I don't know much of anything about it. I think the person who writes it is a girl and it is exclusively dedicated to comic books and things which revolve around comic books.

I've read the sum total of one article the girl (again, I think...) has written, which was a piece on the lacking non-black minority superheroes in the major comic publishing world.

She used a picture of Apache Chief from the Superfriends, and so I reminded her that the same Challenge of the Superfriends spin-off from which she took the big chief featured, absent Black Vulcan, since black heroes were off topic, Samurai (more like Samurawesome), El Dorado, Superman (if one creates a hero in their own image, albeit the handsomely distorted image of themselves, Superman is a Jew), a half Mexican Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter...still the prototype for that character, and still what makes it impossible for anyone else to play the role), Aquagay, and if the Wonder Twins aren't Asian, it's simply because all the people on their home planet are Asian...and then I listed some others.

Her comment back was interesting, so I made one back (you gotta realize, with the exception of picking up a TMNT #1 by accident a couple weeks ago in a stack of a few other books I got for free, I haven't opened a comic book in years, nor read one online, so for her to pique my interest with talk of comics was not too shabby).

Then she wrote...then I did...

Like I said, she was overall interesting enough, and the one thing I knew about her was that she liked comic books, though somewhat cool, esoteric aspects of them, so truly as an afterthought, I shot her one of your pics and said that I thought you were amazing and that she might dig on you as well, and that I was quite sure that she hadn't seen your stuff before because no one, basically, has (or, perhaps a few have, but I doubt that any of them know you by a consistent moniker).

I didn't say all of that, though...just that you put some cool shit together and that you were outside the industry (I also said that I was not your sock puppet and that she was free to see my shitty dA page, but that it was hardly worth anyone's time...because I know a lot of people will pull that kind of crap to promote themselves).

Apparently she liked what she saw.

You were an afterthought, man...I wasn't tryin' to push you out to the public at large...just conversed with someone who seemed cool enough, so I let her in on the little secret that was you.

I truly thought that would be the last I spoke to the girl and that would be that.

Anyway, if ya wanna check out the blog, here ya go:

(with the name Dick Queen, essentially, gay or female is all I got to go on, but in conversation, it felt like a girl.)

Good luck,

No, I'm sayin', if art for the sake of art is the goal, then what you're doing will, in the end (I have to believe), make for the best art. If the field you're in now doesn't work out and you enjoy comic characters (can I still call them comic books, or is that not PC now?), then having a distinctive style that people can quickly recognize from a glance of a cover is the way to go.

Artists gotta eat, too...sometimes art for the sake of art leaves you with an empty belly.

Anyway, you're amazing....kinda a mix between Jim Lee and Jai Lee (the latter being my fave comic book artist of all time). Cheers.
