As the new Ziggy comic arrives in the mail, I thought it'd be a good time to share this magnificent Bowie "Rock Fantasy" comic from 1990. It actually reminds me a lot of those indie Dungeons & Dragons zines that would circulate around colleges in the 80's, but instead of trolls and elf maidens, this … Continue reading Ziggy Lives: The 1990 Rock Fantasy Comic of your Dreams

It's been a long long time since my last post. Since then I have gotten married and started pitching our animated series, all while my spine continues to twist in on itself.
