Where the hell have I been?
For about the last two weeks I've been telling myself that I really should post to the P(ull)-List. I mean, at this point it's been over a month. I hate it when other people's blogs don't update. OK, maybe "hate" is a bit too strong. But I always wonder what's up with the person in question. Is life so bad or good (or even blah) that the person doesn't have time/feel like blogging? Aren't they worried about keeping me entertained and informed? (Because, after all, it's all about ME, right?)
The truth is, I just haven't much felt like blogging lately. Even when I've had things I could blog about.
Like the Color of Comics Exhibit currently taking place at the Bronx Community College
FEBRUARY 8- MARCH 14: THE COLOR OF COMICS!
"The Color of Comics" is a collection of images of people of color as represented through comics. Organized by Alex Simmons and Eugene Adams, these images were submitted by comic artists and publishers from around the world. The opening reception is on Friday, February 8, 2008, 5-7pm. The exhibition is at Bronx Community College in the Bliss Hall Gallery, and is free and open to the public.
For gallery viewing schedule, directions, or other information contact Alex@SimmonsHereAndNow.com or call Eugene Adams, Bronx Community College Director of Educational Outreach, at 718-249-5952.
Artwork from two projects I wrote is being exhibited. Those projects are Gotham Girls #4, with art by Jennifer Graves and J. Bone and "The Pledge" from Captain America: Red, White and Blue, with art by David Lloyd.
Or the fact that the 5-part Twilight Crusade "event" from Moonstone Books is in this month's Previews. The Twilight Crusade is 5 titles by 5 creative teams all giving a different perspective on the War between Heaven and Hell. They're all terrific books, so I encourage you to pick them all up. However, you don't have to pick them all up to enjoy whichever one(s) you are inclined to read.
My own contribution is Gabriel: Angel of Destruction, with art by Walter Figueroa. Previews order code: FEB08 3913
In the War between Heaven & Hell, one soldier has been on the front lines of the battleground since the very beginning. Now the ultimate angel of destruction has grown weary of her never-ending tour of duty & the world it’s waged on. After millenia of killing, she's begun to realize that even an eternal warrior needs more out of life than dealing death.
The order codes for the others are as follows:
Envoy: The story of a hitman on his way to Hell being drafted into hunting demons and other monsters for Heaven (FEB03 3911).
Templar: A tale of religious shock troops who struggle to protect mankind from the crossfire of the angels and demons waging the War (FEB03 3912).
Wolf: The truth behind Heaven's first rebel, who was cast out and brought the curse of lycanthropy down on humanity (FEB03 3914).
Succubus: The story of a fallen angel who feeds off men's souls as they sleep. She longs for redemption, for a chance to return to Heaven, but cannot resist the hunger that burns inside (FEB03 3915).
Cool, huh?
So, why haven't I been blogging? I think maybe I'll hold onto that for a bit. Partly to avoid overshadowing the above announcements. Partly because it'll give me a reason to blog again sooner rather than later.
