Come see me on Free Comic Book Day!

For those who don't already know, May 2nd is Free Comic Book Day. You can go to a participating comics store in your area to get some 100% free comic books to enjoy. I especially hope that parents will take their kids to avail themselves of this event, as we can never have enough kids reading, and reading comics. There's a shop locator search box on the FCBD site for your convenience, so check it out!

But if you're in the SE Michigan area, I hope you'll stop by Green Brain Comics, where my Art & Story compatriot Mark Rudolph and I will be signing books and giving away free comics of our own!

Both Mark and I will also be doing some live podcasting from the event, so besides getting a chance to nerd out over visual storytelling with us, you can be a part of our show.

Hope to see you there!

Character Design Workshop This Sunday!

If you're in the SE Michigan area this coming weekend, I encourage you to come out for a few hours of interactive cartooning fun at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Detroit. I'll be leading a comics workshop Sunday, April 19, from 1-3 p.m. We'll be exploring character design in comics--how one must think carefully about the difference between what they delineate visually versus what is described narratively. Young or old, it promises to be a lot of fun.

More information can be found on the MOCAD website. Hope to see some of you there!
