"I think the practice of just showing pictures of products and then expecting potential customers to want to buy them is a bit old fashioned. The idea of the LW Universe cartoons is that they demonstrate art and craftsmanship, values that we clearly want to be associated with. We also feel they provide some interest and entertainment and, while they might not immediately convey the message 'buy, buy, buy,' they definitely create an interest in the brand and make it memorable."

Good morning, my Field Roasts of doom
For the folks who aren't familiar with Mr. Ellis and his work, just know the introduction to the recipe section likened him to "Gordon Ramsay on a bad day with a dash of Sweeney Todd." Here's his tip for getting pomegranate seeds out: "Chop the pomegranate in half, like you were hacking the head off a fanboy…Repeatedly beat the top of the pomegranate with a wooden spoon, as if attempting to cudgel a small child to death." See why I love him?
There were about 2o people there that I knew from comics, like former DC editor Alisa Kwitney, and DC's Karen Berger and Richard Bruning, above. I talked to them, as well as Paul Levitz, Jackie Estrada, Batton Lash, Charles Vess (and his wife Karen), Michael Zulli, Larry Marder, Bob Schreck, Chip Kidd, Denis Kitchen and I'm sure others I'm forgetting at the moment. There were also groups of people there from the book publishing world, as well as authors, friends from England, the US, and perhaps elsewhere.
MARKO DJURDJEVIC TV INTERVIEW (Video)
Just over a week ago, the below interview and story on illustrator Marko Djurdjevic ran on Prime TV. While it was obviously created a few years back, by it's original network, it is still an amazing insight on Marko's thoughts on the industry, how he got 'discovered' and how he creates his stunning artwork.
It's been another exciting year for graphic books. It began in January, when Yen Press announced it would print 350,000 copies of its adaptation of the novel "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer. Readers later witnessed the struggles of a Jewish rug maker in "Market Day," by James Sturm. They were treated to Dash Shaw's stylized "Bodyworld." And they met the misanthrope known as "Wilson" in the latest from Daniel Clowes. The year closes with a mix of social issues, superheroes, slackers and Shakespeare.
Dream becomes reality for Scottish manga creator
"I'm from a generation of British people where almost all boys and girls read comic books. It's not really the case now, in Britain, but growing up in the late '70s, early '80s, everyone read comic books, and my friends and I decided that we wanted to be comic book creators."
