HappyGlyphs Comics: May 2013
http://happyglyphs.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 30, 2013. Since I'm selling at Comic-con International for the first time this year, I wanted to bring along something special besides the brand new comic book. Our first exclusive variant cover, and the all new Pirate packs of course. :0). In this blog I'll show you the process from start to finish. Finally I did the inking, where line thickness and shading need to make the image stand out, even without color. Cheers, JOHN :0). PS This will be an art print available in our shop. Where ther...

http://happyglyphs.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 28, 2014. Great Lakes Chapter Anniversary Dinner. I had a truly great weekend recently, which made me really happy to be a cartoonist. Not only did the new exhibit at the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum open, but I attended the 20th Anniversary celebration for the Great Lakes Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society! And a really cool raffle with great prizes. I was quite pleased to win a gift bag from last year's Reuben Awards, full of all kinds of goodies. Links to this post.

Friday, August 23, 2013. Comic-con International 2013 Pics! I'm finally getting around to posting my Comic-con pics from this year, the first time I actually exhibited. It's a work in progress, but you can see the to-date set here at my facebook page. And hopefully I'll find another photo-sharing site as well. (I can't seem to load to my Flickr account, so.). I will say that walking the show floor early, when the lights seemed dim, and few people were around was an amazing experience! I did see lots of c...

HappyGlyphs Comics: National Cartoonists Society
http://happyglyphs.blogspot.com/2015/01/national-cartoonists-society.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2015. I've been quite busy since joining the National Cartoonists Society! This is something I wanted for quite some time, and I am proud indeed to have earned my membership. Not only have I gone to my first Reuben Awards (in San Diego, yet! But I've had the privilege of meeting some very talented people, and working on some interesting projects. Sadly, one of the first things we've had to deal with this year was the tragedy in France. Whether you agree with the cartoons or not...

HappyGlyphs Comics: December 2013
http://happyglyphs.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 12, 2013. A Special Short Story. As far as cartooning goes, I'm proud to be the creator of two comic strips, Knight and Day. And The Inquiring Minds. Some time ago, it just seemed to make sense to merge those worlds into one, and so Iris became the daughter of Steven and Amy Knight, and all kinds of possibilities and crossovers occurred. I'm really glad, because eventually my short story, Iris. Iris was created for the SPACE Anthology 2012. Cheers, JOHN :0). Links to this post.

HappyGlyphs Comics: October 2012
http://happyglyphs.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 19, 2012. I've finally drawn the last page of The Ghost Pirate Skeletons of Three Craters Lake! At least I think I have. I'm going to have to go back and read over everything and see if I need to add two additional pages. The last read through I did of the script led me to believe that one part of the story needed a little enhancement. the pacing went by too fast. So we'll have to see if I'm done, or if there's a bit more work to do. And the journey is truly only beginning! One thing I am...
