It’s odd when you meet artists who occasionally draw themselves into their own strips, because you don’t always know what to expect: David Willis looked so much like the “David Willis” character that if I’d passed him in the street, I’d probably have thought “Wow, that guy looks a lot like David Willis. Or maybe Walky.”

Randy Mulholland, on the other hand, looks nothing like “Randy Mulholland.”

Francesco Marciulano also looked nothing like “Medium Large Guy” — but to be fair, he never explicitly said this character was supposed to be his stand-in.

This all comes to mind because I’m planning to meet up with Zack Weiner tomorrow at NYCC, and he frequently draws himself into his strip — and I’m just hoping he won’t be sitting behind his table naked.

Eye

Cidu Bill on Sep 29th 2010

Please join me in sending best wishes to Francesco Marciuliano who, while suffering from a serious eye problem, still managed to draw a comic based on that eye problem. Talk about devotion to one’s fans!

CIDUs All the Way Down

Cidu Bill on Aug 13th 2010

James Schend: Let’s take the premise of the comic which is that the Earth is a computer program stored in a couple of servers– in that case, how does the “turtles, all the way down” comment make any sense?

Also, I find it interesting that he promos two Apple laptops, complete with logo, and yet doesn’t draw the server itself which is almost certainly not Apple… Apple servers are notoriously unpopular.
