"I was 15 years old in 1969, and knew nuttin’ about copyright law. Comic Courier #2 needed a cover (and God knows ANYTHING would have been better than the cover I drew for #1). I found a really cool Frank Frazetta illustration on page 164 of a copy…"
"A classic fan illustration by comic artist extraordinaire Bill Fugate. This appeared, full-page, in Comic Courier #6 (the Blackhawk issue.) Bill works can be seen all over the Internet (and in print, of course, also). On Facebook, you can find Bill…"
"Batman, originally for the cover of INTEROUT #1 (never published). Early 70s. Pencils by Mark Ammerman. Inks by Brian Lees. Anyone know who it was that had HOPED to publish INTEROUT? I can't remember!"
"This remarkable Blackhawk (and Lady Blackhawk) fan illustration by Canadian artist Vincent Marchesano graced the cover of Comic Courier 6 (the Blackhawk edition), which also featured a Blackhawk paradody (called The Blackhonks) written and pencilled…"
"JONAH HEX by David Simons and Mark Ammerman, back in '75. This is a previously unpublished illustration slated for the second edition of the Wonderful World of the Wild and Wicked West. The edition was complete (laid out and edited by Mark), but…"
"I showed this envelope to my boys the other day. "Do you know who this is?" I asked, pointing to the return address. The post date on the envelope is Oct. 20, 1969. Sad to think of the old man sitting now alone in his New York apartment, dreaming…"
"Unpublished Chris Warner sketches from mid 70s (on top of original art for Moon Knight #1, p 33). This sketch (and many others in my archives) was sent to me by Mike Graycar (best-buddy, co-editor and then editor of CC's swansong edition), when he…"

"Well, Bob, you've accomplished your goal. And that goal is especially foundational for cover art, posters, splash pages, full-pagers and the like. To fill an entire page (or entire story) of comics with such images lays a bit of a burden on the…"
"Captivating piece of work, Bob. There's a powerful simplicity to this image. Great use of color...great sense of movement.
As I've looked through your "photos", I am very impressed by your ability to capture, illustrate and frame a dramatic moment.…"

Hi ya, I know you like Christian comics so I know you'll love The Word for WORD Bible Comic, (Unabridged, historically accurate graphic novel of the Bible with a high view of scripture. For ages 15+)
To complete the first book I need your help, as I am raising funds on Kickstarter. My passion is to get God's Word in full into the hands of young believer and unbelievers and comic lovers of all ages, in the hope they will come to really know God. Please check it out at the KS page, it's going well but I still need lots of backers so I hope as a CCAS member you'll please pledge to support this project...

Consider the words of C.S. Lewis:
"If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and to earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I suggest that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased."
