October 1st Update
Whew. Another month passed.
What happened. September. Let's see.
First, this weekend was the lovely Stumptown comics fest. I had a great time, seeing old friends in cartooning who I hadn't seen since last year, and meeting new ones. So many people came by just to say hello, and it was fun chatting and just relaxing. Sushi was had, Art Battles were fought, and it was good. Below is a pic taken by the lovely Amy Sakurai who stopped by to say hello.
There was sailing. My friend Mary came up to visit. There were wanderings about Portland and Seattle. I saw Matt's art exhibit. Started reading up on brain function and Nootropics (Rich's fault). Miles and I fell off the swing. Come to find out, I didn't miss out on the Tesla coil at Ben's housewarming. Freelance stuff. And I just release Little Dee Volume #2.
Mid-October i will be moving out of my current residence and become a wandering cartoonist again for a while, focusing on the New England/Northeast. For possibly quite a few months. Not worrying about where it leads, just about getting everything packed and in storage before I begin the big float.
Well, the comic this month. Entitled The Inner Cell. The story actually came out of an inspired email exchange with Jen Wang. Scott McCloud's 24 hour comic challenge for some reason seemed the appropriate method. Perhaps I felt that in this case: the less I thought about what i was writing/drawing, the better.
Overall, I am pleased with it. It was fun to work with such intensity, and to have to be loose, while holding it together. And parts of it I am totally in love with.
My friend Dan accompanied me for drawing a 24-hour comic (he finished his as well), and the whole experience was infinitely more awesome for his company. Here's a picture of Dan and I, about half-way through (it was a long day/night):
And here's me doing a look-over before adding the final touch-ups:
