Don’t expect much to be going on this year for Halloween, sorry to say, but I’m working up some sketches for an idea that I hope works out on Saturday.

Beatles for Cel
The Beatles cartoons produced for TV in the 60’s don’t have a good reputation, but producer Al Brodax later redeemed himself with Yellow Submarine. The TV cartoons found their way to the Internet Archive a year ago, and they’re still there.

McKean’s Jack Odyssey
Before he was Charles McGill, before he was David St. Hubbins, and before he was Lenny Kosnowski, Michael McKean was a kid with a drawing of himself by legendary cartoonist Jack Davis.
Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. Lot of years… Thought I'd share a pic of the 10 year old me, by the great Jack Davis. pic.twitter.com/Pe3pLh1sxk

Pencil Pushing
I’m struggling to get enough done around the house to justify to myself sitting at the drawing board for more than a few minutes at a time. Until then I’ll stick with a pencil, because ink is forever.
Ireland in Ohio
Whenever this blasted pandemic has abated enough to make plane travel sufficiently safe, I will visit the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum in Columbus, Ohio. I haven’t been to Columbus since giving a technical talk at the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) many, many years ago.
Until I can get to the museum, this virtual tour will have to suffice. I recommend watching it all the way through. One of today’s best single panel cartoonists, Hilary Price, makes an appearance, as does the voice of a surprise special commentator. I know that one of my Facebook friends knows him, but I’ve never before heard him speak.
