Goodbye, 2018.
Another year comes to a close. This was a really busy one for me. I turned 37 this year, and I felt the numerology was in my favor to do some ambitious projects. First and foremost, I put together a team and produced a new comic series called CRISIS VECTOR. Things kicked off in January,…
The gift of gab is the gift that I have – SciFi Saturday Night podcast
I was a guest on the podcast SciFi Saturday Night! I talk with host Dome about my “career,” if you can call it that. A strange but I think enjoyable experience. I think. Anyways, listen to me drone on and behold the splendor of my provincial accent, if that’s your thing. Thanks to the SciFi…

Toller, a pastor tending to the needs of a cold little church in a cold little town in upstate New York. The parish has its 250th anniversary celebration approaching, and multiple…
Northeast Comic Con Winter 2018 Recap
I just wrapped 3 days at Northeast Comic Con in Boxboro, MA. I didn’t know what to expect from this show– it was my first time doing it, and it fell on the weekend following Thanksgiving. Would anyone be around? Would Black Friday and football syphon off any interest? Would people be too hungover from…

I have two feature articles in this year’s edition of FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND magazine! It’s a huge honor to contribute to this legendary magazine.

Blade Runner 2049 Reflections
Interesting. That’s the word stuck in my mind after taking in Blade Runner 2049. Not good. Not bad. Interesting. 2049 is not Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, and quickly shirks off any notion that it could be. It takes its own tone immediately, albeit a subservient one. Scott’s film is the Big Bang, 2049 simply another…
