My friend Maura McHugh‘s new Hellboy-universe comic Witchfinder launched this week. There was a signing today at the local comic shop, where I had the following conversation with a friend: Him: Reading any good comics? Me: I’m really reading more *about* comics than actual comics these days. Him: Oh, you mean like academic journals? Me: Un, no, I mean like Tumblr… *laughs* Yes, well, at least I’m honest. In other comics news, Leah sent my script back with ridiculously helpful commentary which amounted to “Good story, great pacing, great page…

scripting
Me: I have finished a comic script, the first in ages. If I am brave and smart, now I will send it to Leah Moore* for commentary. Leah: Dooooooooooo eeet! Me: But what if it’s AWFUL?

Highly, highly recommended. Working my way through Veronica Mars. I’m…
