I have been throwing more old stuff up on Flickr while vainly searching old backup CDs for various things.

Original sketch from the Spider-Man Doctors children's book I illustrated in 2001:



And now, I have a request! I used to have a little comic on my site called "Glorious You". It was drawn long long ago in August of The Year 2000. It's not like it was that good, but I like to preserve these things.

Edit: Okay, taken care of. Glorious You is now restored on my website. Thank you.

Wizard did a spread on Scott Pilgrim as their "Indie of the Year". Woooooo! I used to read Wizard when I was about 14. I had a year or two worth of them back in the mid-90s. In fact, I know Wizard was the first place I ever saw stuff like Chris Ware, and some of my earliest information about manga came from there too. So, that's nice. I mean, mainly it was Joe Madureira and hilarious captions and photos of action figures, etc. I'm curious to see what kind of sophomoric nonsense they spewed about Scott P., so does anyone have a copy of the issue (#183) that they could scan for me?

CONTENT! Here is a little Salamander Dream comic I did last year (in my sketchbook). Click to bigg up.


Scott 4 update: I feel okay about the drawings currently. Drawing these things is like a huge existential dilemma. I cannot explain the rollercoaster of emotions that one goes through while drawing an extremely long graphic novel. This book will be very long, at least a dozen pages longer than book 2, and possibly another dozen longer than that. I'm trying to trim it a bit as I draw, but the script was definitely quite long. I don't want to turn into Harry Potter over here; I'm going to try to keep each book around the 200-page mark. I'm making a conservative estimate that the book will come out next summer. (I wonder if the last Harry Potter will come out next summer?!?!?)

I forgot about this and just found it on my computer. An early version of what became the FREE SCOTT PILGRIM story was originally going to be a minicomic called SCOTT PILGRIM 2.5, and this is the only thing I ever finished of it (the cover).

I have my computer back but i don't really have anything new to report. I'm just working on Scott P. 4 and playing some Final Fantasy on the side. My new computer is pretty nice. It can play Half-Life 2: Lost Coast and make it so it actually looks good.

One of the things i'm trying to do on the new computer is get used to using iTunes, with the help of Mr Kanye West.

This is a photo i took the other day when Hope and i were out playing in Annapolis Royal, NS.

Uploaded this earlier: some of the first thumbnails from Scott Pilgrim Vol 1.



Another thing: I posted this script excerpt (from Scott Pilgrim Vol 1) in the comments of the Q&A thread earlier, and it got 400+ views just from that! So here it is for the rest of you.
