What have been your personal cartooning/comics highlights of 2013?
2013
was the year I decided to start reaching some goals. After making a
concerted effort to (keyword) start improving my work I released
something like seven or eight self published books, which led to an
offer from Pikitia Press (ever heard of em?) to put out my first book.
So that was a big tick off the list. Outside of my own work, a massive
highlight was being able to attend Comic Arts Brooklyn in New York last
month. I had the time of my life, meeting so many online friends in real
life for the first time, meeting new friends who I know I'll be staying
in contact with, and just generally being blown away by the amount of
quality alternative cartoonists working today.
What are some of the comics you've enjoyed in 2013?
'A
Drifting Life' by Yoshihiro Tatsumi changed my life. My future is
better for reading that book. 'The Cartoon Utopia' by Ron Regé Jr.
'Princess Knight' by Osamu Tezuka. 'Backyard' by Sam Alden. 'Mimi and
the Wolves' by Alabaster. 'Pen Erases Paper' by Sam Wallman. 'Tender
Tinder' by Jeremy Sorese. 'Life Zone' by Simon Hanselmann. 'Black
Pillars' by Andrew White. 'Windowpanes 1 and 2' by Joe Kessler.
What is something non-comics that you have enjoyed in 2013?
Honestly, 2013 was pretty 'comics' for me...is that sad?
What are you looking forward to in 2014?
