Merry Christmas!It was exactly a decade ago that I was up late working on the artwork for these pages of what would be the very first THRILL SEEKER COMICS story that was featured inside SHOOTING STAR COMICS ANTHOLOGY #1. When I was about 13 year's old, I sat at the bus stop and sketched pictures of a martial arts character that would become the Emerald Mantis. I finally had a chance to bring my

I’ve been blogging on and off for over a decade now. At times, the things I write gets personal as I share some part of my life with the world out there. It feels like I’m venting into outer space. It is like placing a message in a bottle and you have no idea who in this world might read it. Someone you don’t know, perhaps YOU whom I’ve never met, reads some very personal matter in my life that

Scott McCullar's G.I. Joe Action Figures, a set on Flickr.For those reading my blog, my next entry will be about collecting G.I. Joe.In the meantime, if you didn't know already, I have an account on Flickr.com where I post a "Joe Pic of the Day" just about daily at my Flickr page. Spotlighted are 12" action figures from my collection that include vintage 1960's and 1970's original G.I. Joe action

ORIGINALLY POSTED August 24, 2007One of my favorite features in COMICS BUYER'S GUIDE magazine each month is when the editor allows a renowned comic book creator to pick their "Top 10 Favorite Comic Book Covers."Since I don’t think they’ll be knocking on my door anytime soon to ask me to offer mine for the magazine, I instead thought it would be fun to go ahead and post them on my blog.Sure,

“Please place your right hand on the iPad and raise your left hand and repeat after me… I do solemnly swear…”[Stop.]Okay. Hope that makes a point for what I thought I would ruminate on tonight.Recently, after eating my donut and drinking a cup of orange juice moments before Sunday School began, I was sitting at the table getting ready for Bible study when an older gentleman walked up to me with

Elvis Presley is the King of Rock’n Roll.I really don’t need to say much more than that. He doesn’t need an introduction.For as far back as my memory allows me to go, his music has been a part of my life. I must have been about four year’s old when I was dancing on the shag rug to “Hound Dog” as the vinyl record spun on Daddy’s high fidelity turntable.Now, I’ve got to forewarn you, I’m going to

ORIGINALLY POSTED JUNE 28, 2011My pal, Erik Burnham, wrote earlier today a blog entry that listed his idea for “Five DC Properties to Make Movies From”. Ironically, just about every day this summer, someone at work, online or the karate dojo has asked me what I thought about THOR, GREEN LANTERN or the new X-MEN: FIRST CLASS movies. (Wait until the end of this blog entry and I will reward you with

I didn't realize it, but June 30th was Social Media Day for the world. I must have unconsciously been in tune with the zeitgeist of the moment, because I woke up Thursday morning pondering social media due to changes going on at work. And in particular, I was thinking about how I personally use social media as a private citizen.Before blogging became a term, I began writing journal articles on my
