amazing work. Find him on Amazon, and at https://the388th.com.  The guy draws direct ink to paper. It’s astounding. Really an astonishing honor to be sharing space with him at the Expo, and I hope we’ll see you there!
