Dear Students,

Here are a few pictures I’ve been meaning to post. Matty G and I, the signing of books before our presentation at BAM and us in younger days, and then us right now! And a poster for an event we did together exactly thirty years earlier.

We met in college. We both drew comics to crack each other up. This is what you all are doing right now, especially those of you who are in Comics Club and come to open studio hours to work together.  This is exactly where and how the sorts of friendships that make things happen are formed.

The only reason any of this happened for MG and I is because we drew pictures, we told stories, we dug each other’s work and we spurred each other on.  You are in the right place, right now.  Come to open studio hours. Look into the funky bucket of tomorrow through the eyeball of yesterday during Comics Club work sessions!

Can you dig it?

I KNEW that you could!
