Mining The Closets For Rare 45s : Kraut

I just can't stop finding weird little gems buried behind things in my closets as I attempt to restructure and reorganize the hell out of them. Amid a stack of square dancing 45s, and a dirty pile of children's LPs that I saved from the garbage on...

Renegade Craft Fair 2008 : Brooklyn

After a weekend surrounded by high priced high fashion and high priced 'Affordable Art', I needed a low-priced respite. I needed to be among real people, real artisans, and real things I could afford. I'm a man in love with all extremes - I'll cha...

MOCCA Festival 2007 : The Artists

This past weekend was a significant one for New York comic nerds of all ilks, from those exclusively into spandex and punching to those collectors who prefer their comics brooding and embarrassingly autobiographical. Not only was the seven millio...

What's The Next Big Thing?

I'm a firm believer that we all have our clever inventor sides. Most of the time we just use this energy & creativity to rationalize adding to our collections, but if you've made something clever and you'd like to take your invention or DIY p...

The Deer Tick and I : Adventures in Vinyl

Imagine one of the things that you enjoy collecting the most; action figures, lace curtains, model trains, Power Rangers, human remains, whatever your most exciting items may be. Now, imagine becoming a small part of the legacy of that thing. You ...

Drawing Words and Writing Pictures

'How To Draw Comics the Marvel Way' is pretty much my bible... with Spider-Man, of course, playing the role of Job, and The Thing as Moses. A battered, blue copy of 'The Marvel Way' has been knocking around my house since the late 70s, and I ap...

Gus Fink's Boogily Heads

I knew nothing of Gus Fink before I met him during 2008's Toy Fair, but anytime I meet an artist as prolific as 'Gus' (nee Josh Fields), I can't help but be inspired. Visions of quitting my job and replacing it with painting and drawing for weeks ...

The More Things Change... Vintage Women's Publications

Yes, it's true; the more things change, the more they stay the same. Perhaps this is most true when looking at vintage magazines, books, and other publications devoted to women. Certainly this makes sense when it comes to certain matters of ho...
