C&E Fan Art by COLIN PANETTA
About a year (or so) ago, I met Colin Panetta and Mark Velard in Northampton, MA at a small local convention ; two extraordinarily talented cartoonists operating under the moniker Mysterious Transmisions. I wasted no time and recommended them to my ally Alan Nidle (the infamous curator of the Zeitgeist Gallery) for a potential debut exhibition in a small gallery space he was renting in downtown Greenfield. He agreed on the condition that my own comics work be presented alongside theirs. The resulting show was a success (in that all attendees were enthusiastic and complete strangers showed up to gawk at the weird pictures ~ after fifteen tears of gallery trolling, I can assert that this qualifies as "successful").
I was very pleased a few days ago to receive this unsolicited piece of fan art from Colin Panetta. I'm honored to include this effort among the C&E Fan Art, and I urge you to examine his other excellent works at his website.

Perhaps the state of Chloe's father on this page is a reflection of the reader's condition at this point of the narrative.

This is the sort of thing I tend to draw. People will just have to get used to it.

No Updates This Week
Krissy & I have moved into my father's old house in Ashburnham, Massachusetts. The place has been unoccupied for many years and suffers from neglect. When investigating a small hole in the basement wall, we uncovered a decade's worth of rot. Being unable to pay a contractor to repair this means I will have to devote the next few weeks to doing it myself. Using power tools, chiseling wood and such tends to leave my hands in a condition unsuitable for holding a pen and drawing. Hopefully, the house will still be standing after this....
In the meantime, comics production is on hold - yet again. (Unless someone wants to donate 3 grand for the restoration of my home.) Bear with me, as I try to bear with this.

At the time, when I was drawing this book, I felt that dwarves (and little people in general) were unfairly depicted in movies and popular media. I decided that in this book, the dwarf should get the girl.

I wonder how many readers identify with this scene; sneaking out in the middle of the night.

C&E Fan Art by Pete Fairfax
Pete Fairfax sent me this exquisite illustration some weeks back. I only just got around to uploading it today. I think it's a wonderful depiction, and I strongly recommend that you check out more of his superb artwork at www.peterfairfax.com!
As always, I will gleefully accept all fan art and post them on the C&E Website. If you even slightly feel the urge to attempt your own pictorial interpretation of of any of my characters, send it my way immediately!

Sneaking into the house late at night is common experience for most teenagers, I think.

It's probably not a good thing when policemen march through your front door in large groups.
