Some weeks ago I sent you an e-mail telling you how unfortunate it was we never saw that issue and the whole "time-traveling" story arc how it was intended; it`s been recenlty I went back to reading comic books, but Swam Thing (both by Alan and you) is my favorite, along with Doom Patrol by Grant Morrison and Jamie`s Hellblazer. Maybe when my sci-fi novel is finished and I can afford, I will give you a comission for the cover. I`d love to make you part of my own life. Great artwork, by the way.

Great artwork, by the way.

I like Cansons other drawing papers. Currently I buy an over-sized pad of Strathmore paper and then cut it in half for good-sized pages. I use a heavy stock template to pencil in my 10 x 15 image area and then I'm off to the races. Thanks for the tech side of this. Thanks Rick. I like Cansons other drawing papers.

I haven't tried BlueLine, so I'm not sure how it measures up there. I've used a lot of the DC paper and it compares favorably to that. Seems to be able to take a beating with the pencil and spring back nicely for inking. The nice folks at Canson sent me some samples to try, so the price was right!

Does it hold up well? Smooth or rough? Is it cheap like the BlueLine board that's out there or is it decent? Rick,
