Where is everybody today?? It’s quiet everywhere! Online, on the streets, on the trains… was everyone invited to a big shindig and my invitation got lost?! sheeeesh!
In other news… I ordered my Sun Lamp last night. Should get it next week. Yes, we’re already very close to the end of the darkness, but it will still be a welcome relief. I had googled a site that lists the sunrise and set in Montreal on a weekly basis, and it was very happy news to see the daylight time extend so much… small pleasures 🙂
Let’s see…. what else…
I got my copy of Zodiac Killer signed by Gabriel yesterday afternoon and read it on the train home last night. Wow. Chilling stuff. The book itself is nicely produced except for one big thing: the fonts they used for the lettering were TOO large. Ick. Very much distracted from the story and the artwork. Of course, the fact that I found 2 spelling mistakes was both jarring and surprising. At any rate, I’m happy with it (even if Gaby’s drawing to me was a little “scary” 🙂 )
Speaking of upcoming work by Gaby, he sent me the link for Egide – his upcoming work with Editions Delcourt. You can see some interior work as well as the great cover Gaby provided for T.1
I read a couple of books earlier this week that my buddy Francisco gave me: a couple of volumes of Torpedo 1936 which were highly entertaining and quite fitting to the “era”, as well as t.2 of XIII which turned out to be really gripping! I’ve gotta get some more of those tomes!
