Afternoon coffee with the new AWA U&I tpb I lettered.

Well, that's one way to end the year! Hooboy! Excited to unbox this thing, I wish it had arrived after the new year. Either way, I'm counting as a 2025 release since I won't review till then, and my Best Of 2024 comes out tomorrow night. Check my Primer for my criteria: youtu.be/Ze5SxAoMySU?...

Loved the @mikemignola.bsky.social documentary Drawing Monsters from the Nacelle Company (who I recently did some toy reviews for). A couple of things I would have loved for it to touch was his work on both Fafred & the Grey Mouser & Dracula. I always saw those tonally as Hellboy adjacent.

Been waiting for almost 2 years and then completely missed Crunchyroll uploaded it a month and a half ago...!

Thanks to Ultrazilla Jr. for the actual alert. We will be watching it this week!

Good mini series that just wrapped from AWA that I lettered. Look out for the TPB.

Shin Nessie showed up this week on Dandadan and now I'm gonna need a SHMA.

Finally! The NECA SDCC Exclusive TMNT The First Turtles set arrived!

*If you are waiting for these, please note that your old tracking may be wrong, and a new tracking number may not be sent. This arrived with no warning, and indeed, that old tracking number from Aug still says preshipment.

A couple of weeks ago, Ultrazilla Jr. and I went to see the Mike Mignola show here in NYC (on the last day). It was fantastic. We had a pretty full gallery day, awesome day.

While I love going to Comic and Toy cons, this weekend, my wife led the way to an Artist Supplies Fair at the iconic Salmagundi Club in NYC. Being a former art store (x2) manager, it was cool to kinda reconnect with this scene. Ultrazilla Jr. also asked a ton of questions, making a lot of days.
