David Mack Mentions
From Janelle:
	So I cracked open this month's Wizard tonight [#157] while trying to ignore my mother on the phone, and was quite amused to see in the "By The Numbers..." section: "15 minutes of break dancing Kabuki creator David Mack unleashed at 3 a.m. in his Chicago hotel lobby."
Special thanks to Janelle Siegel for the details
From Ugo.com's review of The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Daredevil/Elektra 2004:
	This wildly detailed issue suffers only from less-than-definitive art in some places (it looks like David Mack drew Ben Urich with a bucket, and Tim Sale's Foggy Nelson looks like he escaped from a Li'l Abner strip, although I do like the new hairdo on Alex Maleev's Typhoid, and how cool was it seeing the Romita and Miller art in there?), but is otherwise a damned fine, wildly referential work in a nice coverstock for a mere four bucks.

Kabuki Fan Art

Jon Norris posted Kabuki artwork based on the cover of the Kabuki: Skin Deep trade paperback.
