Zander Cannon Answers Questions about Star Trek: TNG: Ghosts!

It's true, I'm writing a Star Trek miniseries for IDW, and here's the proof! Comic Book Resources has an interview with me about my philosophy and background and how those will come together in a Star Trek book. My guess? Awesomely.

ZANDER CANNON ON “STAR TREK: TNG: GHOSTS”

Pinewood Derby at Pink Hobo -- THIS SATURDAY!

I was never in Boy Scouts as a kid, but I would have considered joining had I known that they get to sit around and race cars all day. The only thing I had was Odyssey of the Mind competitions, where we had to use teamwork and teacher supervision to build a car to solve some sort of science problem. The only problem I wanted to solve was how to kick the competition's ASS. And I wanted to do it ALONE.

That's why the new show at Pink Hobo Gallery is so rewarding. Twenty years out of elementary school and I finally have a legitimate excuse to build and race a car. Granted, I ended up going the artsy-fartsy route and built a car with non-functioning wheels. But the rest of the cars will be racing. And there will be cheering. And screaming. And blood. Well, maybe not blood, but there will definitely be wine.

OPENING RECEPTION
PLACE: Pink Hobo Gallery
ADDRESS: 507 East Hennepin Ave, Mpls, MN
DATE: Saturday, September 19, 2009
TIME: 7pm (Race starts at 10pm)

Manly Tales of Cowardice: The Guest Strip

I'm very excited to be a guest artist in Danno Klonowski's epic 14-page "Guest Artist Spectacular" ... and as luck would have it, my page premieres today!

So head on over to staplegenius.com and see what ol' Fleming Hazmat is up to now.

As an added treat, see if you can figure out what kind of lunch box Mr. Hazmat has taken with him to the logging site.
