  1. Some of you might remember these from back in the day -- the much sought-after Get Out of Comics, Free card: ow.ly/bjWoO
  2. So, basically, none of you are really out to help me get a new right arm. It's just jokes with you people. Okay, fine. Be that way. #jerks
  3. @rynostwats No disrespect to the victim, but no thanks. That's a second-rate limb, it didn't help the previous owner any. Not interested.
  4. I've actually voted against myself a few times in the past. RT @crimespreejon: if you're not willing to vote for you why would anyone else?
  5. RT @scorriganus: @evandorkin I saw some assholes on etsy, but I didnt really need any more.
  6. I really need a new right arm. I looked on eBay. No right arms. A left ankle and some earlobes, but no right arms. This is BULLSHIT.
  7. Voted in the Eisners today. 3 write-ins, 3 abstains. Voted for what I read and liked, friends, overlooked creators and my own damned self.
  8. @SteveBedigian I try to do everything I can by hand because a) it's what I know b) I (perhaps stupidly) like doing it that way and c) OCD.
  9. @SteveBedigian I draw on paper. If it's for print, @colorkitten scans/cleans it, fixes mistakes too involved for me to fix by hand, colors.
  10. My hair's about dry so now I am off for a while. Gotta pay off the rest of the car repair bill. Literally and figuratively.
  11. @dustinharbin Hey, that wasn't meant to spark anything, sorry if it rankled.
  12. @KenofGhastria They don't have a deep bench when it comes that stuff, do they? It isn't a soap, you're not hiring actors, work a little.
  13. @SteveBedigian I find that cloning a panel over & over can deaden the pg & bring reader attention to the panels rather than the sequence.
  14. @SteveBedigian I usually prefer to redraw static panels/BGs unless a cloned panel works towards the joke or I'm super-pressed for time.
  15. @SteveBedigian That's a case of my drawing one panel as a template, then changing the figures/details for Sarah to compile in Photoshop.
  16. @Ferg_Nice @patrickdarcy I wasn't aware of McFarlane's work in 1985 (was anybody?). It's actually just shades of bad amateur fanboy.
  17. That's enough tweeting for now. More than enough. Afternoon, all.
  18. @SecretHQTweets I expected to dislike Ratatouille but I enjoyed what we saw. It does seem to work as the anti-Desperaux in many ways.
  19. @SecretHQTweets We watched 1/2 of Ratatouille a while back but our daughter hated the evil chef & made us turn it off. We'll try again.
