I'm here to plug my latest coloring project: Atomic Robo, written by Brian Clevinger and illustrated by Scott Wegener. “Atomic Robo is about a robot scientist who explores the boundaries of knowledge and punches the monsters he finds along the way,” It's really fun six issue mini-series coming out his fall from Red 5 Comics. I hope you'll check it out. You can find out everything you ever wanted to know (including some peeks at the art), and possibly more, here: http://www.myspace.com/atomic_robo Or you can read what Robo himself has to say here: http://www.mechapolis.com/ And be sure to check this out; it makes me sound really important! http://www.red5comics.com/?p=40

I guess after 87 years of adventures, a robot can get philosophical. And who doesn't love Tesla - or his projects?

I'll check for it when Cameron and co. update the DCBS site for July! In fact, I'm going to see if I can put it on my pulls now... edit-- I gotta wait until I actually order it, it appears.

Ah. It's not available until the August Previews. Still hitting stores in October, though. Oeming's cover looks nice, and HEY! You got a cover credit! Is there any chance of further series if this does well?

Congrats on the cover credit! That's awesome! And the announcement at Red5 is terrific also. Sounds like they realize how lucky they are to have the best colorist in the business on their book.

Thanks, I'm thrilled with that! It's a first for me. I might have to frame it. It was actually the publishers decision; I guess our mutual Star Wars affiliation is paying off for me. But the creator (Brian Clevinger) assured me he is happy to share credit, so that's really cool. As far as additional issues go, I haven't really discussed that with them, but I would assume they'll want to continue if it's successful. So make sure you buy 'em! (please)

Well since they had a 3X and since I just happened to have $25 sitting in my PayPal account, I just ordered a shirt. I figure I should be able to get into a 3X in another couple of months. At least no later than Christmas. Like Pov I got the khaki.

Yeah, those were the images I used-- I flipped Robo and reversed the black and white. I might go back and forth tween yours and mine as my wallpaper...
