WELCOME TO SUPERFOGEYS ORIGINS, ROSSANA BUGINI! Today’s origin has been a long, long time in coming. I first wrote the script back in June of 2009. Rossana had the art done on the 9-page story a short two months later. Since then, the posting of the story has been delayed for various reasons, not the [...]

SIX WIVES PAGES 6 AND 7 I have to say that with this page and yesterday’s, Rossana really outdid herself. Originally, both of these pages were supposed to be one page, but she saw it a different way and I think the moment depicted above has a different impact because of that. Love that choice. Only [...]

‘SIX WIVES’ ENDS I think today’s conclusion to the ‘Six Wives’ storyline is probably more of a whimper than a bang, but I think that’s important. The story isn’t really over, is it? In fact, this story kind of dovetails nicely with the current SuperFogeys chapter, Chapter 8 – The Captain and the Spy. Big, [...]
