Check Out Yearbook Club!
Good morning, everybody! I come to you with some fun comic book news today. My friend and comics writing partner, Kristi McDowell, launches her new web comic today! It’s The Yearbook Club, and you can read it today on GlobalComix!
The Yearbook Club is an all-ages comic that follows the adventures of four tweens as they’re whisked to the past through their middle school library’s yearbook collection. Hollis Burncoat, Erin Bailey, William Durand and Snoozy Simmons solve mysteries and see familiar figures in their lives in a whole new light with each and every issue.
The Yearbook Club #1 takes the middle schoolers to 1996, where they arrive just in time to see their parents’ friendship fall apart! New student Erin learns about her friends as they try to find out who really sabotaged Sterling Burncoat, Jennifer Durand and Monica Miller’s science fair project and save their parents nearly 30 years of animosity.

The Yearbook Club comes from Very Big Comics, which is also producing Gamer Girl & Vixen these days, and Cover Bard, my own original comic! My friends and I are making our own comics and it’s super fun! Check it out!

Gamer Girl & Vixen Artist Spotlight: Jesse Lundberg
The Gamer Girl & Vixen Kickstarter is still going strong, and we’re only a few backers away from hitting our first stretch goal! At that point, we will guarantee the inclusion of a series of mini-comics we commissioned from some artist friends of ours, which I’ve been sharing for weeks now on this blog. And to help bolster these artists, I’m doing a series of quick “Meet the Artist” posts.
Next up is Jesse Lundberg.
Q. What led you to becoming an artist?
A. As a kindergartner, when asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was an illustrator. So I guess I’m just living out my childhood dream.
Q. What do you see as your strengths as an artist?
A. Being able to work in multiple styles. I can draw cartoons and realistic likenesses, switching from one to the other fairly easily.
Q. What are your future goals as an artist?
A. More cover work and a future all ages book I am working on currently. Maybe revisiting my IP Harold.
Jesse did the artwork and lettering on two of the short comics: Punch Challenge and Dual Wielding. He also designed the new character Super Guard, who appears in the second comic.
Tune in next week for a couple more artist profiles!
