Sports in Brooklyn: 6




Football drills yesterday. Since I've moved to America, I've learned that Football = Fall. Which is most welcome.

Book Review illustration



Here's an illustration that'll be in this weekend's Washington Post BookWorld section. Book reviews, I think, are the most fun editorial jobs because you get to delve into a narrative and not worry about conveying every idea in the article.

I am attempting to pull back a bit and bring my work back to a "clearer" line. The thing with that technique is that it requires extremely careful colour-picking, which can be a bit laborious. Then, um, the art director (the lovely Beth Broadwater) informed me it was actually supposed to be black and white. Whoops. Read your emails carefully, kids.

Also, this video. NSFW? Kind of? Do photoshopped scenarios count? I guess you'll have to use your discretion. Regardless: helpful!

I'm really happy to announce that there will be some foreign translations of Skim, including French and Spanish. The UK, Australia, and NZ will also be getting a special edition (will "truck" become "lorry"? I don't know!!). Casterman is handling the French edition. You can read about it ici. Skim will be part of their "Ecritures" series, which includes books by Seth, Craig Thompson, and Ben Katchor and Chester Brown.

Here's the cover of the french edition (apparently available Aug 20):
