Then of course I went to say hi to the corporate bosses! And to get there, I rode on one of the coolest trains EVER! They had couches inside instead of seats! I wanted to move in!

And what kind of MARVEL TradesJanitor would I be if I went to Asia and didn't take a picture of Madripoor? And, yeah, that's all you're getting--just this one picture from far away! Who do I look like? Wolverine? I'm not going on that island without adamantium claws! That place is dangerous!!



The TradesJanitor has to give a Galactus-sized Thank You to Jason Moiron and Cecilia Kan for all that they did for me during this trip!

So, here ya go. Sometimes, while I'm uploading or downloading some files I get a couple of minutes staring at the computer to make sure the files goes through without any cyber-hiccups. So instead of watching that Mac beach ball spinning around and around, I'll sketch something real quick. Here's what I did while waiting...

Then while downloading a proof for something else, I threw it into Photoshop for some real quick color and a background effect from a photo I had taken while out in the streets of NYC pretending I was Peter Parker!

So even when I'm working, I'm STILL working! Trying to bring something special to this blog! So now do me a favor and go out and buy some of these AWESOME MARVEL TRADES!

BUT what the history books DON'T tell you is there was another ship! The Excelsior! And that one was captained by Sir Stan of Lee and The Jack of Kirby (who was later crowned a KING!) Unlike Columbus' ships that came here to bring stuff back to the old country, Lee and Kirby's came to BRING stuff to the new world. The brought stories of great heroes on THE printed page! Stories that inspired hope and greatness to the youth and adults of the New World! And unlike Columbus day where we only celebrate once a year. We honor Lee and Kirby EVERY WEDNESDAY when new comics are on sale!
