I am going see Chip Kidd and David Mazzucchelli have bit of chat in Bryant Park tomorow afternoon. What’s make it all even cooler is Joe Q of the house of Marvel will be there too. Anyone jealous, yet?

Sandman vol. 1
I originally read Sandman Series while working at my local B&N. It was the recolored four-volume Absolute hardcover edition with slipcase. I pretend to re-shelve the one set in the store everyday.

Last night...
I spent the evening listening to David Mazzuchelli discussing his passion and his art. If he were my college professor, I would have serious crush by the end of the semester. I am not too sure I don’t have one now.

My first experience with Batman was in repeats of the 1960s live-action show: Bam, Pow, Zoom in all it’s technical glory. SO I admit I was not prepared of THE KILLING JOKE, but between Alan Moore’s storytelling and Brian Bolland’s art, I was engrossed and little...

I was suppose to be reading Scott Pilgrim Vol 1, but then found a copy of Blankets by Craig Thompson ( okay, found is not the right word. When H. wasn’t looking, I “borrowed” it off her shelf) Anyone have opinion on the graphic novel? Or stealing?

more A's
So this morning I walk into the office out of the dreary rain and discovered that several awesome things had arrived in the mail.
The F&Gs of A.D.: New Orleans After the Deluge arrived this morning. It looks really amazing. I think Josh N. is going to love how it printed. What’s amazing about this project is the subtle differences between two mediums that this story exist. I was a fan...

Hi!
I live in the world of paper, pictures and words. I love the physical book, but I am getting into the digital space. So I figured why share not my own experiences working on books and graphic novels. This blog will chronicle my adventures of being a book person in the comic’s world.
So as I walk to the edge of my known universe, I am slowing learn the A,B,Cs of Comics and I am willing to...
