About Me |
|
| I write and draw comic books and that's pretty much the extent of it. I listen to music and write stories and draw and monkey around with crap all day long. | |
My Interests |
|
| Comic books, original art and all related junk. I buy lots of old comics and plenty of new ones. I can't get enough of Jack Kirby, Herb Trimpe, Gil Kane and Walter Simonson. | |
I'd like to meet:Most anybody, really. I don't really idolize folks like movie stars and whatnot but if you want to shoot the breeze about whatever--that's fine by me. |
|
Music:Really--a lot of stuff. As a youngster I was really into Elton John and the Beatles. I still like those guys but you're as likely to hear me listening to Fountains of Wayne, Aimee Mann, the Beautiful South, Elvis Costello, Barenaked Ladies, Counting Crows, Army of Lovers, the Knack, the Monkees or any of hundreds of others from the big band era to now. Einstein's Sister is a big favorite. If you can find one of their CDs snap it up! These guys are awesome! |
|
Movies:I like movies--I like Groundhog Day and Ghostbusters and Star Wars and Summer of '42 and others plenty--but I'm not a huge movie guy. I'd rather read a good comic book for the most part. |
|
Television:I don't watch a lot of TV. |
|
Books:The Oz series was a big favorite but I most often read non-fiction. Most often left-wing rants that support my world view. |
|
Heroes:Savage Dragon, of course! |
|
