The Adams Family (extra "d" intentionally left out)...

Hey, guys!

A friend of mine recently (blah, I say recently even though she asked me several months ago and so many things pushed this back) asked me to do a little commission sketch for her husband for their upcoming anniversary. Since they dig horror stuff and their last name is "Adams", she felt an Addams Family themed cartoony drawing would be really cool. I finished the drawing this afternoon and it's on its way to her as we speak. Unfortunately, my scanner isn't big enough to handle this size drawing, so a photo of it will have to do for the blog's sake...

And on a side note...the 80 Pork Comics blog is now up and going...click on the link here or click on it over in the "My On-line homes" section

Comics & Music...it don't get much bettah!

Hey, guys!

A few little things to report on:

* Heroes Con was great, as always. This was the first time I've been on the other side of the table at the con, but I still enjoyed it immensely. For so many reasons, this remains one of my favorite cons...great people, spacious environment, a good mix of talent, tons of weird and wild costumes...I feel very comfortable, haha. Sharing a table with Jeremy Massie added to the enjoyment (if you haven't picked up his graphic novel, The DeaDBeat, please do so). So, yeah, it was good seeing some old friends, meeting new folks, and selling a few books in the process.

* The Supa Dupa Show, a cool weekly podcast from Asheville, NC about comic books, did an interview with me during last month's Fanaticon! The segment was aired on last Saturday's show (June 5, 2010), and it's at the 11:40 time mark. Click on the link here to listen to the show.

* I'm trying to line-up a few more shows for 2010, possibly one before SPX and maybe one or two afterwards. Again, you know I'll let you know when I get the word...

* I realized that I haven't said much about music lately on my blog. I realize this is primarily about my comics, but I stretch into that realm of babbling about music every now and then. On that note, I gotta mention that one of my favorite bands from the 90's, Far, recently reunited and put out their first album in 12 years (jeez, I'm getting old...). I'm sometimes skeptical when it's been such a long absence by a band, but man, this album blew me away. For those of you wanting to know some comparisons, they remind me a little of U2 meets Sunny Day Real Estate meets Deftones...worth it to check out. The new album is called "At Night We Live"...click to listen.

* And since I was on my 90's music kick (do I ever get off that kick?!?), I've been listening to Our Lady Peace's "Clumsy" today and was reminded all over again how great that cd is...enjoy a flashback on me.

Heroes Con...this weekend!

Hey, guys!

Just a quick reminder...I'll be at Heroes Con in Charlotte, NC on Saturday, June 5 and Sunday, June 6! I'll be sharing a table with the awesome Jeremy Massie...stop by, see us, talk about music, buy some comics...it'll be good.

Til next time,
Matthew
