The event at Wild Pigs was a ton of awesome fun. It was great hanging out with everyone and drawing all night.

I believe Peter Timony and Pete Stathis, who draws the excellent comic, Evenfall, were the only two to complete a 24 hour comic. I didn't even try. Instead, I used the time to work on the Night Owls, finishing the art for five comic strips and penciling a sixth one, which, as it turns out, is the final episode of season two!

I also found a little time to work on a top secret NEW webcomic idea that we've been kicking around for a while now.

I've got a picture here to share with you, too.

This is a little collaborative effort by me and the amazingly talented Danielle Corsetto of "Girls with Slingshots". I pencilled it and she inked and colored it. Honestly, Danielle made it look so good, I wish she could work on everything I drew!

Enjoy!

A 24 Hour Comics event!

This weekend from noon Saturday to noon on Sunday we'll be helping our freinds at Wild Pig Comics II promote their annual 50% off sale by staying up ALL NIGHT and making comics! If you're anywhere near Kenilworth NJ this weekend, stop on in, no matter how late it is!

We wont be the only ones there, either! Joining us in this marathon event will be Erica Hesse of The Key, James Hatton of In His Likeness, David Gallaher and Steve Ellis of High Moon, Bill Ellis (no relation to Steve Ellis), Pete Stathis of Evenfall, and Danielle Corsetto of Girls with Slingshots!

As much as I love the 24 Hour Comics Challenge, this time I'll be using the time to get ahead on deadlines. Peter, however, will take up the gauntlet and write and draw 24 pages in 24 hours or less!

Agent Fat Kid!

There's a new cartoon on the YouTube called "Agent Fat Kid". It was written by my brother Peter (You may know him from the Night Owls) and animated by the good people over at "The Untitled Project". (You may also know them from "The Night Owls".)

Agent Fat Kid is the story of one portly juvenile who stands up for justice with his amazing gastronomical powers of regurgitation!

Just for fun, here's some original design sketches for Agent Fat Kid by me.

Con stuff! NYComicCon and Webcomics Weekend!

Here's a convention themed update for you.

First off, back in February we attended New York Comic Con and were interviewed by Comic Book Club Live's own Peter LePage.

The video is up on Newsarama, so if you have a second, why not check it out?

Secondly, I attended the New England Webcomics Weekend and had a few thoughts to share about it. You can read my musings as a guest contributer to ComicBook Resources "Robot 6" column here.

Google Jumbumblebutt.

That guy up there? That's Jumbumblebutt Markus, who is currently appearing in The Night Owls.

As my pal Dave pointed out, if you Google Jumbumblebutt, the only links you'll find are references to him! What are the implications?!?

That means we created an entirely new search term for Google that's never been used before!

Jumbumblebutt used to go by the name of Rumpelstilskin, but had it legally changed, because everyone already knew his name, and he likes to be anonymous.

If his goal was to pick an unguessable name, than he picked a good one, seeing as Google can't find any other instance of it in any language. It can, however, find 584,000 results for the name "Rumpelstilskin".

Good job, Jumbumblebutt!
