Musings about some of my favorite fantasy literature for young readers, comics old and new, the peculiar publishing industry, the future of books, kids today, and the writing process.
From Van Jensen's preview of his comic Pinocchio: Vampire Slayer, drawn by Dusty Higgins, to be issued in print this fall by SLG Publishing.

Joss Whedon is going to either sue Dusty Higgins for everything he's got or just roll around on the floor laughing his butt off.
I have never been so excited in all my life.
I seem to recall in the first issue of "Soulsearchers and Company", the villain uses magically animated toys as weapons, and has a bunch of wooden puppets kill one of his victims (all children's TV hosts IIRC) by having them tell lies and then stabbing him to death with their elongated pointy noses.
Thanks for the interest in our book, everyone!
