Wed, 25 Jun 2008 09:38:00 +0200 The latest shipping lists and updates are online. Sat, 21 Jun 2008 22:50:00 +0200 In this week's episode we get back to basics. Just the two of us talking about trades.

Thu, 19 Jun 2008 06:51:00 +0200  My son Raistlin walked up to me last week, handing back one of my collected editions I had let him borrow. But then - and this is rare for Raistlin, who usually delivers only the most succinct of graphic novel opinions - continued to opine of his own accord. "The artwork is really cool - it's like a cartoon." Up to this point, Raistlin always seemed to read comics to read comics, to the point where I sometimes wondered if he'd be happier if comics were written in simple prose. For him, the artwork always seemed to be secondary. So having paid attention to the art style this time, much less commenting on it - well, it must have made an impression. Raistlin had just finished Waid/Wieringo's oversized hardcover, Fantastic Four Volume 1. Returning the book to its place on the bookshelf, I felt an odd mix of emotion. A renewed sadness of Mike having passed away. But a thankfulness knowing Mike's artwork - and through the artwork, Mike himself - would not only always be around to impress, amaze and entertain today's comic fans, but to make new fans as well. Including a young boy named Raistlin, age 11, who - while sitting in his bed reading the Fantastic Four one rainy afternoon - came to realize how "really cool" Mike Wieringo and comic book art can be. So needless to say, I am more than happy to help spread the word about "The 'Ringo", a new art scholarship established in Mike Wieringo's memory. When Mike Wieringo abruptly passed away last August, the comics industry lost more than a great artist and creator - it lost a friend. Now, Mike's family has teamed with the Savannah College of Art and Design to create The Mike Wieringo Scholarship or "The 'Ringo" to help keep his spirit of generosity alive. Read on for more. [More] Thu, 19 Jun 2008 04:22:00 +0200 When the Graphic Novel Archive launched way back in October '06, I blogged about how - with such a ginormous project - I wouldn't make a huge dent in creating a comprehensive graphic novel index all by my little 'ol self. After all, there are lots of graphic novels out there. Lots. So shortly after the site went online, I implemented the first element of what was planned to be a complete community backend for the site, allowing anyone to participate in helping build the Graphic Novel Archive. But shortly after, I had to kill it. Read on for the reason why.

Grendel - about the allocated over-ordering of the limited edition hardcover, and his Ebay auction fundraiser for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, consisting of none other than a signed/beautifully sketched artist proof edition of the sold out hardcover. Mon, 09 Jun 2008 20:59:00 +0200  Updated - forgot the blasted link. Doh.
