Green Toast & SHAZAM!

Here's the latest  The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good! The theme for the week is a mash-up of children's picture books and comic book characters! I chose to pay tribute to this Dr. Seuss classic because the idea struck me like lightning once I read the sweet suggestion. Check out an embiggened version of my piece HERE . I hope y'all digs! Peace.

From mic? To Mike

Have you read/heard about what happened to Mike Meyer? It's really some messed up stuff. Read about it HERE . So this week, The Line It Is Drawn , over at Comics Should Be Good , dedicated our Superman pieces to Super Mike hoping that we can cheer him up in any small way. Check out our drawings HERE . If you'd also like to send any Superman-related notes, cards, or art to Mike Meyer, there's a mailing address in Greg Hatcher's article . Scumbags suck. Nice people rock. UPDATE:  They caught the fiend that messed with Super Mike! And what a sleazy crook. Read about it HERE   and HERE . Justice prevails! Peace.

Peace.

Review: JUSTICE LEAGUE #1

I thought Green Lantern was Black? Whoever he is, I was very pleased to see his cocky butt get knocked out towards the end. Story-wise, it's very decompressed only showcasing the first meeting of 2 Justice League members, with cameos of 2 other members. The villain? One parademon. This is just NOT how I like my Jim Lee comics. Say what you will about Jeph Loeb now, but he knew how to work to his artist's strengths... or at least when it came to Jim Lee when they collaborated on BATMAN: HUSH .
