an artist friend of mine, Diana Greenhalgh from Ronin Studios, a[link]
is in a bit of a jam... her travel plans changed and now she's stuck in Chicago
with no place to stay... if anyone going has any bed/couch or floor
space that they would find it in their heart to let Diana sleep on it
would be very much appreciated.

She's a good kid and I hate to see her stuck.

thanks!

For someone so young, Michael's artwork had a profound influence on the industry over the past decade. My condolences go out to his loved ones. He will be missed.

John is now having a "Store Closing Everything Must Go!!" clearance sale....

I know the economy sucks and we all have our own financial situations to worry about... but if anyone out here could scrounge a few bucks from under the sofa cushions, drop by his website and order a couple of comics or action figures or whatever... it won't save his store but it might help ease the burden just a bit....

thanks!

As well as being an incredibly talented artist, he was the consummate gentleman. Mike took the time to sign every book, shake every hand and chat with every fan who came by. My deepest condolences go out to his family and those who knew him well. He will be missed.

I figured I'd mention somethings I want to accomplish in '06.

The main thing is get something published! I know there are a ton of people who probably say that every year but I really want to get something out there! I've self published a few things and that's great but there is a certain amount of satisfaction about a publisher printing your work that I've been lacking. I've been close and I've got a small project in the works with Dawid that may lead to something but we'll see.

we'll just have to see. ]]> ~portalcomics http://portalcomics.deviantart.com/journal/7642535/ http://portalcomics.deviantart.com/journal/7642535/ Wed, 18 Jan 2006 18:50:32 PST
BUY BOTS!!!!

Many people out there in internet-land have heard about BOTS, but in case you haven't....BOTS is a not-for-profit artbook that was created to promote awareness about childhood autism and raise money for the Autism Society of America. The inspiration for BOTS is my son Ben who just turned 5. Last year we found out that he was autistic, so I decided I wanted to do something to try to help other families like ourselves who were dealing with autism. The book has contributions from nearly 100 artists, including Tim Sale, Kevin Conrad, Sanford Greene, Craig Rousseau, Chris Lie, Rantz, Dawid Strauss and many, many, many more. Go by our website at:
