i think my neighbor is kind of a big shot in the comic drawing world, but i don't know. so, i am asking to see if anyone knows who he is.
joe jusko?
i think he drew that picture of captain america following Sept. 11 with NYPD and FYPD written across the top. at least that is what the gossip is...

I was kinda curious if I could find any drawings by him so I did a search at google. Instead I found interview.

Ask him these questions, and you know if it's him. :D

OK, here's an interesting one. Has anyone ever heard of Lovern Kindzierski? He is the director of a company called Digital Chameleon, who colour DC comics. He colours loads of comics, and he happens to be the husband of a friend of my mother's. He has sent me many comics, Supermans mostly, and a few gems - a signed copy of the Clark Kent-Lois Lane marriage issue, and signed copies of the first three Tarzan comics, which he wrote. Has anyone heard of him??

On an interesting sidenote, he has also sent me Digital Chameleon T-shirts and othere paraphernalia, which I think is where I came up with the Kameleon handle. Weird huh?

Ask Saigo, he might know some, actually. He spends most of the time in the NWN forum these days, though.

He looks like he could, he is a fantastic artist. The two links at the bottom are his portraits for his character for NwN. :)

I thought some of you might be interested in this article:

Why Dilbert loves the Internet
By Gwendolyn Mariano - Staff Writer, CNET News.com May 28, 2002, 4:00 AM PT

Scott Adams, creator of the popular comic strip, spills his guts to News.com about his plans to become a Web mogul and conquer the business world--all from a nice cozy cubicle, of course.

The Interview.

Q: What lessons have you or Dilbert learned from the dot-com boom and bust?

A:Well, I (have) this new book coming out, "Dilbert and the Way of the Weasel," and I would lump the dot-coms in with Enron and Merrill Lynch and Arthur Andersen and all these companies that are just major weasels. My main thing is that anybody who invests in individual stock just doesn't understand that the management is just as likely to be making up stuff as the publisher. I think it used to be true that you could more or less trust them because the threat of getting caught would keep them honest. But that doesn't even seem to make a difference anymore. It just seems (like) widespread lying everywhere.
