Seattle Stranger Reviews Danny Dutch

The Danny Dutch comic book got a favorable review in the Seattle Stranger.

"New Portland-based comics publisher Sparkplug has produced some exciting work in its short existence, but the most fully formed and hypnotic of all of them is Danny Dutch..."

Take that, Bookhunter!

Stumptown Comics Fest

This weekend in Portland, Oregon is the Stumptown Comics Fest! Sparkplug Comic Books, publisher of the Danny Dutch comic book, will be in attendance. In addition to all their usual great comics they will have three brand new comics releases -- check them out. The Sparkplug blog also lists some other exciting weekend events.

Also, my pal Tom Neely notes on his blog that he contributed the cover to this week's Portland Mercury newspaper which has an article about the comics fest (links are in his blog post). He will have a table at Stumptown, too.

I'm not going to be there, but I'll be thinking of you being there.

Rough Comics Pages

Some pages from my sketchbook for a mini-comic I've been working on since 2006. I get about two pages done a year and they look like this. Caution: bad language

Danny Dutch in Cream City Review Available Now

According to their site, issue 32.2 (Fall 2008) of Milwaukee's The Cream City Review is out now. I gave them ten of the weekly Danny Dutch strips, plus a new short strip called "The Secret Handshake" to run alongside them. I haven't seen a copy of it and I don't know anything about the rest of the stuff in it, I'm sure it's great.

I'm not completely sure of their distribution, but it's probably available at indie bookstores and that bottom shelf in the magazine section at Barnes & Noble.

Times sure have changed.
