Transitional Period: New Phase in my life.....

In THIS phase of my life...

The Front Doorbell Never Rings, unless it's the mayor of my city.

The entire city is gossiping about my internet celebrity

And because I don't have the money to move about freely and happily, the sky always looks like this...


You see, I live on the LEFT side of the map (south in the pic), but the place I'll be moving to is on the RIGHT side of the map (North in the pic). I visited the RIGHT side earlier today.

Odd how the two directions couldn't be more divided and hateful towards one another, which is the reason this picture EXISTS to BEGIN WITH!

Ce La Vi, I guess

Are sunnier, happier times ahead, or will the spiritual criminals continue their Reign of Darkness?

To Be Continued...

Current Inspiration: The Red Star

So, I was digging through my comics for inspirational material to feed my muse, and I found one book that was particularly interesting, that reminded me of the storytelling style I use with End Times: The Red Star. The compositional structure and storytelling structure is similar not only to my comics, but my illustrations themselves. Mine don't look as pretty as The Red Star, but the approach and flow of the competition is similar, where images jump off the page, and they're so big and colossal they can barely be contained by more than 1 to 2 or 4 panels a page. But I love the "Give yourself some personal space and don't conform to that crappy "tiny panel structure" that's all the rage in comics and manga these days. I HATE Small art, and I HATE small comics. I also really, REALLY HATE most overtly small or miniature panels. They look so crappy, like the artist never bothered to outgrow the thumbnail and storyboard stage. Needless to say I'll be buying more copies and books of this The Red Star series, in hopes to get a better sense of how it tells and narrates its stories, in an "Adult Storybook 'Only One Image or a small bit Per Page' Style".

Happy [Surrogate] Father's Day! Family. Good Dads. REAL Family That Actually CARES About You, and PROTECTS YOU

I found more than 134 of my biological relatives online. I can tell they have my DNA and genetics. A lot of their faces resemble mine: The Face, The Head Structure, The Cheekbones, The Kind and Friendly Faces, The Glasses and Astigmatism, The Hair Color, The Facial Hair, The International Heritage, and the General Likeness. To put it another way, most of them resemble me too much not to be my relatives. Apparently, I come from a family tree of good apples.


Speaking of family, John Lasseter, Katsuhiro Otomo, Stephen King, Todd McFarlane, George Lucas, Tarantino, Spielberg, and Phil Ferretti are honorary surrogate fathers to me. They helped me so much I feel like I'm related to them and was raised by them. We may not be related, but they TREAT ME LIKE a SON. So happy fathers day to my Animation, Filmmaking and Literary-Comics Mentors.

Family Tree, Photo Album (23&Me DNA Relatives)






Wow. There's like a million African-American-European relatives in my family with glasses and short or curly brunette hair.
