I consider myself a Wally Wood fan (with several originals of my own) but... I didn't know about this. Apparently in the early 60's Wally pitched a Sunday newspaper strip showcasing famous people, and made up some presentation pieces, like this one.

I’m wondering if any children’s publishers need a freelance writer to write reading scheme books for them or branded picture books etc? I’ve written reading scheme books for Star Wars and Disney before! Any shares would be amazing!

I can't find my glasses.
Our tiny little tabby cat, Willow, curled up on a cream striped knitted blanket on the arm of the sofa. She's lying on my glasses, they're lens down, arms up, so the arms are on either side of her front legs.

Thanks to everyone who jumped on this! If you missed your chance, I'll probably open the store again sometime in late November for Xmas-type ordering.

David Bromberg - I Like To Sleep Late In The Morning

Chatting with the audience without missing a beat of that intricate picking pattern. The man makes it look easy, which it damned sure isn't. his left thumb looks like it's both telescopic & double-jointed.

Tony: Where are we?

Captain: We're travelling at 22 and a half knots, latitude 43 by 7 and longitude 4 by 8. We're 33 and a half miles from France and 3 miles off the North Med lightship, in 2 and a half hours we'll be docking in Marseille at 19.07 hrs

Tony: A bit vague, innit?
