My first Sunday Rugrats Cartoon

One of my favorite Working Daze strips....

Shannon and I determine who will write the next chapter in one of our books...

Signing books at Wegmans with my niece Natalia (on my wife's side) Padilla -- who was the inspiration for Carol (the one who becomes The RadioActive Redhead.)

Natalia is much more comfortable in front of the camera than I am...
