@Nerdist Motivating words from @ThatKevinSmith on the #Nerdist podcast!
There are people who consume and people who create. I am inspired and determined to be part of this century’s optimistic creators. I’m tired of looking over the fence, wishing I was doing something else. It’s time to pursue. Today we are offered the freedom in pursuit like never before. I am out of excuses.
Thank you to those who have blazed the trail courageously forward so that cowards like me can follow in your steps. Thank you Felicia Day, Chris Hardwick and Rob Kelly!
To everyone else: What are your dreams? If you could make something, what would it be? A product? A song? A musical? What real or perceived limits do you struggle to overcome?

This is a quick song sketch for an #Aquaman ballad. It’s sung from Arthur’s perspective, mourning the loss of his son who was murdered by Black Manta. In the comics, Manta kidnaps Arthur Jr., forcing Aquaman to fight Aqualad for his son’s life. In the end, Aquaman is too late. Arthur Jr. dies at the hand of his enemy.
I’d love the flesh this concept out even more. I imagine that Arthur regularly doubts his decision to show mercy to Manta in the face of his cruelty. Even more, this single event changed the course of the character’s life. His marriage to Mera suffered from the murder as did his relationship with Aqualad. There is a lot to plume here for a melancholy introspective tune.
With DC’s relaunch, Aquaman’s book has made no mention of him having a son. Fans have been left to wonder how this revision will affect the character.

Puppet play at the office!
@theguild I’ve been working on a fan art series for #TheGuild over the last couple of days. It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while. I only wish I’d had this ready for the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo last weekend (C2E2). I hope you enjoy it!
P.S. If you aren’t watching The Guild, you should be. Check them out at their new web channel, geekandsundry.com!
Save the Great Space Coaster
I had the privilege of meeting puppeteer Jim Martin (Gary Gnu) from the Great Space Coaster at C2E2 last weekend. Jim is working extremely hard to rescue the Great Space Coaster from television obscurity. As it is with rescuing most lost television programs, there are enormous challenges and legal obstacles standing in the way.
