A Josh Burggraf Christmas
My buddy Josh Burggraf surprised me by adding colors to my 2010 comic called “Miizzzard in ATTACK”:
Josh has another gift for the Internet, a fun five-page full-colored comic called “Space Date”.
I hope that y’all all have happy and chill holidaze. This blog will be back in 2013.

“Corruption ATTACKS the Miizzzard” an Abstract Comic
Previewing my tif files in Google Drive does interesting things to them. Here are corrupted versions of all six pages of my latest comic:
I think its works as an abstract comic. Props to Josh Burggraf for pointing this out to me.

“Moon Queen,” my Comic from Frank Santoro’s Course
Hey y’all, this post is late in the evening on Tuesday because I’ve been busy finishing the comic I made during Frank Santoro’s Comics Correspondence Course, coding an HTML shell for it, and uploading it to this site. The comic is called Moon Queen. Click the cover spread to read it:
I tried something different with the navigation. Because Santoro had us thinking about the spreads so much, I wanted you to be able to see both the spreads and the details. So on the index, you can see all of the spreads. Then you can use the next and previous buttons on the side to proceed through larger images of the spreads. You can also click on either half of the spread to see the page up-close. You can navigate between the page views but once you get to a new spread, you see it all at once. What do y’all think? It makes sense to me but I thought of it so I’m not be experiencing it as a first-time user would.
As some of you may know, I’ve been drawing all of my comics completely on the computer for the past couple years but Santoro had us draw everything in the class by hand (although I assembled the final comic in Photoshop). I’d been wanting to get back to doing some analog drawing so I was glad to take a break from the flickering screen. All in all, the process that Santoro taught us was fascinating. I learned a lot of things that you’ll see me experimenting with in future comics. If any of y’all are thinking about taking future sessions of Santoro’s class and are willing to try out a new approach to making your comics, I highly recommend it!

“Summoning” Comic from the Previous Catch Up Issue
Because the new issue of Catch Up is out, I decided to add the comic that I drew for the previous issue, before I became the comics editor, to my comics page.
Click the splash page to be taken directly to the two-page full-color comic, called “Summoning.”
“Summoning” stars the Miizzzard and my fellow GCPM members Jak Cardini and Chuch.

Shaman Thunder Page Twelve
Here’s the twelvth, and final, page of Shaman Thunder, a twelve-page comic that Josh Burggraf and I collaborated on:
For Shaman Thunder, Josh and I brainstormed the plot, divided it up into a page-by-page outline, and then drew alternating pages. Then, we decided to reorder the first four pages so that it’s two pages of me and then two pages of Josh. We like to be confusing. Shaman Thunder was originally published as a minicomic by the Gold County Paper Mill.
Next week I’m gonna have some short stuff, then maybe something longer? We’ll see. Meanwhile you should read this short one by JB called “Seen this Before” here.
