So I have few things to announce here of trivial importance.

• Guess what? I have a facebook artist page. I have so many friends on facebook, I figured it was time I added my tiny shrill whining demand for attention to the mawing din that is the facebook monster. Right now it is just hooked into the mleiv.com feed, but who knows, maybe it will mutate into something more.
• Guess what? mleiv.com is now also iphone friendly. I know, I know, what's next? Twitter? Just cut me some slack; I work in technology and my peripheral exposure to all of this trendy bullshit eventually does wear me down.
• Guess what? I'm not at Comic-Con. I know, I've never been at Comic-Con. In fact, I've never been to a convention at all since the one time I went to Life, The Universe, and Everything as a teenager. Oh, and all those times I went to Comdex, but that's a different sort of beast. Anyway, since I finished Book #1 and started reading comics like mad, I actually am a little sad that I'm not there. Everyone else is. :( And my only opportunities for dressing up like slutty scifi characters are the occasional Halloween charity ball (which is really No Fun At All). And the last time I had someone be mean about my artwork to my face was in college. So I am really missing out here. ;) I will be crying quietly in my corner as I read the AV Club coverage.
• And speaking of Joss Whedon's Dollhouse, I've been rereading Gibson's Neuromancer. I gotta give some cred to BladeRunner, but Neuromancer definitely does seem to be the basis for 99% of my favorite scifi shows. I'd totally forgotten about the meat puppets, and I gotta say Whedon, you missed whole avenues there with the simstim actors. I mean, would you rather screw a puppet Scarlet Johansson, or hook in and BE a puppet Ryan Reynolds screwing Scarlet Johansson? Maybe I just have body issues, but the latter sounds a lot more awesome to me.

Anyway, so there's all the insignificant news. Go about your business. This is (sadly) not the Famous Comics Artist at Comic-Con that you were looking for...
