In Case You Blinked – 12/29/2011

Here are a few items that have popped up around the web that might be of interest.

Comic Book Resources has posted a new interview with me about Fear Itself: The Fearless.
I spoke with Mark Justice and the Pod of Horror about Crooked Hills, The Sixth Gun, Fear Itself: The Fearless and a bunch of other stuff.
I also spent some time talking about writing and The Sixth Gun on Fictional Frontiers.

Now… from the realm of brutal honesty and "It's about damn time"…
It's that time of year when "Best Of" Lists start popping up all over the internet. I'm not going to be modest here. I think The Sixth Gun got robbed of many a nod last year. I've seen a bunch of lists that have popped up this year that are woefully forgetful of my little western/fantasy mash-up. I'm proud of the book. I believe it's one of the best on the market. I could be more humble, sure, but where has that gotten me so far?
Way back during the 1986 Oscars, Paul Hogan made a speech that has stuck with me ever since. Here it is as a point of reference:

Yeah, I feel ya, Crocodile Dundee.

Anyhow, this year, the super-keen website Four Colors & The Truth has posted a list of the Best Comics of the Year and the Best Graphic Novels of the Year. Take a look. The Sixth Gun and The Tooth both make an appearance. Also, CBR is counting down the Top 100 Comics of the Year, and The Sixth Gun comes in at #28! There are some pretty great books on the list, and it's nice to be ranked among them!
