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 [...]

THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT I’m gonna cut right to the chase here: I have a shot at a contract with DC Comics. This is it. This is what I’ve been waiting to tell you for months now. This is the “secret comics project.” What is it? It’s the story of a old movie theater [...]

UPDATE! NOW IN COLOR! Thanks, Jon! WHY BLACK AND WHITE? Unfortunately, the colorist of the Six Wives story, Jon Conkling, threw his back out last week and was not able to get the colors for this page done in time. Here’s hoping he feels better and is able to return to us soon. When he [...]

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, [...]
