1.03.12

.
Sunstone, quietly and without any fanfare that I’m aware of, has made it’s archives (save the few most recent issues) available for free online.

Including the comics issue I edited! Which is primo content, I assure you.

Sunstone has just provided an incredible resource which I encourage you to check out.

Free Comic Book Day 2011 (starring Floyd Gottfredson)

5.11.11

.
So I certainly hope you celebrated Free Comic Book Day this first Saturday in May by tripping down to your local comic book shop and picking up some free magazines. If so, you may have seen the names of a couple Mormon creators (Orson Scott Card and Ethan Van Sciver — maybe others as well), [...]

Anyone aware of my reading will note some obvious names missing from this [...]

Couple-Creators: Mike and Laura Allred

Couple-Creators: Brad and Debra Teare

5.18.09

Q: Let’s start by letting you each describe your work. Mr Teare — include your paintings and woodcuts and comics and The Friend and whatever else you do; Mrs Teare, please be sure to define trompe l’eoil — just because I love it doesn’t mean all my readers have even heard of it.
Brad: I enjoy [...]
