NEW TALL TALE RADIO INTERVIEW! To celebrate SuperFogeys 200 and a few other things, Tom Racine interviewed me last week and we had a blast. I think this is a good one. I was very careful about inappropriate laughter and even reduced my number of “ums” per minute by 75%! Heck yeah! Tom puts it [...]

I arrived with my wife Erin and eldest daughter Elora at 9:40am at Heroes Comics [...]

PACING Pacing is an important aspect of the art form that is comics, thought not heavily examined. How do you get a reader to slow down or speed up when they can pretty much take things in as quickly or as slowly as they desire? I don’t pretend to really know the answer to that [...]

SOVIET SAM and T.L. COLLINS Welcome back, T.L. Collins! More than any other artist, T.L. defines what a SuperFogeys Origin should look like. We haven’t seen him grace these “pages” since 2009, but he comes back in a big way with this 8-page Soviet Sam story. Sam is a character we’ve only glimpsed briefly in the [...]

WELCOME TO SUPERFOGEYS ORIGINS, CHRIS WATKINS! I have nothing but good things to say about my collaboration with Chris Watkins. Not only has he been a dream to work with, but the storytelling choices he makes and the very defined, cartoony spin he puts on things leaves me a bit jealous. And those colors! Chris’s [...]

BOOM. ACTION. Chris Watkins turns it out in fine style today. Looking solely at his work on Odori Park, I don’t think you’d ever guess that Chris could handle action like he does at the end of this page. It’s just so, so great. MY BOOK HAS PASSED ITS BIGGEST TEST SO FAR There’s one person [...]

This page rocks and serves as a perfect lead-in to the major revelations in store for next week. But, like most things in SuperFogeys, I’ll bet many of you have figured it out already from the trail [...]

WHO SAYS I’M WORDY? I can be a wordy sonuvagun, it’s true. But one thing I’ve been working on a lot lately is trying to pare down my word counts in the comics (not here in my comments though–I’m not that merciful). Comics are very much the interplay between words and pictures (not strictly speaking, [...]

AN APOLOGY You may have noticed the today’s SFO page looks a little different than the ones that have come before it. What you’re looking at is what’s called flats–just the very basic colors have been laid into the art. What’s missing is the rendering, which is what really makes art like this sing. Click [...]
