Twit

Twit is a new webcomic illustrated by Eric Kim, artist of Love as a Foreign Language, based on my Twitter feed. I know, it sounds kind of silly, but it was suggested by some fans, I bounced the idea off of Eric, and he took the ball and totally ran with it.

Twit is a one-panel strip that updates every Sunday. We opted for "soft launch" on Father's Day without any hype. There are two strips up now. I wanted to wait until we had a few instalments before making too much noise. Check it out and please tweet, share the link, and/or follow the page here.

Jinx #2

My second issue of the Archie Comics digital exclusive Jinx is now available for download. I noticed it was available on the Archie Comics app sometime last week, but it hasn't shown up on the main comiXology or Comics4Kids app. Someone also just informed me that Jinx #2 is available on Graphicly, so I'm not sure how all of that works and why it's not showing up across the board at the same time (or thereabouts).

Anyway, I hope people check it out as soon as it's available on their app of choice because IN THIS ISSUE EVERYTHING CHANGES!

Going Back to Calgary, Calgary, Calgary

I'm a guest at the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo this weekend (June 17-19).  I'm on a bit of a tight schedule but I should be there for most of Friday and Saturday, although I'll have to duck out early on Sunday to catch a flight.

You can find me in the Guest Creators area at table I-09 flanked by Gail Simone and Dustin Nguyen. We seem to be in a cluster (or island) of tables with Geoff Darrow, Tony Dezunga, and Matt Clark behind us. What a group!

For more information, please go to the Calgary Expo website.

AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER—THE LOST ADVENTURES

For three years, millions of eager fans tuned in to watch new episodes of Nickelodeon’s hit animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. Ever since, fans have been hungry for more—and now their wait is finally over!

This volume collects the long-out-of-print, fan-favorite comics previously published in Nickelodeon Magazine and with theAirbender DVDs, plus over seventy brand-new comics pages. That’s twenty-six stories set in Airbender continuity, by a host of top-notch talent, many of whom worked on the original animated series!

I've got four stories in this collection which is in stores this week. Two of the stories are illustrated by the dynamic duo of Gurihiru (including the one from Free Comic Book Day), one is by the super talented Johane Matte, and the other by the incomparable Corey Lewis. Two of the stories feature everyone's favourite earthbender Toph. Seriously, Avatar slash comic book fans, what more could you ask for?
