What have been your personal cartooning/comics highlights of 2013?
I
think my highlight of 2013 was putting together the new round of the
Minicomic of the Month Club - the response to that has been great - we
got a whole bunch of new subscribers on, and a lot of those I think from
people that aren't normally "comics people". Even having a goofy
picture of me in the paper didn't take the shine off.
Also getting up to Sydney for the Graphic festival - especially seeing people get up and perform their work as part of the Radio With Pictures show, that was a Good Time.
What are some of the comics/cartoonists you've enjoyed in 2013?
I'm
pretty terrible at remembering when things come out, so this are really
just things I can vaguely remember from recently. Sorry to everyone who
made something I really liked that I can't see from my desk.
I've
been really enjoying getting my Oily subscription in the mail, that's
always a fun envelope to see. There was one from Nick Drnaso I liked,
and Real Rap was funny. Also Pete Toms and Connor Willumsen. And I
got some stuff from Peow studios in Sweden, some real nice printmakerly
stuff with some spaceships. I keep picking up these Joe Lambert minis I
have. Um. *looks at tumblr* Alex Schubert. Pat Grant. Ben Juers.
Domitille Collardey. Lisa Hanawalt. Neil Sanders' weird dudes on
Instagram. I liked Blood & Thunder as a thing, loved Lachlan Conn's
piece in it. Steven Weissman. David King. Sams Wallman and Alden
What is something non-comics that you have enjoyed in 2013?
I got a new dayjob, but there's no interesting story there. Also I'm enjoying watching my kid play in U10s basketball waaay more than I thought I would.
What are you looking forward to in 2014?
