I sent super-comicker Jason Fischer (AKA JFish AKA Big Man Face) another bit of fan art for his ongoing Saturday morning serial, Jaephisch and the Dark Rainbow. If you don’t read it, you should, and if you want to see my take on the softer side of Jaephisch, just click on the FAN ART section below the new page.
Here is a peek. A tiny one.
Is it true that you don’t write anymore and only post stupid pictures?
Yes and no. I actually write way more than I draw, which is probably one of the reasons I haven’t been writing much here lately.
Yeah right, prove it.
That’s not a question, but this month sees a Luster Double Hhhh-wwwwhammy on the newsstands, so please go check out the following fine periodicals!
Megan Fox will lead you like a siren to my double whopper cover feature on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Since it was written, oh, back in April or so, it’s far from a critique of the movie, and is centered more on the info I got from interviewing Shia LaBeouf and VFX supervisor Scott Farrar.
Don’t stop there, though. I also wrote a sidebar for the G.I. Joe feature detailing the history of the toy line and, as is to be expected, wrote the Games column.
This issue should honestly be picked up by everyone on merit of Daryl Surat’s Fist of the North Star feature alone. No other magazine is brave or bold enough to feature so many hot pics of Kenshiro’s journey through our wasteland future.
Personally, I tackle the usual suspects here. I’m particularly into my Shigurui review, because that series is hot and needs to be seen. Also: some news, games, and reviews of Ichi the Killer and L: Change the World in the Tokyoscope section.
Go buy magazines!

I’m feeling like this is going to be a pretty productive week, one which I’m kicking off by experimenting with drawing more in Photoshop. If you want to look up the guy below in the phonebook, you’ll be able to find him listed under “Frankenstein’s Monster, Ultimate”.

And yes, Frankenstein’s Monster wears a wifebeater. I thought everyone knew that.
This weekend was an NYAFF gore explosion, starting with Friday’s premiere of Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl. That was awesome and I’ll definitely be posting a review on Otaku USA this week, but there was also a major Hungry Man meal to devour last night.
Tokyo Gore Night had Tokyo Gore Police director Yoshihiro Nishimura returning to the stage with Machine Girl director Noburo Iguchi (along with Tak Sakaguchi and VFX supervisor Tsuyoshi Kazuno) to screen all the TGP shorts, as well as Machine Girl Lite (or Shyness Machine Girl or whatever else it’s called). It was also Iguchi’s 40th birthday, which, after Sakaguchi threw darts at everyone’s asses in order to grant admittance to samurai school, led to audience spankings and gift presentation.
I’d love to caption every picture, and maybe I’ll start to now, but go ahead and check out the photo album below for some highlights.

UPDATE: Alright, friends and foes alike, I ended up captioning every photo. Give ’em a peek!
