"Hey folks, thanx for stopping by...I'll be posting, from time to time, pieces of my current projects and commenting on each piece as time allows.
Actually I shouldn't spend alot of time here- deadlines and all- but I'll try to be around as much as I can muster.
Again, thanx for checking me out. Peace."RAGS.********************************************************************** PARTNERS IN CRIME11/10/08 There are times when you jive with someone artistically, that speak in terms that can only be described as a true love. Sounds weird, but it's not in a sexual, procreation sense, although there are times where romance grows. It happens alot in Hollywood between leading men and women (hetero or homosexual) as well as in the music industry. Let me explain. Being an artist means being sensitive. We, as a community, are definitely plugged into something else. Something ethereal. That sensitivity can be gadged by how seamless we can communicate with another artist. It's happened to me a few times...with Geoff Johns, Tom Peyer, Mike Bair, John Dell, Brad Meltzer, and Nei Ruffino. You've seen it elsewhere too, in the artistic world; Tyler and Perry, Plant and Page, Kirby and Sinnot, Bell and Arnaz, Gleason and Carney, Buckingham and Nicks, etc. This doesn't mean, however, that you can always see eye to eye personality wise, but on an artistic level-there is magic. I'm proud to be associated with the plethora of fantastic talent I've had in nearly 20 years. The above is just a short list in my career...there have been others. I guess it's been on my mind. A chance to say, thank you and I love you guys.

Thanks for the add. Glad to see you on some higher profile titles, always wondered why you weren't first choice for the "A" books. |

Hi Rags! I'm glad you're in my favorite book, Nightwing. I've been a fans since your run on hawkman. And stop buying the book after you left. :) Any chance you comeback to hawkman again? OR JLA with hawkman on it will be cool too. Your rendering of the character is IMO, the best.
Anyway, thanks for adding me. Always looking forward to your works. |

Thanks for the add! Holy mackerel, a King's X fan. "Gretchen Goes to Nebraska" was my first album. Loved all the CS Lewis references.
Have a great rest of the weekend.
