The Why Can't I Finish This

This is probably by far the latest I've ever posted. I'm sorry. I used up my Sunday afternoon on me things. Not that I don't normally do that, just that there was so little time to get anything into a post. This week we mourned the terribly premature loss of an icon of the comic book industry. R.I.P. Dwayne McDuffie. (via Scott McCloud). And today the Oscars took up some people's attention. Not mine. I watched Children of Men this weekend on Bryan O' Malley's suggestion. It did not disappoint. And somehow I shuffled through the backlog of links listed below.

I was reminded of http://www.meekcomic.com/ and learned of http://bird-boy.com/ via nicholas kole's blog http://nicholaskole.blogspot.com/.

And then Dustin Harbin introduced me to---well go see for yourself. @ http://www.dharbin.com/strip/diary-december-4-2010-comical-mass/

Absolutely love the Rooster Cogburn painting by Massimo Carnevale @http://sketchesnatched.blogspot.com/ (via Drawn)

And then here is Natalie "Tally" Nourigat's new blog for Over the Surface.

I'm sorry. There it is again. I keep wanting to wrap this up but my mind is searching for substance, inspiration, and brilliance. But sometimes things are just dull. Goodnight.

It's Good For You!

I can't even express how good Dan Hipp's blog has been lately. I've also been nosing around Natalie Nourigat's internet homes. Wish her congratulations on joining the good folks at Periscope Studios. I, of course, discovered Natalie through Emi Lennox who was also an intern at Periscope.

I'm still buzzing through Emitown's archives, soon to be thumbing along the Between Gears archives simultaneously. I get a kick out of retracing timelines, especially people's online journals, noting where their time and attention went, what phenomena they were aware of, how their rituals change over time.

Kazu Kibuishi gives us a glimpse of his layout process at illustration.org. And here is an advance look at the forthcoming Thundercats reboot. If you like that, you might like this CGHub thread about revamping the Thundercats chara designs. I really like the designs by Iconic.

This weekend I snoozed through a long playlist of movies in my backlog such as Brazil, Eastern Promises, Time Bandits, The Cotton Club, The Spy Who Loved Me, and Shock Corridor and The Expendables. I really would have liked to get out in the sunlight. I am, however, glad I got some drawing in this week. Next week I hope to post my Magic the Gathering comic. It's now technically Monday, so I leave you with my new favorite youtube cooking channel.
