I think I've seen some Elfquest at the library. Always a little put off by the title but I'll give it a try...

Oh. Right. Got it. Kin I scalp 'em, or does that require a permit?

Make sure you start with the first volume... if you don't, it's easy to get lost in the story.

Alex Ross?

Weirdly, I am now running an FR art ping list. Although I'm in danger of handing it off.

Wilco. Do the characters look "real"? Stylized is ok but a lot of what I see takes the stylization too far - they get to be lumpy.

Back in 1993(?), I was programming on a contract for Unka Ross. Was sitting in the office when something rounded and dark brown swooped down from the ceiling into the upper right quadrant of my vision, then withdrew.

Broke my concentration. I was in the basement of the oldest skyscraper in Austin; I was justifiably afraid of bugs. I looked around, and found nothing. Went back to work.

It came back.

I finally realized that there was nothing there, that this .. apparition ... was either a problem with my vision, or a problem with my brain.

By the time i got to the opthalmologist, it was worse; I'd developed a flickering, like heat shimmer, around the edges of my vision. The doctor said I was fine, and that these were ocular migraines, and nothing to worry about.

More recently, I have developed symptoms of cluster headaches. About four times a year, I will startle awake, sweating, one side of my face feeling as if it were inflamed. I go in the bathroom, and one eye is itchy (it's hard not to rub it) and bright bloodshot red. The nasal passage on that side is swollen shut; even Vick's Nasal Spray won't touch it. I have post-nasal drip on that side of my throat. I have to take a Benadryl, or two --- that fixes the problem in five minutes, and knocks me out in five more minutes. When I wake up, I feel great!

I don't get the round swooping thing anymore, but I get the heat shimmer whenever I'm very, very tired.

2J, have you been getting your rest?

I'm ashamed to say that both of my senators are stinking commie sympathizers. Cantwell and Murray. Yeesh...

We'd be better off with senators Hussein and Bin Laden.

I wouldn't wish migraines on anyone...but big round swoopy things sound rather nifty...

Or maybe not.

Alex Ross' website. His comic-book artwork is fully-painted, and much of it is based on posed models.

The humans look real... the elves look, well, humanoid, but non-human.

Well, yeah, but it was brown, and it would only show up when I was concentrating on something else ... distracting!

How ya doin', Rosie?? Nice to talk to you in your new digs!
