Hey, c'mon out and get your copy!

POSTSCRIPT: Hey, we had a big turnout, a great time and handed out hundreds of copies of “What Makes a Man Dress Up Like a Bat??”! For a small taste of the event, check out the dramatic reading of Bob Pistilli's "Bat-ish Man" strip on youtube here and here. The show will be up through the month of September. Don't miss it!

Here's a peek at the first panel of my strip.

Hubba Hubba!

LA BELLE ET LA BÊTE (1946) (Beauty and the Beast) - Director Jean Cocteau.

Here's a drawing I did for the LAWNCHAIR DRIVE-IN in the Northern Liberties section of Philadelphia. It was a PHILLY COMIX JAM project for a poster to promote the 2009 film series . Ultimately, the project was aborted by the LCDI, however, the members of the PCJ held up their end of things very well. You can see the complete series here.

It's MOLLY & GUS!
