Thanks for asking guys. That means a lot. At some point they will be for sale on the Indy Planet website store. I have done my part to get it listed. Just waiting for them to do their part now.

The best I can offer now, is, if you mail me a check for $4, I can mail you one. If you intend to do that, private message me and I will be sure to save you one.

My address is

The link to my "store" at Indy Planet is below. Unfortunately, the preview images aren't showing for some reason. However, the comics turned out nice and can be ordered from there.

Aha! This proves that reading comic books can boost your vocabulary!

In my own words, eclectic means "a little of everything" or "a whole bunch of things.

The dictionary says

ec·lec·tic Audio Help /ɪˈklɛktɪk/ [i-klek-tik] Pronunciation Key
–adjective
1. selecting or choosing from various sources.
2. made up of what is selected from different sources.
3. not following any one system, as of philosophy, medicine, etc., but selecting and using what are considered the best elements of all systems.
4. noting or pertaining to works of architecture, decoration, landscaping, etc., produced by a certain person or during a certain period, that derive from a wide range of historic styles, the style in each instance often being chosen for its fancied appropriateness to local tradition, local geography, the purpose to be served, or the cultural background of the client.
–noun
5. Also, ec·lec·ti·cist /ɪˈklɛktəsɪst/ n[i-klek-tuh-sist] a person who follows an eclectic method, as in philosophy or architecture.
[Origin: 1675–85; < Gk eklektikós selective, equiv. to eklekt(ós) chosen, select (eklég(ein) to pick out + -tos ptp. suffix; see ec-) + -ikos -ic]

This is for an upcoming issue of Fun for Kids magazine. The whole issue will have the theme of "Reading Fun" and my assignment was to create a comic strip with that theme. I really think it's the best thing I've ever done for them.

My lettering will never be great, but I think this is my best lettering ever and I owe it to the voice of cartoonist Joey Weiser that was ringing in my ear: "Draw those words, dont' write them." Son of a gun, that really does help.

One of the thing I like about working for Fun for Kids is that they buy one-time use and I retain rights of my work. I will also put it in a future Eclectic comic. But the traditional size format is bigger! I stole a trick from the old newspaper comics and the top panels on every page are expendable. I like what they add, but the comic works without them.
