Magic Bullet #5

Hey everyone!

The latest issue of Magic Bullet, the DC metro area comics newspaper (chock full of Maryland and DC area artists) is coming out tomorrow at Big Planet Comics in College Park, Maryland! Spearheaded by Matt Dembicki, Rafer Roberts, and Andrew Cohen, the latest issue has an "end of the world" theme and looks like it'll be pretty fan-frickin-tastic.

Here's a sneak peek of my contribution:

Keep a lookout for it - it'll be in stores tomorrow! And while you're at it, check out XOC: The Journey of a Great White, Matt's book which has just been released from Oni Press! It'll get you prepped for Shark Week! Mmm ... shark week ...

The Stacey to My Claudia - Time For Another 30-for-30!

I have this great friend at work who's always convincing me to broaden my fashion horizons. To put it into Baby-Sitter's Club parlance, she is Stacey (fashionable, classy, cutting edge) where I am Claudia (wacky, artsy, easily bored with my wardrobe). She was the one who first suggested to me, a year ago, to try a 30-for-30 with her. It was August, we were hot and bored, and the only good things about that time of the year (according to me) were Mad Men and Shark Week. So we timidly stepped into the 30-for-30 arena for the first time, just doing it during the work week and still feeling restricted and self-conscious. Then, this February, we gave it another try (a real try, for 30 days, for reals - you can see my recap here), and it finally clicked and felt something more akin to fun than torture. And soooo, since this fashion blog I read announced it was starting up again, I thought .... 90+ degree weather? Boredom setting in? Summer blues hitting me before summer starts, without Mad Men and sharks to distract me?

I'm totally in.

Here we go peeps, the Summer Edition of 30-for-30! And no fun scarves and layering to experiment with this time, it's gonna be crrrazy!
