One more workshop to announce in 2024… Boston, MA! This is probably the last one I will be scheduling in 2024. My Oct-Dec is full of personal travel and events… so it’s unlikley I will be finding time to do any other workshops beyond the ones I have already scheduled for this year. But I still have spots available in Austin, Atlanta, Seattle, Chicago and Phoenix in 2024. READ MORE
Clicky to Embiggen… Here we go with another moronic MAD Monday look back at my work for MAD Magazine! This week we get away from the world of movie and TV parodies when we look back at the art for a political piece called “The Last 100 Days of the Obama Presidency”, written by Jeff Kruse and Kenny Keil, and first appearing in MAD #542, Dec 2016.

Jeff started writing for MAD just a few years before I started drawing for them, and was pretty prolific, doing both full articles… READ MORE

They became poor and lived in a Chicago housing… READ MORE
Welcome to another edition of Monday MADness, where we continue on our seemingly endless trek through my work at MAD Magazine. This week it’s yet another spoof of a show targeted at that huge MAD-loving demographic, HGTV viewers! Yes, I am still scratching my head over why we did a parody of a show like “Fixer Uppers” in 2016 when we ignored huge hits like “NCIS”, “Blue Bloods”, “Criminal Minds”, “Empire” and “The Blacklist”. However we can’t complain about MAD‘s MADdset writer Dick DeBartolo‘s damn funny script for this one… and frankly I didn’t mind ridiculing Chip and Joanna Gaines‘s show. We did it all… READ MORE
Geek Radio Daily is a long running Twitch/YouTube/Podcast show that is, oddly, not daily but nonetheless very entertaining. Hosts “The Wonderful Billy Flynn”, “Podcasting’s Rich Sigfrit” and “Flynnstress” (missing was “Cinemistress aka Carol the Cat” had their 308th episode last night and appearing as guests were “Devilish Desmond Devlin” and “Contagious Tom Richmond” (I have a really bad cold) discussing CLAPTRAP and other things from the Geekosphere.
