I first read about this show HBO show TALKING FUNNY from this article: Seven Things Designers Can Learn from Stand Up Comics by Michael Bierut. (read the article at observersroom.designobserver.c… )
As Bierut said in his article, he didn't really intend to find any designer-related-lessons from watching the show, but he ended up finding these seven:
1. It's all about the basics.
2. Once you've mastered the basics, make your work your own.
3. Respect your audience.
4. Know your tools.
5. Honor your craft.
6. Don't be afraid of failure.
7. Finally, never forget you have a special gift.
Looking at these seven lessons, I thought that they also applied to making comics and advertising.

Editor at Large
It's been a week since Summer Komikon 2012 and I haven't had the chance to talk about the comic books that we launched.
http://tresekomix.blogspot.com/2012/06/editor-at-large.html
Me and Kajo had this grand plan to release the new Trese book last week, but several things kept me busy and we were only able to release "Maverick Rider", the first case from what will be Trese Book 5.
Aside from my wonderful dayjob, my nights were filled with editing the following comic book projects:

Yesterday, I received an email from Ms. Eileen Sy, http://tresekomix.blogspot.com/2012/03/keep-on-drawing.html who accused me of influencing the decision of which people would get interviewed by C.B. Cebulski in his recent search for Marvel comic book artists.
Below is the email from Ms. Sy, after which you will read my reply to her, which I have decided to make public.
===================================================
Budjette,
It's a shame that you forcibly included 8 of your buddies out of 34 artists in CB Cebulski's talent search. It can now be explained why more talented people were excluded.

"A characteristic of artistic education is for people to tell you that you're a genius. [...] So everybody gets this idea, if you go to art school, that you're really a genius. Sadly, it isn't true. Genius occurs very rarely. So the real embarrassing issue about failure is your own acknowledgement that you're not a genius, that you're not as good as you thought you were. [...] There's only one solution: You must embrace failure. You must admit what is. You must find out what you're capable of doing, and what you're not c
