Best Comic Ad Ever

Found on the excellent blog, Trick Coin.

Tony Millionaire in Boston, 1989

How in the name of God this unbelievable gem is on Youtube is nearly unfathomable. Millionaire is my favorite newspaper strip cartoonist, and his creation, Maakies, is a piece of some of the almost nonexistant excellent contemporary weekly comic strips. In the video it's pretty obvious he's drunk off his ass.

Soon-ish

I will delete my first blog (after posting the drawings I put there on this one), and begin to post my drawings and sculpture here. My first blog is dead already and I need to dispose of the corpse.

Also, I've developed an interest in pinstriping.

(The above is not mine. I could not pinstripe this well if my life depended on it).

To laugh all our problems away, I command you to watch this video of wrestler, David Schultz, at home:

Johnny Ryan's comic change

I am a big fan of Johnny Ryan, and noticed that he's dramatically changed the way he does his comics. I have yet to decide if this is good or bad. It depends on if he's going to do this style exclusively from now on, or will do some of his old style comics too. Look for example, this is one of the pages with his well-known brand of humor, which he's developed since he began making comics:



And here's his most recent comic (there've been several others, in a very similar style, he made recently):









What do you think?

Sorry for such long delays in posts.

I'll try to post more often. Time slips up on you and this blog isn't really a main priority for me, so I neglect it sometimes. And merry Christmas.

Oh, and since I try to post at least one image or video, here's a great anti-nazi cartoon.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Now hear this Thanksgiving prayer by William Burroughs:

Interview me!

That's right! Ask me questions, stupid or relevent! All are welcome! Why do I want to move to Holland? Why did I start this stupid blog? Just ask me somethin' in the comments section! Go on!

Videos of artists

Painters, cartoonists, etc. become so associated with their work that when people see their stuff, they often have preconceived images in their heads of how the artist looks and sounds and behaves. They're often surprised when and if they see and hear the artist, because almost always the contrived image is completely different from the actual person. There's just something about videos of artist that I like.

Jim Woodring:


One of the Youtube commentors sez Jim Woodring sounds like "a sage". I don't know what that means, but OK.

Robert Crumb:


I can scarcely think of things more entertaining than the great Crumb being interviewed by sleazy old Al Goldstein (above).



Harvey Kurtzman and Jack Davis:


Stan Lee gets on my nerves and Harvey's Parkinson's-disease-stricken voice saddens me, but the video is very interesting.

Hans Rickheit:


My newest fave, the regretfully underrated Hans Rickheit. I love his work.

Tony Millionaire in a video where he plays God!:



Mike Diana and Susie Morbid:


Infamous cartoonist and girlfriend.

A video by Makemebad35 that has nothing to do with cartoonists! HOOHAH!!
