CHARACTER ACTING Good comics feature good character acting. I believe this. It’s one of the reasons why Calvin & Hobbes is so beloved and the lack of it is partly to blame for why Dilbert is often so derided. Can you imagine Watchmen without Dave Gibbons’ expressive and well-defined characters? I can’t. It’s why I love the work of Kevin Maguire [...]

TWO OLD FRIENDS I was looking back over my run as artist on The SuperFogeys today (something that’s A LOT easier to do on the new site, by the way–you’ll find out why soon) and I couldn’t help but note the lack of backgrounds. Granted, I was never known for doing detailed backgrounds–or very many [...]

When Chip handed in this page, I didn’t know what to think. I mean… that’s a lot of blood. A LOT of blood. But the page is well designed that it doesn’t feel gruesome to me. Just sad. Incredibly, incredibly sad. It’s not funny when bunnies bleed. REMINDER! The SuperFogeys 5th Anniversary is next week. [...]

Our 5th Anniversary Celebration concludes today with this stellar “recap” of Chapter 12, “Jackpot!” from Steve VanDyken. Steve had the unenviable task of recapping a chapter that isn’t even finished yet, but his take on how it could end is wonderfully dark and cynical–and all the funnier for it. You’ll see how close he gets [...]
