An auction you may be interested in...

...if you have deep pockets. A friend of mine has a comic book up for sale on eBay. Please take a look and if you're interested, there is a Buy it Now button. If you are particularly well off and are a fan of Superman, I'd suggest you give it some serious thought. Because an Action Comics #1 in this condition doesn't show up every day...

Now of the three copies of this particular comic book that I've seen in my entire life, this one honestly is the one in the best condition.

With respect, he does not. Also, it's David Cook, not Cooke.

Here are some more with commentary:

Not to be found here, and I myself want to remain spoiler free (HA!). I assume you mean new Doctor Who episode titles of course.

I may have brought this up before - but here's a good Wikipedia article on the subject.

green lantern coloring pages

You, fine human...whomever you are...rock. Sadly, I have nothing digital to share with you. Good luck in searching. May I recommend looking for black and white reprints of older material to scan and color? Not necessarily the new Showcase trades, because that would involve you having to slice the book up to put the pages onto the scanner, but I one found some older UK reprints of DC material that was still in magazine form that was easily scanned for work in Photoshop. In the Diamond Previews catalog, DC used to occasionally run some preview pages in black and white as well that was suitable for scanning and coloring in Photoshop. However, they really haven't done that in ages.

Another idea, if you aren't married to the concept of coloring Green Lantern pages, and I understand if you are, would be to find some comics that were originally printed in black and white. I've done some Steve Rude Nexus material a while back for fun and non-commercial use and it turned out OK at least. I may post it up here if I can find the original Photoshop files to convert to .jpg. If you are looking for pages to color for samples to show to editors, I would strongly suggest looking for a variety of styles of art and types of characters to do anyway to show off flexibility. If you are angling for a particular gig - say, Green Lantern, then try to find something similar. Again, Nexus features lots of outer space action with cool alien designs, and the art is top notch!

Time to breathe...

Because for the past week or two, I haven't been able to breathe at all. Nothing major. Really. Just a horrible, horrible, horrible chest cold. In April. Lovely. Was sent home after an hour and a half last Thursday, stayed home on Friday and by Sunday was basically recovered enough for work again the next day. Just how I've always wanted to spend a long weekend...oh well... But while I was technically a-ok for work last week, I still had some gunk in the lungs that I was coughing up (and I do apologize for the rather horrible word-picture there) that finally subsided last night and this morning. I do anticipate the little things in life like enjoying food again.

Meanwhile, I have been meaning to write something new in here since it again has been a while. But it all seemed like the fever dreams of last Thursday and Friday where I would see say an ad on television and it just not making sense. Like say one of the new ads for what appears to be a clothing line at JC Penney. In one of the ad segments, it appears to be a young girl's birthday party and the adults are encouraging her to put her booted foot through the center of her cake. I've been to several birthday parties for children and I have never seen this sort of behavior. If it's real, it must be some sort of weird mid-western thing. I would like to think that it isn't.

The next ad that struck me was from Loews where an employee assists what appears to be a very well rendered grizzly bear with shopping for home improvement goods to build a deck and add a barbecue. I understand the punchline had something to do with people coming out of hibernation from the winter, and thus the use of a bear (and it only makes the slightest bit of sense, really), but I'd expect that your average employee of Loews isn't going to be calmly discussing the advantages of specific models of barbecue to a grizzly bear that outweighs him at least 4 to 1, but instead will be fleeing in the other direction yelling at everyone to watch out - there's a grizzly bear on the loose in the store.

But I could be mistaken.
