With @scottylobdell in Palm Springs this weekend.
In 1996, I met Scott at a comic-con in St. Louis and gave him a copy of my recently self-published Cosmic Toast book. He took that thing back to New York, showed it around the Marvel offices, and it caught the eye of a young editor named Jason Liebig @collectingcandy. Through some shady and mysterious occult practices, Jason somehow got the Generation X Underground Special one-shot comic approved and we were off to the races! I was still in college at the time, so in-between school assignments I would write, pencil, ink, and letter what would turn out to be one of the, um...more bizarre things Marvel has ever published, I guess? And that was the beginning of that. 20 fucking years ago. Hard to believe. Still buddies with Scott and Jason after all these years, and always a pleasure to bump into them out there in the surreal world.
