COMICS

I'm working on some very time intensive pieces right now. No scans/photos of that for a while.

In the mean time, all-around rad dude Lee Wiesblatt runs a number of blogs, and has one in which he critiques old comics, starting with the first issue of the 1960's original run of Avengers comics. I read these like mad as a kid, and Lee and I sat around and riffed on #4 recently. It's the seminal issue which sets up the return of Captain America from his disappearance post WW2.

Here's the post:

I have five pieces on display on the second floor, in room 230, a lecture hall. It's on the second floor; take the spiral staircase in the main lobby, and turn right. The hall is across from the glass doored fibre studios. I will be in Thursday, and for parts of Friday.

Enjoy! There are a lot of really great works in print and in other departments as well this year.
