DIYBA-Program 72Dpi.Pdf ABOUT THE DIY BUSINESS ASSOCIATION The DIY Business Association empowers, educates, and connects creative small businesses and self-employed/freelancers to help them grow their businesses—because it takes a community to do it yourself. Hatched in late 2010, the DIY Business Association is growing exactly as it should—DIY-style. The options are endless for the future of the DIYT (do-it-yourself-together) community. The Brooklyn DIYBA Conference is the kickoff event. In addition to follow-up events for the rest of 2011 in New York, in 2012, the DIYBA plans to organize a tour of events in Chicago, San Francisco, Portland, Austin, and Boston. After that, who knows: A video or radio series? A TV show? A book series? Why not? Thank you for attending the very first DIY Business Association Conference. We look forward to hearing your feedback and suggestions. We couldn’t do this without you. With respect, Amy Schroeder [email protected] DIYBA.ORG 1 CREDITS DIY BUSINESS ASSOCIATION FOUNDER AND CEO AMY SCHROEDER founded Venus Zine and venuszine.com in her Michigan State University dorm room at age 19. After about a decade of growing the publication from a cut-and-paste fanzine into an internationally circulated magazine with a starting budget of zero, she sold the company to an independent Chicago publisher and moved to New York. For her first year and a half in New York, she worked for inkpop.com and Girl Scouts of the USA. She now works full time for the DIY Business Association, organizing conferences and consulting with creatives to grow their businesses. Schroeder writes a column about entrepreneurship for Splashlife.com and is working on a book about creative entrepreneurs’ success stories.

BEST THING I’VE DONE FOR MY CAREER SO Far: Decision #1: I decided to start living in the “now” instead of the “when.” I used to put off doing things I was truly passionate about or learning something that satisfied my curiosity because I always had some excuse that I was too busy with work. I would say, “I’ll start taking ballet again when this project gets done,” or “I’ll read that book when work gets less crazy.” Well, guess what? Things never got less busy. One project was just replaced by another one, and I never did the things I said were important to me. When I started replacing “when” with “now,” life started to get even better. Decision #2: I decided that my brain is precious real estate. Eighty perfect of my brain used to be taken up thinking about crap on a daily basis that I wasn’t actually that passionate about. What a waste. I decided to start filling my life and mind with things that actually mattered to me. Decision #3: I decided to write down my own fears. We often walk around with these nebulous fears in our heads that make us feel like doing something (like quitting our jobs to start our own company) is going to have disastrous consequences. When you write it down, the fear that has been masquerading as a lion usually turns into a kitten. 2 3 INCREASE YOUR INCOME: HOW TO GET Paid WHAT You’re WORTH, HOW TO TaP INTO FUNDS THAT You Don’t EVEN KNOW EXIST, AND PRACTICAL WayS TO EARN EXTRA INCOME Emmy award–winning artist DEAN HASPIEL is a native New Yorker who created the Eisner Award nominated Billy Dogma, the semi-autobiographical Street Code, and helped pioneer personal webcomics with the invention of ACT-I-VATE. Haspiel has drawn many great superhero and semi- autobiographical comic books published by Marvel, DC/Vertigo, Dark Horse, Image, Scholastic, Toon Books, Top Shelf, and the New York Times, including collaborations with Harvey Pekar, Jonathan Ames, and Inverna Lockpez, and illustrates for HBO’s Bored To Death. BEST THING I’VE DONE FOR MY CAREER SO Far: If waking up every day to the struggles of anxiety and insecurity is what keeps me innovative and productive, then rejection was the best thing that happened to me early on in my graphic-novel career. See, I had pipe dreams of becoming a penciler for The Fantastic Four, and I wanted to be the next Jack Kirby. Alas, I wasn’t good enough and, despite my unyielding commitment to create stories, failure forced me to think different, strive harder, and, ultimately, manifest a unique sensibility to brand and barter with. After he proved himself on Daredevil, it was Frank Miller’s vision that sold Batman and that profound success gave him latitude to create the hard-boiled Sin City series, the histrionic 300, and more. Miller’s bold tactics influenced me to take risks and collaborate on semi-autobiographical fare with Harvey Pekar, Jonathan Ames, and Inverna Lockpez, while writing my own semi-auto-bio Street Code, and psychotronic Billy Dogma, sans apology and permission. These days, I get hired by franchise publishers to create mythology for their heroes while drawing for high-profile television shows and develop original content for other print and digital media. I’ve finally come to a crossroad where people are getting unexpurgated Dean Haspiel. AMBER RAE is a starter of meaningful things who lives for inspiring people to chase what makes them feel alive. She accidentally started a “Passion Experiment” business in April 2011 when she decided to turn her love for challenging people to get outside their comfort zone into a four-week program. When she’s not helping people get unstuck, Rae is the chief evangelist of Seth Godin’s Domino Project, a new publishing venture powered by Amazon. She also created revolution.is, a site that curates weekly stories of change- makers and culture-shapers who take initiative and trust their gut to create revolutions in their work. In 2010, Amber turned insomnia into a social movement when she co-founded late-night co-working group NY Nightowls, which is active in 14 countries and 30 cities. Rae has appeared in the New York Times, ABC World News, Forbes, on the BBC, and at TEDxCMU, where she spoke about the art of being unreasonable and how to astray from traditional cultural expectations. 4 5 As the Editorial Director for Yoxi (pronounced “yo-see”), JOSHUA FISCHER specializes in storytelling, content strategy, and concept development.

