Yes, you heard that correctly, THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION: YEAR SEVEN starts this Saturday! This past weekend I sent out the final issue of THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION: THE VERY LONG YEAR SIX. It’s completed. It’s done. It’s also enother Eventual Book finished so look for the paperback and eBook editions later this year. And what’s special about the collected editions? They each contain an exclusive issue only available in the collected edition. Not shared anywhere. Just something between you and me.
YEAR SEVEN is going to be a lot of fun. As per our usual newsletter year-switch routine, we’re changing up the format for the upcoming newsletter year again and the theme/concept is fluidity. What does that mean? The best way to find out the answer is to subscribe to my free weekly newsletter and get a free thriller e-novelette as a thank you for joining.
Canister X Mailbag – Blackthorne No. 5 Unboxing – 03022024
Worst. Fan. Ever. This comic got buried in my studio and was recently unearthed. I feel super bad because Colin Work is a great friend and it was one of his comics. Doh!
Anyway, here it is, the unboxing of BLACKTHORNE comics No. 5.

Last Sunday I once again had the pleasure of being interviewed by Travis Bruce of Horror Realm on YouTube. I was previously on his program discussing GIGANTI-GATOR DEATH MACHINE: TRIPLE FEATURE. This time we talked ZOMTROPOLIS: A RECORD OF LIFE IN A DEAD CITY, being a Youtuber and Funko Pops!
As always, it was a pleasure to hang out with Travis as he and I are very similar in terms of our fandom.

This time we got down to business and talked ZOMTROPOLIS: A RECORD OF LIFE IN A DEAD CITY. I was told the interview will air sometime this weekend so watch this space for a posting when it does.
I’ve done a ton of interviews over the years, everything from a fellow creator’s blog straight through to radio and TV. I’m always open to doing more so if you’re interested in having me on your program or website, please let me know. We can talk books, comics, writing and drawing processes, recent releases, superheroes, monsters, and more!
Many author blogs or websites are just about that: writing and books.
Which is 100% fine. I used to do it. Many others I know still do it. But do you see that site banner up there? It says three things: Writer, Artist, Creator. And it’s the latter part that explains why I don’t just post about books and comics (as awesome as those are).
I’ve talked about it before and I’ll mention it again, this site is about the long game in my creator/creative journey. It’s a showcase of the various crafts I practice. It’s also an information and entertainment source for you.
Why the hotwheels? Why the Funko Pops!? Why the action figures and playing cards? Because the film medium is something I also enjoy. My skillset might not be top-notch (most of what I do behind the scenes is based off what I learned in high school multimedia class 25 years ago . . . and it still works).
These creations and showcases are meant to compliment the books and comics and show that those things are made by a fan for the fans.
Some stumbles across one of my posts via a search engine and soon they are whisked into a realm of heroes and monsters and fandom entertainment. Author blogs can be more than just books and writing, if you want.
It’s that simple.
Like I always say, there’s a method to the madness.
