Before I get down to wheeling and dealing
today's ten new illos, I'd like to make a
few publishing announcements and offer a
few links of personal interest.
First off, I've been informed by several
readers out there that the 50th issue of
CAPTAIN AMERICA with my two page tribute
to the Sentinel of Liberty (colored ever
so niftily by Chris Giarusso--I've seen scans,
if not the actual comic) hit the stands this
very week!! It may be only a scant pair of
pages, but remember--one Hembeck page promises
double (and sometimes triple) the reading
enjoyment of most other scribe's single pages,
so if you're so inclined, I suggest you seek
it out, and I sure do hope you like it!!
(And if you do, TELL someone! Like, hmm,
maybe Tom Brevoort?...)
I'm doubly delighted to report that my ten
page "Petey" epic, "Loa and
Order", guest starring the Drumm brothers,
is scheduled to appear in the very next issue
of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN FAMILY, number seven,
out in one short month!! Again, while there
are high hopes and tentative plans for more
such stories (you DO want to witness young
Petey Parker's first meeting with Johnny
Storm, don't you?...), it wouldn't hurt my
chances any if you'd drop a line saying as
much to one of the Mighty Marvel Big-Wigs!!
Beyond that, I'd like to take a second to
officially congratulate my buddy, Roger Green, and his lovely missus, Carol, on chalking
up a full decade of marriage--to each other, even!! This notable event
took place last week whilst I was off-line
and visiting--oddly enough--the honeymoon
capital of the world, Niagara Falls!! Significant
of nothing, I suppose, both worth a mention
just the same!! In any event, big-time congrats
to both Roger and Carol--and as long as you
two stay clear of Angelina Jolie, I'm sure
everything will be fine!...
Then there's my OTHER old buddy, Rocco Nigro,
who's finally joined the internet revolution
with a blog of his own, "On The Rocs"! He's just getting started up, but you can
still go check out some of his intriguingly
surrealistic art, as well as a review of
that recently published collection of Golden
Age Boody Rogers stories!! Nice job, fella--now
we just need to get you on Facebook where
you can mingle with the likes of yours truly
and the faux Bob Crumb...
Well, that brings our pre-commercial commercial
announcements to an end--now, LET THERE BE
ART!! (Um, but you'll have to go over to today's Fred Sez blog entry to see it...)
