Saw my urologist and got a chance to look at my CT scan. I have a bit of a traffic jam going on in my ureter on my right side. The almost 8mm one is in the lead & the other two following. I have an appointment Aug. 28th to have them blasted out. If things get worse beforehand, off to the ER I go. :(
Rewatching George Miller's Mad Max for the hundreth time and I have to say I love the extreme eyeball close-ups right before deadly impacts in this movie!
I had a few roadside pints here today with Rick Leonardi and his lovely wife and a good time was had by all!
Me on drums at Sun Records Studio in Memphis. I found out afterwards that this was Larry Mullen’s kit of U2 which was used when they recorded in Memphis. Never mind that I don’t have any drum sticks. ;)
Sad to see that Marvel is moving to Burbank but I think at this point it was only a matter of time. At least those who worked there will have their memories and I have many. Here I am in the Bullpen at the left in the picture with JayJay Jackson at the right when Marvel was at 387 Park Avenue South.
Hello again portfolio day, I’m Pat Brosseau, veteran comic book letterer, logo designer and T-shirt designer. #portfolioday
Even though my mystery ailment, or my aching lower abdomen, is most times bothering me, I still like to ride as much as I can. I feel better while riding and it takes my mind off of the pain.
R.I.P., New Zealand actor Sam Neill. I like him in a lot of movies but I love him along with Isabelle Adjani in the psychological horror film Possession.
I've really been enjoying lettering the latest issues of Dick Tracy from Mad Cave by Alex Segura, Michael Moreci, Geraldo Borges, Mark Englert and me. I didn't really enjoying taking it over from the original letterer because of health problems he was having...that said, I hope he gets well soon.
It took me years I tell you--years--to track down all of these Moebius Marvel posters! For those interested, the most hardest ones to find were the Wolverine, Elektra and the most difficult, the Spider-Man!
My initial reaction when I found out one of my regular books is ending soon.
Ugh, see, this is what I HATE about bad AI ads. Everything has that weird brown hue to it, pack as much crap as humanly possible as far as the text goes and the people are posing in basically the same pose. What shit--but, hey, I'm sure they saved a few bucks.
Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends and relatives! Now that I have dual citizenship with Canada it seems fitting for me to celebrate!
A nice shot of the original Moebius card art I bought a few years ago from an art dealer in France.
Some before and after shots of a few pages from X-Men Elsewhen Vol 1. I totally relettered everything and basically used the original pages just as a guide. It was quite the endeavor but once I got going it became easier and easier.
Some scenes from a new book I'm working on for Panick Entertainment! The Accessories #1 written by David Dastmalchian and Leah Kilpatrick, with art by Patrick Piazzalunga, Marco Brakko on colors and me on lettering. In stores August 5th!
George Freeman original art seems difficult to find these days but I bought this ad for Doug Sulipa's Comic World a few years ago. I remember seeing this ad in the back of issues of Captain Canuck when I was a kid. Nice use of zip on this too.
