I only take one 'out' as a father. I use that out for the beach, which means I have to go to parades (and the zoo and to fireworks) with a smile on my face like I am having the time of my life (I don't want to be the dad who only does things he wants to do - but I don't mind being the dad who never goes to the beach).

Riverside Consolidated School Fundraising Comic Book Available NOW

2011-05-03T17:42:00.001-07:00

Instead of making a give-away comic for this year's Free Comic Book Day the Riverside Consolidated School Comic Book Club has created a fundraising comic that is now for sale. For $2.50 you can help support those people that go out of their way to help us.

To get your own copy of the RCS Volunteer Fire Department (for Alma, Riverside-Albert and Hillsborough detachments) and IWK Children's Hospital fundraising comic you can visit the three comic stores in Moncton as well as FolioBooks (next to "Why Are You Cooking?" on St.George, Moncton) and Cover to Cover Books (in Riverview). As of Wednesday afternoon they will be in most of the stores in Hillsborough and they will be available in Riverside-Albert and Alma as well.

To order a copy you can email me at tinglsco@nbed.nb.ca or call the school at 882-3002.

Cover illustrations by Eric Dyck.

Alison Dare, Power Mariah and Jack Hammer in WE FIGHT ROBOTS!

2010-06-08T16:21:00.000-07:00

Alison Dare is not your typical 12-year-old girl. She's the daughter of world-renowned archaeologist Dr. Alice Dare and the masked superhero the Blue Scarab, not to mention the niece of international spy and master of disguise Johnny Dare. Action and awesomeness are in her blood.

Tundra Books are having a blog tour for their new editions of J.Torres' and J.Bone's Alison Dare Graphic Novels and we are on it! The idea is that participating blogs print out selected pictures of Alison Dare and put her in photos that highlight her thirst for adventure.

There is no better way to show a thirst for adventure than to team Alison Dare up with my daughter and son in their super hero identities: Jack Hammer and Power Mariah

This is the video my daughter and I made with the props I made for my Double Blog Dare Tour entry.

You can see my photo entries

Mariah (age 5) and I are exploring the wonders of my new watercolor pencils. They are fun to use, and I like the results. Mariah loves them. I used a ink brush pen and the pencils and she used the pencils and a pink hilighter.

Atomic Robo vs Power Mariah and Jack Hammer...A Battle Royale!

2010-03-26T18:07:00.000-07:00

Click on image to enlarge.

I LOVE Atomic Robo! It is my favourite comic around right now. There are lots of explosions, jokes and monsters for Robo to punch, and the strongest language is the "the H word". I think it is ok for 11 and up.

http://www.atomic-robo.com/

I had him sort of clenching his fost, but it made him look too angry. I am going for an annoyed/exasperated look. I hope it comes across that way.

Disney: STICK!

2010-03-14T10:26:00.000-07:00

Click image to enlarge.

It took a lot to convince him to leave that stick at Frontierland.

This immediately made me think of a story in Planet Sunday Comics by Monty S Kane. I reviewed it a year or so ago and in it there was a universal story about kids and their desire to own every leaf, rock or stick they come across. Every child is different, but most seem to have that urge.

More Disney to come.

Disney was a blast this March Break. First time ever for everyone but me. Did you know they got rid of the 20000 Leagues Under the Sea ride? I was disappointed. On the upside, Small World is really fun. Mariah had us go four times.
