It’s been a little while since the last issue came out, but by Bret Blevins many things have been happening here at DRAW! central since our last issue. WThis issue we also welcome two new regular contributors to the pages of DRAW! to sit at the table every month: Danny (Write Now!) Fingeroth and Bob (Rough Stuff) McLeod. The “Rough Critique” lessons Bob started in Rough Stuff will continue here in DRAW!, and Danny will offer regular interviews with comic personalities and artists. So while those two fellows’ respective TwoMorrows magazines have stopped pub- lication for now, it’s great that both Danny and Bob can continue to bring their great con- tributions to the study, appreciation, and learning of the art form to the pages of DRAW! Also while we were away, I started a new regular job (one, it seems, of many). I am the new artist on the Judge Parker newspaper strip, and I decided to do an article this issue on doing the strip and all that entails. There are many more things underway here, and I plan on making the DRAW! magazine blog much more active this year. So stop on by http://draw-magazine.blogspot.com and leave a comment to let me know what you are looking for as far as learning, articles, tips, and interviews.
