Chapter 17, Page 24a: Impossible to Choose

Captain Heroic has a showdown with Countess Influencia, but the former waitress isn't interested in going back to the diner — and she certainly isn't hearing his excuses! She has the city at her feet, and in her book, that's a win!

Fairmount City's top hero sees it differently. There's a big difference between trending and mattering. The Countess may be impossible to ignore... but that also makes her impossible to choose.

Cartoonist Showcase

If you're in the Columbus area, make plans to stop by the Billy Ireland Library & Museum on August 8th from 1-5 p.m. It's a free event, and I'll be there sketching and signing along with a bunch of my pals from the NCS.

Fan Art!

Fan Art!I’ve been getting some fantastic fan art, but unfortunately, I’ve been ultra busy and unable to work on a Fan Art page. Finally, I got a little time and decided I’ve got to get this stuff out there! I’ve got a Miss Match Lego character, a beautiful Lightning Lady sketch, and some holdovers from my Greystone Inn days — including a sculpted Argus and a 3D rendering of him in the studio. Take a look!

You wanna know what the real cool thing is? Not only do I have a really cool sketch (seriously… this guy draws a hot Lightning Lady), but a lot of the art I’ve received is off-the-wall ideas like clay, Legos, and 3-D modelling!

I’m telling ya, you guys are the coolest!
