I feel bad picking on Jon Sable. He’s a favorite of the ComicMix team, and they’ve been very nice to me over the years. In fact, the book I have here is a limited edition for Baltimore Comic-Con 2008 — number 96 of 100. [1] It makes me wish I liked it better. But we…
I had other ideas of things Iâd write about this week. Iâve been reading a lot of Jon Sable lately, so I was thinking of writing about that. That might be next weekâs column. It was also Pride this past weekend, so I decided on a light piece on Pride with some comic and graphic…
It’s time for the Winter Olympics! That special time every four years where the world tunes in to watch athletes from all over compete for medals. I myself am reminded that perhaps I should take up running or some form of exercise other than getting up to grab myself a new book to read. Until…
Please take a look at last week’s installment before continuing on… As I said, I’ve had a very interesting career in comics. Denys Cowan and I were biding time until the premier of Mike Grell’s Jon Sable series on television. I’d been invited to watch it in Mike Grell’s hotel room and I invited Denys….
Yes, the Muppets are pushing to win Webby awards in the “Viral Video” Category: http://bit.ly/MupViral and in “Music Video” Category: http://www.youtube.com/webby?x=music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oowXRVDz9lw What, you thought that we were pushing for our own books for Harvey Award nominations? Perish the thought. Although, if you haven’t voted yet, since this is the last day to vote, you…
For those who came in late: Jon Sable has been hired by a businessman to deliver both a rare, valuable diamond and a beautiful yet troublesome woman from Africa to New York City. He’s done that, he’s back home, and he’s reconnected with old friends and flames. Last issue, Jon attended Prinsloo’s party for the…
Jon Sable returns in his latest adventure, Ashes of Eden. Sable is hired to deliver a diamond and a girl safely to New York; a simple enough job if the rock wasn’t the size of a bomb and the girl wasn’t Bashira– who, of course, is as unbelievably gorgeous as she is completely spoiled rotten….
No, it’s not impossible. We have more of The Pilgrim, the groundbreaking series written by Mark Ryan (Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen) and drawn by Mike Grell (Jon Sable Freelance), with colors by Jason Millet and letters by John Workman, coming out soon. The artwork to the left is from an upcoming page… we just…
Well, we’ve been hinting at this for about six months now. Some of you traditionalists have been asking when and how and where and when you can buy printed versions of the ComicMix comics. I’m proud to announce that we have partnered up with our friends at IDW (where GrimJack and Jon Sable Freelance and…
As you might have seen, the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree was lit last night. But you probably didn’t know what was going around in the background… Jon Sable Freelance and Maggie the Cat wandering around. If you’d like to know the real story of what went on last night, you can read Jon Sable Freelance:…
For a guy who wrote Iron Man, Mike Grell is a self-described Luddite, constantly at odds with technology. He once claimed he had a steam-driven fax machine. He was constantly amazed at the things I did to his art in Photoshop during my coloring stint on Jon Sable Freelance. With that, I was amused that…
As we previously mentioned, we printed special editions of Grimjack: The Manx Cat, Jon Sable Freelance: Ashes of Eden, and the Harvey-nominated EZ Street for this year’s Baltimore Comic-Con, limited to a print run of 100 for each title. And just as quickly, there were people asking if they were going to be available if…
