If there’s one Cartoon Network pilot that deserves to be a series, it’s Welcome to Eltingville by Evan Dorkin. I also checked out the comics that the pilot was based on & I would say that it perfectly portrayed nerd culture accurately. Very accurately I would say about this. youtu.be/mxFzRBQL2Ko?...

Little Godzilla bandai toy figure in front of a computer monitor, on which is playing the very poor Godzilla versus Space Godzilla movie.

I think this is the first Eltingville tattoo I've seen. Photo courtesy of @volkskaa on IG.

Winky the Pirate Cat. She only has one eye. Her right. She's a sweetheart and I love her.

Winky Weekend. Part of Winky Month, which is part of Winky Year, etc.

A photo of me holding Winky the Pirate Cat on the sidewalk outside our house. Taken four years ago this night, a few days before we adopted the little one-eyed cat.

Four years ago tonight we watched the sky together, while I made plans to find you a home with a friend. You had your own ideas.

A photo of myself looking like an addled doofus while holding a card that reads , "How the fuck am I sixty? I call bullshit.". It's my goddamned birthday and I'm not handling it all that great. I guess it beats the alternative. Bleagh.

Old photo of me at 20 or so, when I was a manager at Jim Hanley's Universe, a comic shop in Eltingville, Staten Island. I'm behind the front counter, the big wall of back issue comics behind me, mostly silver and bronze age X-Men and Spider-Man books. I'm wearing a Godzilla shirt that I wish I still had. My hair is a big poofy horrible mess. I look happy.

Friend of mine found this photo of me while I was a young nerd manager at a comic book shop (Jim Hanley's Universe, Eltingville, Staten Island). I'm probably 20 here, just about four decades back. JFC. Look at those wall books! The Marvel Tryout book! That shitty hair! Wish I still had that shirt!

Another index card comic featuring me and the Ghost With A Bag On Its Head. In it I ask the ghost whose ghost it is, and when it whispers the name to me, I cry blood like the ghost usually does at the end of one of these comics.

Another one of these from the Patreon.

My one-eyed cat and I. Wishing you good night at 7:32 a.m. Good night.

So it's good night from me, and good night from her. #GoodNight

A four panel comic from my Patreon. It's about the difficulty in pricing my art for sale, because it's so tied up with self worth and anxiety. Drawn on a blank index card.

Yet another old Patreon index card comic. Good night.

A picture of Winky the Pirate Cat, a patchwork kinda cat that is missing one eye and is waving a white paw close to the camera/phone. The text asks the question, "Who cuter than Winky?", riffing off the late, great pro wrestler's catch phrase, "Who better than Kanyon?". She really is a cute cat.

WHO CUTER THAN WINKY?

Panel from the first act of the Welcome to Eltingville animated pilot. In the cold opening, we see the Eltingville Club as they envision themselves in their Dungeons and Dragons campaign. Bill and Josh are arguing about which one of them got all their loyal minions killed. Pete is losing patience with them.

Winky the Pirate Cat behind my monitor with a bunch of small Mythos figures made by H&H Toys. There's Algernon Blackwood's Wendigo, Poe's Red Death, Hastur, and some HP Lovecraft creatures, all molded in green vinyl. There's also a Rover amiibo from Animal Crossing.

Winky Mythos.

Pencil art for a panel from the Eltingville Club story, "They're Dead, They're All Messed Up". Portrays the CLub members in zombie cosplay. Story is about a zombie crawl that the Club disrupts and ruins stemming from an argument about "slow-moving zombies" versus "fast-moving zombies". The panel is from the title page, which features title lettering done in the style of the original "Night of The Living Dead" film poster. The story title is a quote from the film.

They are.

A drawing of myself in a bleak, post-apocalyptic landscape. Swarms of flies fill the sky. In a word balloon I am saying, "My Kingdom For a Hearse".

Eltingville Club 2 NM Evan Dorkin Very Rare Comic Dark Horse | eBay I grade strict.

FYI: The Eltingville Club will be back in print at some point in the future, so no one needs to spend a lot of money on the out of print stuff. I know some people like collecting, and, of course, it's your money, but $240 can buy a lot of books!

Also, I'm just mad bc I only have 1 copy left (joke)

forgot to post this #eltingville #eltingvilleclub

Process of an overcrowded, overdetailed panel of a panicked mob at the San Diego Comic Con, from the last Eltingville Club story. Mostly scribbles, half-assed perspective lines and some inked crowd members.

Process of an overcrowded, overdetailed panel of a panicked mob at the San Diego Comic Con, from the last Eltingville Club story. Most of the crowd inked in, some background pencils firmed up and some word balloon placements added.

Process of an overcrowded, overdetailed panel of a panicked mob at the San Diego Comic Con, from the last Eltingville Club story. Everything inked except the section in the middle where an Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters needs to go. Word balloons edited down to a single balloon, which is lettered.

Final version of an overcrowded, overdetailed panel of a panicked mob at the San Diego Comic Con, from the last Eltingville Club story. I screwed up the Ecto-1 and had to draw a complete vehicle which Sarah dropped into the panel digitally. The panel probably took me a week's work between drawing, inking, fucking it up and reworking it and fucking it up at least one more time. The entire issue went like that. I turned it into a complete financial ruin. Haven't drawn a complete issue of a comic since. Might not ever, the way things are going. At least I got a bunch of them done while I had the energy.

Realized I haven't drawn a full comic since I killed off Eltingville ten years ago. A murder/suicide, of sorts.

GABE!! The (unofficial: according to Bill) fifth member of the Eltingville Club!! Secretary of Lost Media!!!!

Tulip is sublime tonight
