Swollen Think Tank!
As indicated by the title of this post, my mind is over-filled with new ideas. Too many, in fact.
I find myself having to write things down just to keep them organized.
For example, last night as I was planning out my layout for this site, when I was hit with an epiphany. It was an idea for a new anti-hero group.
(Anti- hero meaning having a reluctance to be the hero.)
So, I stopped what I was doing and sketched out six new teen aged characters to add to my portfolio.
I'll give you a rundown and sketch pics later on down the road as they are in their rough idea stages. Just know that the working title of the group will be called "The Lost Causes".
I haven't decided whether it's going to be a written story or maybe a manga idea. We shall see.

My office mate just returned from his vacation. He had attended the Comic Con in San Diego, as part of his trip.
While he was there, he picked up a gift for me that was unexpected and greatly appreciated.
He got me a copy of the new Wild CATS comic, issue #1 signed by the creator, Jim Lee.
For those of you who don't know who that is, he took over X-Men before starting his own company with seven other visionaries known as Image Comics. More importantly, Jim Lee created the character you all know as Grifter, my alter ego here.
Needless to say I was pretty stoked when he gave that to me. Big ups to my friend!

I'd better get going. My think tank is starting to run all over the desk.
Where the hell is my pen?!

Later.
