Back in the backyard again...

 

March 2010 was the first time I found myself in the backyard with Phineas and Ferb. 

Here in 2025, I'm now back in the backyard again as a new TV revival of Phineas and Ferb is set to begin on June 5. I have some new art that was finally approved and will show it when announced! More to come! 

 

SUITS LA was cancelled...

Well, that was short-lived! Suits LA was cancelled last week, not that many probably noticed, and I never did know if my art was seen in Samantha's office or not. I watched the first two episodes and that was a real struggle to get through. I contend that NBC should have paid me to sit through them. When episode three was to be aired I thought life was just too short to sit through another and so I didn't see the remaining episodes. I like Stephen Amell ('cause he was Green Arrow) but he sure looked weird clean-shaven. It was kind of off-putting. That and the bad writing... I almost got to a point of just contacting actress Rachelle Goulding on her Instagram and asking her direct if she saw my art on her office set. Sadly, I never got up the gumption to do that.

Oh, well...

Did any of you happen to see it on TV? If so, let me know.

SCOOBY-DOO Trading Cards: Still no release date yet...

Wanted to post an update that I have still not heard anything since Upper Deck let us know that the cards were delayed yet again on April 30th. Frustrating to be sure and I don't have anything more to share on it with Scooby fans at this point. As far as I know, it's a distribution problem. The cards were all printed and all that had to be done was inserting the original sketch cards from all the artists into the various single packs. I don't know how trading cards are distributed to outlets and stores.

In the comic book industry, I know Diamond Distribution has been a mess for a while, and as I write this, Diamond is completely done as we knew it. Things are changing for sure all over...

The Things You Find Out About By Accident...!

Don't know if any of my followers knew this, but I just found out about it a week ago! Apparently, about ten years ago, IDW got the rights to the Cartoon Network comic archives (from DC Comics/Cartoon Network) and they produced a massive 300-page omnibus trade paperback in 2015! 

The Cartoon Network All-Star Omnibus trade paperback was released in May 2015.

It's an All-Star collection featuring your favorite shows and characters from Cartoon Network! Cow & Chicken, Johnny Bravo, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Codename: Kids Next Door, The Grim Adventures of Bill and Mandy, and Ed, Edd n Eddy get their due in this reader-friendly omnibus collection.

There are FOUR comics in it that I drew: 1 Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and 3 Ed, Edd n Eddy stories... on nice paper stock too!

Needless to say, they don't tell you about this stuff (ah, that work-for-hire agreement) and I'm sure there are no royalties either! If there are, I've not gotten any in a long, long while. It would be nice if they (at least) gave you a complimentary copy if you had any work in it. 

I was able to find a mint, unused copy of it on eBay and got one for my own archives.

Thought I'd let you all know! IDW did some new comics with the Cartoon Network characters back then as well. I wish they'd (or someone) would do some new stuff again in 2025! Those old shows were great!
