Back to the comics

My first comic convention of the year is scheduled to be April 7th in Charlotte, NC.  It's Rick Fortenberry's show and that is always a great one.  They moved to a new spot for the last show of his I went to and I really liked it.  Its been eating at me that I haven't done a comic show yet this year, so it will be great to get to do one.  I will have issue 9 and some new art and prints.  I hope to do more soon and get ready for Heroescon which I am eager to get back to.

Also doing work on some other comics projects before diving into issue 10.  And already doing some planning for 11.  It feels like the story is gaining momentum and taking me along with it.

Listen and vote who wins this first ANIMATED BATTLE OF THE BANDS!


Ahh, the stuff that makes me happy.

And now for something completely different.


Check out a new page on Facebook I started for an Animated Battle of the Bands.  Just weirdness that takes up room in my head, now to make room for more comics.
 
 
I feel these selections give a lot to choose from, it is heavy to the 60s and 70s when a lot of cartoons made their characters a band for no good reason but there are newer groups in there as well for a balance list.  If you feel that a worthy band (or musical number, some are just singers from a particular episode) is left off the list, then post them, and if there is enough interest they can be added to the Wildcard Division or the Wildcard Multiplication.

 Please include a link to a song (not a theme song, one in the actual story... I love "Hong Kong Phooey, number 1 superguy" as much as the next guy, but that will be a different vote for another time).  A link to a song is very important, some bands were not included because I couldn't find anything other than the theme song, or they were moved to the Wildcard Division.

 Also please stick to examples where the characters involved are the band, simply having songs playing in the background of a chase scene are not eligible, a la Scooby Doo (love Scooby, and they were good songs, but again it is not what we are going for).
