The February 4th dinner meeting of the world’s greatest cartoonists was fun and we left full of pizza!

Adam Shaw spoke about the graphic novel he painted for HARPE, written by Chad Kinkle. The novel is available at Comics and Collectibles, The Comics Cellar, Davis-Kidd, and Amazon.

There was a great review online.

Martheus Wade announced that “Defiance,” the movie based on Jetta: Tales of the Toshigawa, has been cast. (Happy 40th Birthday, Antone!)

Matt Ryan showed off his fabulous nails as he mentioned his title as Sequential Art and plans to bring more folk from Memphis College of Art.

Andrew Chandler continued our history of napkin doodles!

Hey, gang,

Time to go pirate a movie and set your VCR’s! I’m kiddin’ about the first part. Also, I’ve read HARPE and it is amazing. Not for the children, but based on historic events…go get you one!

A painting I worked on is in the new Tennessee Williams movie “Loss of
a Teardrop Diamond”. The character of “Jimmy”, played by Chris Evans,
is looking up at the portrait in one of the first scenes. I’m
actually in the credits. The movie was directed by Memphian Jodie
Markell. It’s playing at the Malco Ridgeway.

Also on the 26th of January there is another signing for Harpe at
Davis Kidd at 6pm. Chad and I will be on Live at 9 that morning on
Channel 3.

Thank you.

-Adam

Also, Lin and I are looking for a copy of the screenplay to “London After Midnight,” so if you can direct us to it, please write to webmaster@midsouthcartoonists.com with details.
