I’m in Tuscany, trying to BE COOL ABOUT IT, for one of my very favorite shows in the entire world: Lucca Comics and Games. The moment I was dropped off at my magnificent hotel, I made a bee-line for Pizza Da Felice – absolutely one of the most magnificent slices I’ve ever had. I forget […]

Lucky Lucca by which I mean LUCKY ME! I’m typing this over breakfast, at the KLM lounge in Schipol airport, outside of Amsterdam. My traveling companion is having a lager, apparently. I believe I’ll stick with the bloody Mary’s. Actually, forget the bloody Mary. Campari and Orange looks just like a delightful Mango smoothie, AND NOBODY WILL JUDGE […]

If you’re at Lucca this week, in Italy…here’s my signing schedule. The “Area Performance” is live painting (where I’ll be coming up with something for the charity auction – more Boobies, perhaps?) I’m not sure what I’ll be yakking about, yet, for the Sunday talk, but I’m sure it’ll be, um, riveting: Thursday. 11.00-12.00: Autographs […]

Panelists will discuss various media. Cartooning as Art […]
