Sidebar For A Second (and Welcome to You...
I realize that the talented Gail Simone has shared a couple of pieces I wrote about Dwayne McDuffie over her Tumblr account.  If I was capable of blushing, I would be doing that because I’m not worthy of such attention. But to all the newcomers who followed Ms. Simone to this place, welcome. Hope you guys and gals stick around. I am humbled by your presence.

gailsimone: fyeahlilbitoeverything: blackfolksmakingcomics: During the newer, longer DC Nation promo on Cartoon Network (I know„ it premieres next week, and they’re JUST NOW promoting the damned thing on-air), I did notice a scene of Young Justice with Rocket speaking, so, hey, that’s pretty… Wait, wait, wait. ROCKET? I LOVE ROCKET. You and me both. And she was in a scene with Zatanna...

On A Positive Note
During the newer, longer DC Nation promo on Cartoon Network (I know„ it premieres next week, and they’re JUST NOW promoting the damned thing on-air), I did notice a scene of Young Justice with Rocket speaking, so, hey, that’s pretty great for her character. It’s not every day you see a Milestone character in any series. Of course, the last one had 52 episodes under his...

Still The Budgie
“When I was a kid, I used to have this parakeet. Sometimes, when I’d open his cage to clean it, he’d escape. The little bird would see the backyard and make his move. Invariably, he’d head straight for the window, fast as he could and inevitably, crack his head on the windowpane .A barrier of glass, unseen and incomprehensible to him. So he’d try again, over...

Thinking About Dwayne Makes Me Sad...
fyeahlilbitoeverything: I think in some minor ways certain things have gotten better. Just before his death DC had zero POC titles but now they at least have Batwing, Voodoo, and Blue Beetle. And while not the same as solo titles, most of the team books (except for JL Dark) also have at least one or two POC members, which I guess is an improvement since the JLA was all-white and the Titans had...

Dwayne McDuffie Has Been Gone A Year
gailsimone: And I still miss him all the time. I keep finding books he wrote, or emails he sent, or cartoons he worked on. The best writer, the best friend, the best guy. You are missed so much, Dwayne, and sadly, but as we all expected… …you are not replaceable. Quite true. Mr. McDuffie was one-of-a-kind. Classy, intelligent, and talented. A rare mix in any person. And while no one can...

Happy Birthday Dwayne McDuffie
drawology: Dwayne McDuffie was born on February 20, he died on February 21st, and I was born on February 22nd.  That probably means nothing but McDuffie had an incredible impact on my life and showed me what it was like to see universe full of black superheroes. He showed me it was possible and now thanks to him I try to make that clear in my work to this day.  It’s not any secret that my...

thatsclassic reblogged this from blackfolksmakingcomics and added: It’s always strange when I find people who reblog my art from other places. It catches me off guard and then I get incredibly humbled.  and just have to say thanks. You’re welcome. Saw your gallery and I have to say, quite impressive stuff you’ve got going on. Keep us updated, man.  And keep doing what...

Still Here
I wrote this back in November, the the heat of the moronic SOPA/PIPA dialogue. Considering how I’ve been feeling these last couple of days (feelings of disappointment, being unwanted, and being a failure at everything), I tend to look at the world around me. Why I’m so upset at myself and everything in it. I think I’m tired of feeling like a nothing. I’m tired of being...
