Rest In Peace, Dwayne McDuffie

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011

Co-creator of the Milestone Universe and a giant in DC animation, Dwayne McDuffie has passed away.

Our condolences go out to his family and loved ones, and our sympathies are with everyone else who’s enjoyed his incredible work over the years.

Go out and pick up his new All-Star Superman animated movie, or pull out your Justice League DVDs, or dig up your old Static and Damage Control comics, or just look for Ben 10 reruns on TV, and pay tribute to a great talent the way that only geeks can.

CC! at WonderCon 2011

Sunday, March 6th, 2011

Sean and I will be at WonderCon this year. This will be our first con attending as an exhibitor together. We’ll be there for all three days of the con in the Artist Alley at table AA-140.

While we will have no merch on sale, we will have free postcards will exclusive CC! comics. We’ll also be doing what we call “Review Sketches.” The basic idea is you bring a comic to us. We’ll do a quick little review of the comic in comics form with Sean providing the words and me drawing the character.

So if you are going to the con, be sure to stop by and say hi and maybe pick up some free stuff.

CC! Character Map

I decided to map the Comic Critics characters in a similar method to the inside back cover of Scott Pilgrim Volume 3.

3 days of Comics

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011

Well WonderCon 2011 has come and gone, and I still have a smile on my face. I had a great time tabling with Sean (who came all the way up from LA), seeing the sights, buying new books, and meeting people.

Thanks to all the people who came by our table, said hi and/or got a Review sketch. Since I switched to drawing my comics digitally back in 2006, I was a little out of practice using pen and ink. But I think most of the sketches came out well.

If WC11 was your first exposure to Comic Critics, let us know if you have any questions or comments. Now back to drawing funny things about the medium we all love.
