- Phil McAndrew says that old, wrinkly people are probably his favorite thing to draw. Perhaps you feel the same. He's come up with a contest: draw yourself at age 100. The winner will receive a fantastic art-filled package. Entries are due by this Friday, June 26.
- Meanwhile, Nedroid Comics has launched "The Great Cosby Experiment 09." Contestants are to submit a drawing of Bill Cosby—also by this Friday.
- Prefer to buy drawings instead of creating them? You're in luck: for a limited time (i.e. as long as she's broke) talented cartoonist Laura Park is currently available for commissioned work—time to buy your girlfriend a whimsical portrait of the two of you.
- For more Laura Park art, you can also nab one of her minicomics.
- What's more romantic than comics? Cartoonists Eleanor Davis and Drew Weing got hitched this spring, thus exponentially increasing their artistic powers.
- The Comics Reporter just published an extensive and fantastic interview with Minneapolis cartoonist Kevin Cannon, and explained the confusion surrounding Kevin and Zander Cannon—frequent collaborators, but no relation.
- This Tuesday, June 23, at 8 PM, Jessica Abel and Tom Hart be appearing at the Pit in Brooklyn, as part of the ongoing Comic Book Club series. Tickets ($5) are available online.
- This Wednesday, also in New York, artist Steve Dillon will be signing and selling comics for the benefit of Heroes Initiative, a charity for needy cartoonists.
- He's played a superhero on TV: now Milo Ventimiglia of Heroes is launching his own comic book, Berserker. The book debuts at 1:00 PM this Saturday, June 27, at Golden Apple Comics in Los Angeles.
