Yong Kim, creator/artist of the lovely strip, The One generously bestowed me this wonderful drawing which features Zombie Boy along with his little tiger, Ho Horang. Yong’s playful and exuberant work is so much fun!

Gather round, all you junior zombie fans and I’ll show you a spectacle unlike any you’ve ever encountered before! The one and only, stupefyingly-talented Bearman has delivered a never-before-seen work of wonderment featuring the Ju-Juvenile, which we now present for your viewing pleasure. This establishment would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank the mysterious green-coiffed colossus of talent and temperament for his service to the cause of adolescent zombies the world over! Thanks, Bearman! To see more of Bearman’s prodigious pictorials, visit Beartoons.

I received this wonderful hand-drawn sketchcard by Patrick Scullin in the mail today. Patrick is the creator of the Super Siblings, which he describes as an “all ages comic strip for geeks with kids.” The Super Siblings are 12 year old Conrad (Scout) and 10 year old Courtney (Banshee), two super-powered archenemies who happen to be brother and sister. They are the extraordinary offspring of James and Donna Clark, two ordinary parents. Originally conceived as an animated series, Patrick re-worked the concept into a print/online series which has now been online since 2008.
Thanks so much for this wonderful sketchcard art, Patrick!

Rare George McManus Photo with Fan c. early 1930s
Vintage photo of George McManus, creator of the enormously successful comic strip Bringing Up Father, with a fan, circa early 1930s. This rare photo from a private collection pictures McManus presenting a drawing to an excited fan. The timeworn photo was framed along with the pen and ink sketch of Maggie and Jiggs by McManus seen below.
