Lionel's first and Last bit of press.

Received these in the mail Friday, amazing stuff. Bellow is a two page center spread from the Toronto Star, a hagiography run a few months after my father died in 79 - it came out just after my 9th birthday as i recall. Bellow that is a clip from a community paper from the neighborhood in Don Mills he lived in as a kid.

Been talking to a lit rep about the bio project, suggested approaching it as a memoir and seems pretty into it. More on Lionel here....

New art: Dream Life and Widows

Some stuff i've been working on. These are for Dream Life.





And the first two from a story by Rantz called Widows.

I'm being torrented!

We've been shanghaied by the bay!

Rather flattering really.

So, yeah, you can find the entire Sea of Red series including my first 4 issues amongst the comic torrents now.

Hey, obviously i'd prefer it if people paid to read my books, but on the other hand i've long felt one of the best ways to get people to try stuff is through freebies. In any case, if you want to check it out before buying, for sure I'm all for it. I tend to think/hope those that will want a hard copy will.

If you feel inclined to help support at least one of the artists involved in creating Sea of Red, here's my hat tipped, shoot me whatever you feel inclined to via pay pal. I'd be much obliged guv'.
