Elfquest!

A long time ago, a certain beautiful girl introduced me to the world of the Wolfriders. I wouldn’t go so far as to say it changed my life – but it strengthened my beliefs and my convictions in a variety of ways.

It help solidify the growing connection between the girl and I (although she [then] would’ve had strong words for me had I called her such).

There are many reasons to respect the world that Richard and Wendy Pini created and nurtured:

  • One of the first Indie Comics
  • One of the first American comics to show infuence from Manga
  • The first comic to deal respectfully with consensual non-monogamy
  • Great, well developed characters
  • Excellent,intriguing story-line over all

    • WaRP Graphics has begun putting all (as in every issue) of Elfquest online, for free.
    You can begin your journey by clicking here. Not the best way to read, but an easy way to start without a financial commitment. Once you start, you’ll be buying the books, I’m certain of it!

    Freedom!!!!!

    Monday, August 20th, 2007

    Such a nice thing not to have to worry about going back. I finished up at WFM last night, and though I’m staying as a seasonal employee, I’m so glad to be done. Some folks are good at playing the stupid corporate politics, and get along just fine with their ethics disconnected. Me, not so much.

    I want to give a shout out to the fine folks who joined me last night for a celebration of my departure: Jasmine (who left me with such fine mental imagery – who wouldn’t eat the spinach, indeed!), Kate, who reappeared just in time to say “see ya”, Willy B (fresh off the plane, and go for it – I would in a heartbeat!), Fester Walnuts (remember – just say no), William (safe return, and good luck with the music), Stefan (may Eris arrive quietly, and well), Pavel (go back to Alaska, and let your hair grow), George (my cross counter bud) and Edwin (tell her to turn down the suction). We had a great time, and thanks to the fine staff at The Field for keeping the refreshments flowing and the tables cleared.

    Jared – you suck. Get me to agree to go out, and you don’t even bother showing up. Hmmph.

    Stay in touch folks, and don’t forget to order thoseTattooed Dad t-shirts you all said you’d buy!

    Coming soon – An announcement of my future endeavors.
