Stuff Said 042: Chris Duffy

SHOW NOTES: Chris Duffy on Twitter (and his very old blog, and (even older, still) live journal). SpongeBob Comics on Facebook My very first collaboration with Chris, WHAT IF #113, asked, “What if Tony Stark Became Sorcerer Supreme?” (and ranked in someone’s top 10 Marvel stories of all time!): Frank Pittarese appeared on this very show and you can hear that here. Factsheet Five Spit Summer Fun cover (courtesy of Chris Duffy): Harvard University Carol Lay and her weight loss book, THE BIG SKINNY Chris Duffy’s various comics on comicsnation.com, including those mentioned, Kitty Man & Mighty Boots and Power Glove. Here’s one of Chris’s comics from the early ’90s he shared with me/us: Nickelodeon Magazine (read what Dave Roman wrote about the magazine here, and here’s a Buzzfeed article praising it, too) Ann Bernstein, original comics editor for Nick Mag CBS Lite FM The great Craig Thompson did the initial layouts for these Jimmy Neutron comics, which I put “on model” (I’m still looking for copies of those layouts…I know they’re around here somewhere…) in these pencilled pages (click to enlarge): Derek Drymon’s episode of “Stuff Said” is right here. My appearance on Jerzy Drozd’s “Comics are Great” (w/video, if you want to see what I look like via laptop camera). As a kid I bought these comics from 10-to-25 cent bins, mostly because they featured characters I recognized and the covers got my attention: I also have always loved this cover (while I’m at it): Chris’s anthology projects for First Second Books: NURSERY RHYME COMICS, FAIRY TALE COMICS, and ABOVE THE DREAMLESS DEAD Project Guttenberg BIZARRO COMICS Free Comic Book Day, May 3, 2014.
