Still battling a deadline, still working on my backup computer which slows me down a bit. Still guardedly optimistic about the Harris/Walz ticket. Still kinda amazed that there are Trump supporters who don't really care if the "Haitian Migrants eating pets" story is true or not because it makes a point they like. I'm reminded when Reagan aides more or less admitted that all his stories about Welfare Queens ripping off taxpayers were false because they didn't need evidence to be sure that kind of thing was happening all the time. Yeah, but if it happens all the time, why do you need to make up examples?
I'll tell you when I can about this new book I'm working on. It's not my big, exhaustive biography on Jack Kirby although that's nearing completion. I'm working on another book about someone who drew amazing, popular pictures.
I'm always remiss in plugging new things I have out so here's your notice that the first issue of a new Groo mini-series should now be available at your local comic book shop. It's subtitled Minstrel Melodies so as you might guess, it's full of silly poetry about silly events involving our silly barbarian. Even if you don't buy it, take a look at the store at pages 2 through 7 on which Sergio did something amazing, even for him. Three more issues follow.
