"The Secret Wars of Buddy Saunders"

Hi, Everybody!

Friend to the Blog, James Pulitzer-Smith found:


It's something I had never seen. It's from WAP (Words And Pictures) which was a private newsletter, jointly run by Steve Gerber, Steven Grant and Frank Miller.

And you see more about all the Puma Blues controversy by clicking the link. (And scrolling like a MoFo...)

Thanks for leaving stuff laying around unattended James!

The Help Out Bill Messner-Loebs Go Fund Me, or buy Rodney Schroeter's book with proceeds going to Bill. OR(!) you could buy Bill's book with the Dave backcover. I have discovered links:
Wanderland (Paperback but slightly more expensive...I dunno why...)
The site offers UK shipping, so PRESUMEABLY it's printed and shipped there(?).
And Journey Complete:
And if you wanna see how the book looks in Real Time...

Zipper calls in a favor:
Hi Matt!

I stopped in a JAF comics this afternoon after work and had nice conversation with John. John is the owner of JAF Comics and publisher of Dreamscape Comics. He asked me for a favor. So, I'm asking if you for a favor. Can you please kindly promote John's new book, Lady Savage, through the Rigamarole. It's live on Kickstarter now and need a little push to get the book fully funded. Most of the creative team has gone to the Joe Kubert School of Art.

Thank you, Matt!

(It's set in 1977, will a certain obscure Canadian cartoon aardvark make a cameo? (No. Elvis died in August. Cerebus wasn't published until December. Any appearance in the flick would be an anachronism that would ruin the movie for everybody. EVERYBODY!).) Here's the first trailer
