I know Kabuki is not everybody's cup of tea. It is very non-mainstream... But if you like all of Kubrick's films, I think you will dig Kabuki.

David Mack Mentioned in Daredevil: Volume 6 Review
From ComicsBulletin.com:
Between David Mack’s inspired cover artwork, Alex Maleev’s diverse pencils, Dave Stewart’s lush colors, and one of Brian Michael Bendis’s first jaunts into mainstream comics (after impressing everyone with sprawling original masterpieces like Torso, Jinx, and Goldfish), there’s a lot to like in this volume.


Strangeness Afoot at Emerald City ComiCon
From David Mack:
When Brian yelled "Gail, pants David!" I really didn't know what he was talking about. I missed this pants stuff.

I was just having a conversation with some readers at my table - so the weird look I gave was just that I had no idea what any of this yelling meant.

From The Beat:
On Friday, April 17, 2009, the Stumptown Comics Foundation is proud to present a chance-of-a-lifetime dinner event at which we would be honored to have you join us. Tailored for the discerning connoisseur of comic books, today’s most vibrant artistic and cultural movement, this is a relaxing evening of food, drink and conversation with an intimate grouping of the medium’s most respected and innovative storytellers. Held in the ArtBar & Bistro of the Portland Center for the Performing Arts, located across the street from the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, this is a joint fundraising benefit for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund and Portland, Oregon’s own Stumptown Comics Foundation.

Guests include: Jeff Smith, creator of Bone and Rasl and STCF09 special guest of honor; Craig Thompson, creator of Blankets, Good-bye Chunky Rice, and the forthcoming Habibi; Farel Dalrymple, creator of pop gun war and illustrator of best-selling author Jonathan Lethem’s Omega the Unknown; Matt Wagner, creator of Mage and Grendel; Gail Simone, creator of Unhinged and author of Wonder Woman; Brian Michael Bendis, author of Powers, Alias, The New Avengers, and many more; Derek Kirk Kim, creator of Same Difference and Other Stories as well as Lowbright; and Mike Dringenberg, co-creator of Sandman and contributor to the Tori Amos comics anthology Comic Book Tattoo. Directors of the Foundation and Fund will also be in attendance.

Attendance to this excellently prepared traditional three course meal — salad, entree and dessert — is $100.00 per patron, and offers intimate seating at a table with one of our honored guests. Seating is assigned, and based on first-come, first served reservation by emailing to sts@stumptowncomics.com for an invoice. A vegan option is available upon request, and evening-casual attire or finer is requested of you. No one under the age of 17 will be admitted without a ticketed adult companion, and proper identification will be necessary in order to imbibe spirits. Thank you for your understanding.

Prior to the dinner and beginning at 5:30PM, an open attendance cocktail hour will take place in the Rotunda lobby of the Portland Center for the Performing Arts, during which Portland Mayor Sam Adams will read a proclamation declaring Portland the City of Comics for the month of April 2009 and during which ticketed guests will enjoy hosted beer and wine. At 6:30PM only ticketed guests will retire to the dining room for seating, and dinner will be served shortly afterward.

This gala evening gives you the opportunity mix and mingle with the creators of the works you love, to ask the questions you’ve always wanted answered, and get some of the inside stories beyond the comics page, as well as insights into the careers and lives of the incredibly talented men and women who create them. Wine, dine, meet and greet, all to celebrate comics and kick off the sixth annual Stumptown Comics Fest held April 18 & 19 at the Lloyd Center Doubletree Hotel, as well as add your strength to two organizations dedicated to the support of comic books.
