I got an email from Roy Thomas recently asking for my address so that he could send me a hardcover copy of Alter Ego issue #172. Turns out my Alcala page was used for an article about the great Alfredo Alcala. If that wasn't sweet enough my name is in the Special Thanks section as well as next to the image of my page as a "scan courtesy of Michael Diaz". See the images here: Alcala

Just had this framed recently. I don't have a lot of wall space in my Mancave so I had to take a piece down to put this up. Check it out on the extra pics. You can also see what is behind the stat in the extra pics.Cavewoman framed

As some of you may know for the past few years I've been commissioning artists to do a finished pencil homage of my Dave Stevens prelim. My latest is by Joe Matt. Joe writes and draws the autobiographical comic "Peep Show". Joe really went outside the lines with his interpretation. Have a look. Matt

Any manga recommendations for someone who has watched a ton of anime but read very little manga?
Also, any recommendations on where to find manga OA and where to set expectations? There are many Japanese artists and properties I'd love to have examples from, but I've found they're essentially impossible to acquire due to cultural etiquette in the country around art.
They just don't sell their art so don't hold you breath. I recommend "One Punch Man", "A Silent Voice", "Gigant", "Blame!", "Gyo" (or anything by Junji Ito), "Downfall", "One Piece", "Food Wars Shokugeki No Soma", and just for fun "Jaco The Galactic Patrolman".

Keeping Sturgeon's Law ("90% of everything is ...") in mind, there's plenty of great work both in Marvel/DC and outside it in the last decade. I'm just scratching the surface but am turning up stuff all the time that I enjoy. Some recent reads, some of which involve men in tights:
Marvel: Aja/Fraction on Hawkeye (2015). King/Walta on The Vision (2015). Bendis/Mack on Cover (2018). North/Henderson on Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (2015-2018). Wilson/Alphona on Ms. Marvel (2014-2018).
DC: Morrison on Multiversity (2018). King/Gerads on Sheriff of Babylon (2015) and Mister Miracle (2017). Johns/Frank on Doomsday Clock (2019).
Other: Vaughan/Staples on Saga (2012 onward). Hickman/Pitarra on The Manhattan Projects (2012-2015). Luna/Luna on Alex + Ada (2013-2015). Kirkman/Adlard on The Walking Dead (2003-2019). Byrne on X-Men:Elsewhere (2019 onward).
I'm sure there's good manga out there too, but it's so overwhelming that I wouldn't know where to start. I did read Gantz, which was interesting but went off the rails at the end. Anybody have a recommendation for something that's not 10,000 pages long?
Start by reading "One Punch Man" or watch the anime. It it the best superhero story I've read in decades.

I've been reading a lot of Manga because I just can't read Marvel and DC anymore. Anyone else out there doing the same? Here are some original pieces I purchased recently. Have a look. Manga

How much do the other WW head shots go for? I'm definitely not the best to advise on the Timm market, but my gut reaction is it would price at just above the typical head shot. I would not expect the shading to elevate it to a higher tier, but rather would differentiate the piece against similar pieces in the same tier.
Batman and Harley sell for $600 but he is famous for those characters.

At first glance it doesn't seem like a big deal. He's done a WW head shot dozens of times but this one has shading. He almost never does shading on any of his head shots. Batman and Harley are going for over $600. What do you think I could ask for this? Timm

I've left emails for over a year but I get no reply. Can anyone help me get in touch with Fred Hembeck?

Until I saw Malvin's hint I thought Frank was1) harvesting poppies, 2) cooking heroin, 3) dozing, 4) going out for more poppies.
WOW! That actually is a great interpretation.

Buraddorun wins the no-prize prize. Great powers of observation. The Watcher avatar is well deserved.

This completes my Woodring commission theme. Can you figure out what binds the four pieces together? It has nothing to do with the characters themselves. (No help from Brian, Alex, Sean or Malvin). Woodring commissions

I have two pages from an issue of a WWBN that date back to the seventies. One page has the word balloons pasted on while the other has them drawn into the art. How does that happen?

Was thrilled to get this three panel Perlin page from my favorite WWBN comic. Have a look WWBN

Newest addition to Dave Stevens homage
in Original Comic Art
Posted
This is my first piece of the new year for my Dave Stevens homage quest. This artist did exactly what I'd hoped to receive when he took on this commission. He had fun and went in a whole new direction. Aurora
