Hypothetical comic books don't draw themselves!!

I just realized that chair doesn't look like it's from a Russian cockpit anymore.

The chair to which you refer was from a “Russian” catalog, not a Russian plane. Currently it’s out having its base repaired.

Thanks. I misremembered. It gave me the impression of being an airplane seat
and that impression apparently took on a life of its own in my mind. I like it, so
I'm glad to hear it is still around.

Oh, it’s from a plane. Just not a Ruskie. Allegedly a B52.

The hand truck must be for moving reference books.

T’is true I have a lot! But these days, they just gather dust. My iPhone and Google have become my go-to reference. In fact, with such convenience, I find I’m using photos more than ever!

That is exactly like an artists' place should look. My
friends don't appreciate how 'cluttered' I can let
things get, but to me there is order in it.

I sorted the mounds of papers and contract documents piling up on my desk last week and now people think I am quitting or something!

Great to see where the magic gets released. 
JB is that the art board you've always used? If so, it must have put on a few miles of travel. From Canada, the midwest to the east coast. Very cool indeed.

That’s my third board, if we count the small wooden one my parents bought for me when I was about 15. I retired that one in 1977, when I moved back to Calgary. That was when I treated myself to my first big board—the one the drafting machine was attached to—and that’s the one that did the most traveling. It was in turn retired circa 1996, when I bought my current board, to which I transferred the machine.

The “middle” one, on which I did all the X-MEN, FF and ALPHA FLIGHT issues (and the stuff around them) now resides in my basement.
