Writing, editing, storytelling, and more from Jim Gibbons
I got so excited thinking about All Day Pizza Buffet‘s future and drawing on the commute that I doodled this up with some ballpoint pens on the back of a press release at my desk.

Here’s the deal…
I’ve been extremely busy over the past few weeks, which is usually a good things—especially when it is the “fun busy” that I’ve been—but it has really cut back on mt drawing time. My busy-ness had me playing around with the idea of picking up a simple and small drawing project I could focus on in my spare time. Combine that with recently discovering Post-it Note Stories and being completely blown away by the expressive simplicity used to tell really fun little stories on little yellow squares and Drawn!: The illustration & Cartooning Blog linking artist Ryan Pequin’s simple—and simply awesome—five-minute comics (See those now at www.threewordphrase.com), then toss in a suggestion by my girlfriend about how much time I could spend drawing if I utilized my commute time for doodling…
And Bam! All Day Pizza Buffet was—kind of—born!

It’s been a full week since Chicago Comic-Con, but it’s taken me about that long to fully recover from all the wedding and convention festivities of the past weekend. Now that my brain is actually functioning again, I figured I’d put up a short series of posts relating some of my best stories from that manic five day funfest—and what better place to start than Lando Calrissian himself, Billy Dee Williams!

Though this past weekend was maddeningly crazy/busy, it wasn’t without some completely great and memorable moments. One of those moments was being interviewed for the UFragTV live stream from Chicago Comic-Con. The interview was a bit longer, but this is the only bit I can find over at http://ufragtv.com…

I’m sitting in Chicago’s O’Hare airport waiting for a flight back to New Jersey after one of the most madcap weekends of my entire life. From one heckuva wedding in Wisconsin to Chicago Comic-Con and everything in between, it has been wildly hectic but extremely fun and truly great! I’ll put up plenty of recaps and storytelling posts about all the insanity when I have a chance, but for now…I leave you with this…
…Electric Manhole!
Seriously, “very, very soon” is most definitely the case…stay tuned!
It’s the blog’s first major milestone, so I thought I’d do a brief back-patting post and thank you all for your patronage of my site!

Two weeks ago, I put up a blank comic strip and asked for readers like you to submit a strip for it. Now, I’ve got some results.

This past Saturday at Wizard World Philadelphia, I hosted the “Battlestar Galactica” panel featuring Edward James Olmos (Admiral William Adama), Michael Hogan (Colonel Saul Tigh), Nicki Clyne (Crewman Specialist Cally Henderson) and Luciana Carro (Captain Louanne ‘Kat’ Katraine)—easily the highlight of my entire career at Wizard and the greatest nerd moment of my life.
I’ve been bubbling with excitement over all the little intricacies and amazing moments of the hour I sat on stage with the foursome of Galactica crew members, and figured I’d sit down and write my official documentation of this momentous story. I managed not to completely freak out in a fanboy fit while hosting, so I think I’ve earned the right to gush a little bit here—and gush I shall.
Also, there will be some “BSG” plot spoilers ahead, as we talked about the series finale and the upcoming DVD “The Plan,” so be forewarned.
