Many years ago I was totally green and somehow was hired by Marvel to ink then draw the Micronauts. Because of the great tutelage of Ralph Macchio and Butch Guice I learned to make comics professionally. This omnibus of those years is on sale now, and I’m grateful.

Happy 75th birthday to John Byrne! The 'Jack Kirby' of my generation when I was a kid devouring his incredible comics off the stands. Nothing got the blood pumping as when a new issue from him came out, as well as when I go back and reread