While autobiographical comics may seem like an odd crib sheet to use to learn about the human condition, their confessional style provides readers like me with the answers to the questions we dare not ask. I equate reading an autobiographical comic with the occurrence of a stranger handing you his diary, staring meaningfully into your eyes and saying, “I want you to read this… all of it. Oh, and just so you know, I drew pictures of everything that happened, too.” I first became interested in autobiographical comics and graphic novels after reading some of Jeffrey Brown’s comics in 2005. There was something about his loose, sketchbook-style illustrations that made his work accessible to a newly minted comics fan such as myself. There were no superpowers, no buxom women and no maniacal villains in his comics… just real stories. Right when I was on the brink of exhausting Brown’s catalogue, Peter Birkemoe, the co-owner of The Beguiling1, suggested that I expand my interests. When he rang up my latest purchase, he said, “If you like this stuff, you should try reading some John Porcellino.” I promptly swept up Porcellino’s King-Cat Classix: The Best of King-Cat Comics and Stories and I soon discovered other autobiographical cartoonists including Chester Brown, Joe Matt, Lucy Knisley and Harvey Pekar.

  • The Alcoholic Q&A with Author Jonathan Ames and Artist Dean Haspiel
    The Alcoholic Q&A with author Jonathan Ames and artist Dean Haspiel Q. Jonathan, you’ve written for TV, including an HBO pilot you’re filming this fall called Bored To Death; newspapers, including a column for the NY Press; and are the author of numerous books of essays and fiction including, What’s Not To Love? and Wake Up Sir! Now, a graphic novel? How did this happen? Ames: It happened because my good friend Dean Haspiel kept suggesting that we collaborate. I've always been a fan of Charles Bukowski and had seen some stories of his which were accompanied by illustrations from R. Crumb, so the idea of doing something similar with Dean appealed to me. Then Dean illustrated Harvey Pekar's The Quitter for Vertigo/DC and one day he brought me in to meet his editor for lunch and I don't know what we ate, but over the course of the meal, I suddenly had this idea for a comic about an alcoholic, called The Alcoholic; in my mind, it would be a perils-of-Pauline sort of tale—the alcoholic always in danger and getting into trouble, and this idea further blossomed and became the book . Q. Jonathan, the protagonist, Jonathan A. looks a lot like you, but the work is fictional. How much of the character really is you? Ames: Well, we share a lot of the same emotional DNA and we've had some similar experiences, but we are quite different in many ways and so he's his own strange person.

  • JM. Dematteis
    BIBLIOGRAFIA DI J. M. DeMATTEIS A cura di: Gabriele ʿTermidoroʾ Perlini - mail: [email protected] Prima stesura: ottobre 2009 - Secondo aggiornamento: gennaio 2021 Ritenuto uno dei più grandi scrittori di Spider-Man, secondo solo a Stan Lee, il nome di J. M. DeMATTEIS è legato indissolubilmente alle gestioni ragnesche degli anni ʿ90 grazie ai cicli di storie in coppia con Sal Buscema e Mark Bagley, cui si annoverano i capolavori "The Child Within ", "Best Of Enemies " e "The Gift ". Scrivendo di un Peter Parker più adulto e massiccio come mai sino ad allora, l'autore si era aggiudicato qualche anno prima il successo grazie alla tragica saga "Kraven's Last Hunt " mentre, poco dopo, sarà la volta della miniserie "The Lost Years ". Sul fronte editoriale opposto si trovano lavori più divertenti ed ironici quali la Justice League International, scritta nella seconda metà degli anni ʿ80 insieme al fidato Keith Giffen, che ha valso alla coppia la nomination per l'Eisner Award come miglior albo singolo grazie al primo numero della loro gestione. Sempre per le più note case editrici americane di fumetti si ricordano gli indelebili cicli di Captain America e The Defenders per la Marvel ed i personaggi mistici della DC quali The Spectre, Dr. Fate, The Phantom Stranger e la Justice League Dark. Brevi incursioni si sono comunque avute anche in personaggi più classici come Batman e Superman. Per le case editrici minori citiamo la sfortunata Abadazad, The Stardust Kid, Hero Squared e The Life And Times Of Savior 28. Difficile poi dimenticare i progetti più personali dell'autore come l'evocativo Moonshadow, Blood: A Tale, Mercy, Seekers Into The Mystery e l'autobiografico Brooklyn Dreams.

    Superheroes in Gotham Selected PR Images from the New‐York Historical Society Exhibition (October 9, 2015 – February 21, 2016) Jerry Siegel (writer) and Joe Shuster (artist), Action Bob Kane and Bill Finger Batman (No. 1, Spring Comics (No. 1, June 1938). Published by Detective 1940). Published by Detective Comics, Inc., New Comics, Inc., New York. Courtesy of York. Serial and Government Publications Division, Metropoliscomics.com. Library of Congress, Washington D.C. Superman first appeared in the wake of the Great Depression in Action Comics (No. 1). Instantaneously popular, Superman and his crime‐fighting adventures became prototypes for the superheroes that followed. In 1939, Batman was introduced in Detective Comics (No. 27) and soon after Batman (No. 1) was published. A brooding, urban vigilante, who was also adept at using state‐of‐the‐art technology, Batman’s story spoke to many of the challenges of modern city life. Within a year of his debut, Batman earned his own comic book series. Jerry Siegel with his typewriter, ca. 1943. Collection of Steve Soboroff. H. G. Peter, Drawing of Wonder Woman in Costume, ca. 1941. Courtesy of Metropoliscomics.com. Wonder Woman was introduced to the American public in 1941 in All Star Comics (No. 8). This drawing depicts an early iteration of her patriotic costume. Wonder Woman debut coincided with the United States’ entry into World War II. Many early superhero artists served in the military during the war and adapted their superhero characters for army training manuals and military newspapers. Superman creator Jerry Siegel enlisted in the United States Army in 1943 and wrote regular columns for several military newspapers, including Stars & Stripes and Yank.
