Non-Spoiler Review of The Flash (in Play form!)

So the season finale of The Flash was tonight. Steph watched it with me. Now she hasn’t really watched the rest of the season, and she’s not a fan of the comics, so she doesn’t really know what’s going on. I’m mentioning this because Steph hates when I misquote her, so fair warning: this is somewhat edited…

Please Don’t Save Constantine…

Dear Internet, I don’t ask you for much. Really I don’t. I mean, sure I bitch and complain a lot, but I never really ask for anything. But this is important. So just this once, I’m asking you for this favor… Please don’t try to save Constantine. For those of you who don’t know. It’s Upfront…

Day 1377 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up. Always catching up. So for the first year of Cosmic Hellcats, we did this joke where we spoofed Marvel Comic’s Galactus by having our main villains be Galactus’s kids. In my left hand you can see the my comic that collects those stories. In my right…

Day 1363 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up. Always catching up. Nothing makes you feel like you’ve accomplished something with your comic like going into the comic store and seeing it sitting on the shelf. Yep. I wrote that. 365 days

Day 1350 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up. Always catching up. And finally, one day before the con, my comics arrive to be sold. I actually wasn’t breathing for like the last four days. But hey, they look great, don’t they? 365 days

Day 1221 of 365 4 lyf. I didn’t have to shop today. (though I could have) I didn’t have to work on the comic. (though i could have) I didn’t even have to edit photos (though I should have) For once I just had a day where I could relax, sit back and catch up…

Day 1087 of 365 Again. Heads up Poozers! I’ve been meaning to read the latest storyline of Green Lantern for some time now, but I haven’t gotten to it. This apparently bothered Jameel who claims its the best thing since the best thing since the best thing since sliced bread. So he’s let me borrow…

Day 1069 of 365 Again. I love comics. So much so that I even write my own. So it’s no wonder that like many other comics fans, Wednesdays are sacred to me. You see, Wednesday is New Comics Day. All over America, Wednesday is New Comic Day. There’s only one national distributor of comics in…

Day 569 of 365 More. Witness the creative process. Maverick Studios isn’t just for photography. I alluded to my new project in yesterday’s pic. Today I spent the day working on it. I first decided I wanted to be an artist when I was seven years old. Only I didn’t so much want to be…

Taken for the Class with Dave group. The assignment was to take a picture with lots of colors. This was actually tricky for me because even when I don’t do black and whites, I’m not big on featuring lots of colors. But I did have an immediate idea for it. And so, off to the comic book store! I had to hit at least 3 of the following colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. I think I did a little better than that.

Day 114 of 365 days. Yesterday, I was "called out." In a nice and friendly way, sure. But make no mistake about it, Jack Scoresby and Stephen Poff laid a punk card down right in front of me. Jack and Stephen are fellow photographers, who also both happen to be doing this crazy 365 Days…

Day 54 of 365 days. It’s Wednesday and that makes it new comic book day. Phantom of the Attic is my local comic book shot and I have been shopping there for 14 years. There’s not much of a story here, but since going to the store once a week is such a big part…
