I'm one of the invited guests at the San Diego comic con in 2008. We hope to release The Amazing Remarkable Mr. Leotard at the event. We're still doing the final clean up on the book and arriving at a satisfactory cover. I personally was happy with the one before the one before the one we're on now.

I should have said this in my glossary the other day:

Sequential art: Saying that "all sequential art is comics" is like saying the world is a suburb of Brooklyn; and saying it with a Brooklyn accent.

Weekly gibberish dept.
pair these:

Go to any party in the world. Have the DJ ask "where Brooklyn at?". Loud cheers will always be heard.

You're pretty wrong on this Mr. Campbell.
