Since it was over the phone, I unfortunately couldn’t participate. The phone bill for a conference call including Germany would have been a bit out of bounds. I’m digging this though. While I’ve worked with and talked to all three of them about the book, there are still some new aspects for me to find in here that I didn’t know before.

Interviewer Richard Caldwell did a great job. Thumbs up!

PS: I realize that I’ve had something on this blog each day for the past few days. It’s kind of weird since it’s usually as quiet as a graveyard. Well, I hereby promise to rectify that situation and eventually return you to the soothing sound of static on this channel.

Thanks Given #4 – Thomas Mauer and Christian Meesey

Letters by yours truly. In fact, I’m finishing up the book today. It’s scheduled for release on my birthday. Nice coincidence.

Give it a shot.

Killer of Demons trade. HELL YEAH!!!

Sucks that this is the only book in the current Previews. All the more reason to order, though!

One of the stories I lettered in POPGUN vol. 3. Love it to death. And it got this sweet review on thecomicaddiction.com (along with reviews for every other story in the book):

Review by Aziz Bawany

Writers: D.J. Kirkbride & Adam P. Knave
Artist: Matteo Scalera
Colorist: Antonio Campo
Letterer: Thomas Mauer
Page 153

So far this is the best story I’ve reviewed in this Anthology. While we’re all splitting duties up, Agents of WTF has to be one of the craziest, off the wall concepts to be put on a page.

While the idea of a superhero team is nothing new, and can feature a who’s-who of weird characters, Agents of WTF lives up to its name with a 300 but really 8 year old man-boy and a Native American princess who battle some of the odder creatures of earth. In this case it was an evil demon-summoning clown, and the agents of WTF used every trick in the book of WTF moments to make sure they won. Quite enjoyable and with its chaotic art style of Matteo Scalera, highly recommended.

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Excellent!)
