Supernaturally

Because I don't have nearly enough distractions, I've finally made good on a (half-joking) threat: I've started a blog devoted to comic-book cover art and design. It's called Comics, Covered, appropriately enough.

I've archived my cover-related entries there, and this afternoon I posted pieces on The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service Vol. 1 and Fables Vol. 7. This evening, I'll probably have something about the cover to American Virgin #1. (I really need to come up with a synonym for cover -- "jacket," maybe? -- otherwise, the repetition is likely to drive me insane.)

I don't have a detailed content plan yet, but Comics, Covered will be more than a place for me to write, "Gee, look at all the pretty pictures" every time a publisher releases solicitations. Oh, there'll undoubtedly be a little of that, particularly when I go on about my favorite artists. But I hope the blog will be something with substance, and include worthwhile discussion. Later, I'd like to add some interviews.

Eh, we'll see.

Plus, it'll free up this blog for me to write about other stuff, like my comics projects and The Sopranos and ... stuff. Y'know, stuff.

* But I'm not doing Dark, But Shining anymore, so it all evens out.
