Of course! It was the second comic book I ever put out. 26 years ago or so? A few future pros in that book. That's kinda rad that you found it in a used book store.

Hi! Wow, talk about going way back. I honestly don't remember much about the issue other than I *think* it was one of the first books I lettered outside of the kids books at DC. Working with editors Joey and Stephanie was always great, though!

I'd like to throw this editors way as well. If you know a script needs tightening, please send it back to the writer BEFORE it comes to lettering. This practice of needing to see the writing with the art before you do has to stop.

Loved the @mikemignola.bsky.social documentary Drawing Monsters from the Nacelle Company (who I recently did some toy reviews for). A couple of things I would have loved for it to touch was his work on both Fafred & the Grey Mouser & Dracula. I always saw those tonally as Hellboy adjacent.

Sal Cipriano @salcipriano.bsky.social · 30/12/2024
I've gotten myself away from almost all toy forums, even to post links to reviews I've done except for, funny enough, the TFW video review forum. Pretty quiet there, though. Otherwise, it's a mine field all of arguments everywhere I don't need. I get enough of that curbing my Ultrazilla platforms.

Mixing fonts is fun, but I'd like to point out the consistency Nate employs here more. A single source making similar sounds should equally translate to similar looking SFX.
