If you have gmail you've probably been notified of their updated "google sites" - it's free hosting! And since I've been thinking about getting a website again I tried it though not quite sure what to put on it yet:).  https://www.whatcomicsentertainment.com
I'm thinking...of going with what we had when we initially started. Back in the day we had webcomics on the site, not to mention additional film adaptations of comics by Steve Lafter and the late Howard Cruse. (And a co-production on an animated short with Arcana's Kade comic). A scifi anthology solicited to Diamond featuring all the biggest indie names - stuck my neck out for the only person featured who wasn't a name yet, our very own Matt Dow. And let's not forget those Cerebus TV bumpers - so many other hats worn on that venture. All in all there were many irons in the fire and I soon realized that we would needed to put a pin in our expansion plans, but hopefully our day will come...maybe...meanwhile step one let's see about getting a website again...

From article spotlighting artist Bob Boze Bell’s 20 years illustrating the Old West for True West:
Bob explains: “Way back when I was a struggling cartoonist, a Canadian cartoonist named Dave Sim (Cerebus) said, ‘Every artist has 10,000 bad drawings in him.’ This statement really hit me between the eyes. Up to that time—the mid-1970s—I was completing a sketchbook about every two years. I’m not kidding. That’s how unserious and slow I was. So, when I heard the Sim challenge, I made a vow to do six bad drawings a day until I got to the magic number of 10,000, to see if it was true. And, simply put, this simple task unlocked the door and changed my life.”

Spider-Whore

The Amicable Spider-Vark is in stores, which is the lead in to Spider-Whore, which was SUPPOSED to be the immediate sequel, but Batvark: PENIS ended up taking Spider-Whore's slot when COVID-19 threw everything up into the air.

Speaking of Spider-Vark, A Moment of Cerebus is facilitating Aardvark/Vanaheim's auctioning of a signed copy of the mis-stapled The Amicable Spider-Vark #1. Bidding is at $100 American dollars (plus shipping) to Rich Laux. I'm ending this on Tuesday.

"Cerebus in Hell? 4 Sell". With all the profits going to Aardvark-Vanaheim. This goes away Tuesday too. Then the designs will be added to: Cerebus masks and whatnots with all the money going to Dave.

If you missed the Kickstarter for Dave and Carson Grubaugh's You Don't Know Jack, there's an Indiegogo, which is going to be ending soon. So, go go Indy.

If you missed the Waverly Press Kickstarter for the Remastered Cerebus #1, limited overflow of the rewards are available at cerebusoverload.com.

And Signed copies of Vark Wars: Walt's Empire Strikes Back (Signed by Dave, Signed by Dave and me, Signed by me after I scribble out Dave's name, Pretty much available Signed only...)

Next Time: I dunno, depends on what I find/remember...
