Fall in Saint Paul
Some autumn photos from my neighborhood taken while I was happily walking foster dog, Jane. She loved it too.

POPEYE. Terry Beatty. And me.
Remember that "Big Mystery Project" I announced a while back? Finally I've been given approval to spill the beans. Or, rather spill the spinach.
I've written this special POPEYE comic book issue for IDW, in which MARS ATTACKS POPEYE, illustrated by my long-time pal, Terry Beatty.
POPEYE is my all-time favorite character, so this is a tremendous thrill for me.
In
fact, I confess that my hands are shaking as I am clumsily attempting
to type this. In all my long career as a professional writer nothing
has excited me as much as this.
As for the story itself, as Terry himself has already stated, I promise all of you that absolutely no one loves and respects Segar's POPEYE more than Terry and I.
We're doing this right.
