“Let’s go to the flowchart.”

I’m terrible with word puzzles, Scrabble and being clever in pictures (which doesn’t bode well for me being a late-blooming comic book artist). My brother, however, is very good with these mental acrobatics. Here is his submission to GraphJam, which is just highbrow enough to be “Family Guy” funny:

About my favorite four-year-old

My brother sent me this email today about my nephew:


Hee hee hee hee.

I was rolling in the car tonight on the way back to Dominic’s house. He’s been having the Bible read to him at night and I asked him how it was going.

“Good.”

“Did you get to the flood story yet?”

“The one with Noah’s ark, yeah.”

“Did you like it?”

“Yeah.”

I asked him some questions about the two birds and all that and then said:

“Did you know that there’s another story just like that about a flood?”

“Really?”

“Yeah, except in this other one Noah is called Utnapishtim.”

“Why’s he called Utnapishtim?!?!?!?!?!?”

He pronounced it properly and his enunciation was so perfect that I started laughing my ass off. It was cute as hell. I explained why his name was different, yeah. He wasn’t proud of himself for having said it right. He just kept saying it over trying to get me to laugh again.

I asked him, “Do you remember which animals Noah took?”

“All of them. Except the unicorns were goofing around.”

*pause*…”Is that why we don’t have unicorns anymore?”

“Yeah.”


God, I love that kid!

Frater Mine #6 art preview

The awesome Juan Romera and my very talented brother Scott have provided me some art samples from the next issue of Frater Mine. Respectively, you can see pages 1 and 5, and the cover above. I can’t say enough good about them - they do so much to being my stories to life and I’m genuinely thrilled to be working with them.

Frater Mine #6, “Shadows of the World Appear”, the third part of the Here, There and Nowhere story arc will really mark the beginning of stories told as an ensemble. But first, we have to get the main players - Colleen, Matt and Mark - isolated from everything they depend on, then bring them together. It’s gonna be rough. Enemies are everywhere and allies are closer than they imagine. It’s going to be a great issue, especially if letterer Ed Brisson will be part of the staff again. I know I’m looking forward to it!
