American Comic book artist Tillie Walden made this great illustration in her sketchbook, anouncing the end of Summer and the beginning of Autumn. I absolutely love it.

Recently I made a video about the first time I came across Todd McFarlane’s Spider-Man art. This is a follow-up video in which we take a closer look at some of his early, original art. We see covers from his Amazing Spider-Man run, Incredible Hulk en even some Batman. Enjoy!

Comic book artist and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola supports presidential candidate Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris. Mignola shows his support by drawing his character Hellboy wearing a Biden/Harris T-Shirt. What are your thoughts about that?

When I started collecting comics as a ten year old, Todd McFarlane started as the artist on Amazing Spider-Man. His dynamic art style made a real impact on me. And Mary Jane Watson-Parker had never looked so good.
In Marvel Superheroes Secret Wars, writer Jim Shooter gives the readers what they want: big battles between good and evil, but also moments of quiet contemplation which show superheroes are people made of flesh and blood. Like everyone else they have their doubts and fears. I find comfort in that in these trying times.
Truthfully, I am not fond of House and Dance parties. Not even when they have a Halloween-theme. Still, I like the poster art of these two events.

In my last video I went comic book shopping. And in this video I showcase the comics I bought. Can’t wait to read them! What are you currently reading?
I can’t seem to get enough of these Halloween III: Season of the Witch screencaps. 🙂
I’ve been a fan of screencaps ever since I was a kid. I just wanted to be able to look at the action on the screen as long as possible. Slowmotion VHS helped, but sometimes you just want to study a freeze frame indefinitely, like it’s a painting or an illustration.
When I was about ten years old I tried to take photographs from the television screen. This was in the 1980s so it was an old school tv with a glass screen. Every time you took a picture, these nasty black bars would appear in the image. I didn’t know anything about the technological side of tv’s back then. Also it was very hard not to get a reflection of a window, or your mom standing in the back with a cup of tea in her hand. So when the roll of film was processed and developed, the photos were always pretty much a failure.
With digital video files, making screenshots is a lot easier. They give the best results.
Sometimes I still take a screenshot with my phone from the television screen, just for fun. Because tv’s are a lot better nowadays, most of the times they turn out pretty good. It’s a nice way to keep track of all the stuff I’m watching. I guess I’m still watching too much films and series, just like in the past. I haven’t changed much.
Last screen-shot for today of Halloween III: Season of the Witch. I guess I’m in a Halloween mood today. Maybe it’s because of the weather… Oh, who am I kidding? Most of the time I’m in a Halloween mood. Halloween is the best day of the year. Period. And why not celebrate the best part of the year a little bit every day?
Another screenshot from Halloween III: Season of the Witch. The witch on the BMX bike cracks me up. I love this image.
I guess a BMX Bike is quite the upgrade from a broom: as we know from the movie ET these bikes can fly just as well as a broom, and the saddle is a lot more comfortable than a piece of wood I imagine.
