CANIFF. OTOMO. GOLDEN. Tracing the roots of cartoony heads on realistic bodies, a tradition I first saw articulated by Frank Springer (in a talk about Frank Robbins).

You don’t choose style dissection as a lifestyle, it chooses you.

An old Sunday that got flagged by the WPO editor cause the boobs were too sexy!

Thanks. That’s what the client wanted

A fresh commission! If interested in a commission contact me.

Jack Kirby, with Chic Stone, tells a tale about Jack Ruby’s murder of Lee Harvey Oswald, from May 1967’s Esquire magazine.

I had no idea at all “46 Hours & 36 Minutes In The Life Of Jack Ruby” existed. It’s amazing what you can turn up while trawling through old archives.

An Artist of Caped Crusaders Emerges From the Shadows

Noce to see Klaus Janson get a gallery show in NYC, and my pal George Gustines write about it in the NYtimes. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/a...

How lovely are Alex Toth's original character designs of Dr Smith for the otherwise risible Hanna Barbera Lost in Space cartoon special from the 70s.

Part of a fun job at DC that had Jimmy learning about banking.

Norman Osborn

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

Old Samples that did not get me work for Marvel and DC that I did sometime around 1986 in hopes of picking up work. At the time had been doing activity and kids books but I got nothing —year or so later I did that Daredevil job with Williamson over Ditko so never give up.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

Finished the Batman sketch I started on tonight’s livestream

Old Joker drawing

Oskner and Wood.

A page from Trax Rover my own character and story that lead me to getting my first job from 1982.

2 pages by the late Sal Buscema that show how great he was. Artists like Sal were around forever and always good but it was easy to take them for granted as they weren’t always flashy. But comics ran because guts like Sal were there every month sometimes on 2 books! Clarity of storytelling always.

if I ever need a lawyer, somebody call this lady

A very very old commission
