Cartoonstock & Jantoo January 2014 statement

January 2014 was not a bad month for me as Cartoonstock licensed fifteen of my cartoons and Jantoo five of my cartoons.  Customers licensed my cartoons for educational uses (cartoon use in classroom material), for commercial newsletters, various online uses and one big sale to a book publisher.

The Adventures of Jasper, by Glen Lovett

By chance, I happened to see an article of fellow Aussie Cartoonist Glen Lovett who now lives in Canada.

Glen is an amazing artist and I've ordered the first two books (graphic novels) of his "The Adventures of Jasper" series:

  1. Lost in Skookum Valley
  2. Secrets of the Petroglyph

Glen was kind enough to sign them for me and my kids (10 and 13). We all love the books!

The drawings are beautiful, the stories engaging, so yes, both books are excellent!

If you are a fan of Franco/Belge "Bande Dessinees", like me, you will enjoy these books!

Glen is currently drawing the third adventure of Jasper which will be set in Australia. Can't wait to see it finished so that I can order it!

Check Glen's Website and Blog for more details...

Glen has agreed to an interview for Inkspot, the magazine of the Australian Cartoonists' Association. I am looking forward to sending Glen lots of questions and have more insights into his creative process.

Pandeia by Paul Caggegi

Paul Caggegi is a very talented Australian cartoonist and I've had the chance to meet Paul when he helped me at the Top Ryde Shopping Centre Cartoon Exhibition back in August 2013 (photos here and here).

Paul is running a Kickstarter campaign to print the first book of his Pandeia graphic novel: Click Here!
