Rob Hanes Adventures

Just finished reading issues 1-4 of Rob Hanes Adventures. Good stuff, reminiscent of Milton Caniff or Alex Toth. A web site I was looking at a while ago described it as “Jonny Quest, all grown up and packing heat.” Fair enough. Published by WCG Comics. Their web site seems to be done right now, unfortunately.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

I caught a cold Friday, so I’ve just been taking it easy all weekend, drinking orange juice and reading comics. I read the Planetary Vol. 2 hardcover yesterday, and Tim Truman’s Black Lamb series today. Both were excellent.

I found all six issues of Black Lamb in somebody’s dollar box at a convention in NYC a few months ago. I don’t recall seeing any mention of this series when it first came out. Typical good Tim Truman stuff. I would have completely missed it if I hadn’t stumbled across it in that box!

Probably time to take some NyQuil and get off to bed now.

PalmSource

Haven’t blogged in a while. Sorry!

PalmSource was good. Learned a lot. I still haven’t actually written any useful Palm programs yet, but at least I’ve gotten past the “Hello World” stage. I picked up a new i705 while I was out there. It’s pretty neat.

Things I like: rechargeable battery, always-on email, 8MB RAM, SD card slot.

Things I’m not thrilled about: still the same old monochrome screen!
