Apparently Dimitri wishes to seek out new life and new civilizations and boldly go where no man has gone before. Ah huh. One giant leap for this man, one small step for mankind.

I just finished listening to the audiobook, “Star Wars – Millennium Falcon.” Why did I do this? Curiosity, I suppose. What would a book in the Star Wars universe be like? I didn’t know. And how could I resist the premise of Han and Leia married, older, and caring for the grandkid.
The reader was a bit over the top. The effeminate voices he used for the people at the “dog show” were only topped by the very effeminate voice he used for the male hairdresser. Ah, good times in the land of cheese.
My favorite part was where the grandkid ran off, and Leia used the force to find her. What grandparent wouldn’t use that useful skill?
I’ve been a little quiet on the blog front. I have many thoughts and reviews and totally unnecessary things to add below the strip, some of which I’m sure one or two of you may even read. but for now I’m finishing up Dee, doing the pre-press for the last book, and so I’m sapped.
Love you all though. Like a brother.
At the Seattle Comic Con someone asked me if I had an RSS feed. the answer: YES. The little orange square on the upper right side of this page is your RSS link. For those who don’t know what an RSS feed is, it’s one place where you can have all your favorite blogs and comics and news sources come to you. I use livejournal as my RSS reader, but most people use Google Reader.
Speaking of ways to follow me, I’m on both Facebook and Twitter, and you can see my other work at littledee.net and baldwinpage.com.

I had a really good time at the Emerald City Comic Con. Thank you all for coming out, and specifically to those who made it to my table. I enjoyed chatting with all of you all weekend. :)
I finally got to meet Bill Barnes and Dave Kellet, as well as got to welcome Scott Kurtz to our fair city (somehow though I missed the chance to say hello to Kris Straub and Brad Guigar).
I said my usual Hellos to the Portland crowd: Indigo Kelleigh, Dylan Meconis, Erika Moen, Steve Leiber, and Johnzo. Always a pleasure and I look forward to seeing them all again in a month at Stumptown.
Saturday night I went along with Indigo to a “Drink and Draw” to meet some local cartoonist (Calamity John and Adam among others), of who I have been woefully unfamiliar. Good times were had.
And special thanks to Jeff and Holly for putting together the Topatoco booth. Not only for the great support and and awesome booth, but it provided me a chance to meet a bunch of the other artists they represent.
Most of my time was spent sandwiched between Jon Rosenberg, making jokes and talking shop-talk,

and Kate Beaton, who I chummed with but she was very busy cheerily  attending to her persistent line.

I enjoyed myself. Ate decently. Didn’t drink too much. Made modest but respectable sales. met good folk. A good report.
I had a lovely time at The Emerald City Comic Con, thank you all for coming out.
I’ll post a longer blog in the next couple days, but I just wanted to say thank you all, those who stopped by, to Topatoco, and to all the other generous and fun creators who make this such an exciting field to be in.
Well, we are underway. The intro strips, showing the structure of how I tell the tale, introducing the currently major characters, and negotiating their relationship, has settled down… and today is the first day of voyage.
Strap yourself in…. lean back, and… actually, get really comfy, it’ll be a long while, and have a long drink. Maybe several.
And come see me this weekend at The Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle at the Topatoco table!
