I hear they have some splendid guests...

Also!  While obviously M-C-M 3's artist has already been selected, I would be one slap-happy pappy if the droids announce it to be Pete Bagge, Patrick Dean, Chris Schweizer, Fred Hembeck or one of the Hernandez Brothers.  Seriously, a Jaime Hernandez Anderson?  Somebody give me lots of money so that I may commission such a thing right now!

Norm Breyfogle!

The world of Batman fan films is an impressive one, and this is a very very good one. They guy playing the Joker is pretty bang-on.

Anyone who was at the last Hi-Ex will have seen the Electric Man fellas there.

Well, they're filming their big scene on the above dates and need extras for the filming.

It's a comic convention scene, so they need folks in costume etc.

Anyone wanting details, drop me a line.

As suggested by Uncle Fester, here's a caption comp for you!


Nothing rude! And anything containing the words 'Aren't you a little short' will not be counted!
I'll give you until after Easter weekend and the winner, whcih will be the one that makes one of us laugh the most, will relieve a shiny T-shirt as a prize!

We've had the first auction lot arrive this very morning, and it's a rather gorgeous page by Bryan Talbot from Grandville...

No you dirty minded filth, it is not a thread about willies.

It is a question about Hag Dinosaurs. As I'm sure a lot of you do, I think way too much about this sort of stuff and the drive to work this morning brought a question I thought I'd ask here:
Did we ever see how Old One Eye lost her eye?
