ARCHIE SHOULD HAVE PICKED JUGHEAD
Color Commentary by Michael Troy, posted June 23rd, 2009
I am not a political person, per se. I used to joke that I wouldn't even be able to pick Laura Bush out of a line-up! Having done work like The Blonde Squad, Crotchmen, and Homo-Hero's Big Book of Fun and Adventure, most of my stuff is meant for pure entertainment. Oh sure, I am obsessed with pop culture and like to throw in plenty of satire, but I don't think the New Yorker will be ringing me up for my political cartoons anytime soon.  Every once in a while though… [More…]

WHO AM I?
Queer Eye on Comics by Mark Phillips, posted June 14th, 2009
I have read in the past where Spider-Man, everyone's favorite webhead, was considered to be the Everyman. This is in large because of the large number of things that have happened to him over the years, hardships which that they considered made it easier for readers to be able to identify with him. Well, that might have a small bit of truth due to occasionally my having sticky hands, but other than that I find myself having a hard time identifying with Peter Parker and have the open arms… [More…]

BLONDES AWAY! THE BLONDE SQUAD EXPLODES INTO THE SPOTLIGHT
Color Commentary by Tony Smith, posted June 11th, 2009
To paraphrase Richard Nixon, “I am not a blonde. I have never been a blonde.” Fortunately that won’t stop non-blondes from enjoying the first issue of Michael Troy’s deeply superficial comic book, The Blonde Squad. If you think dumb blondes with superpowers haven’t been funny since the sixties, Michael Troy gleefully challenges your preconceptions. The opening scene takes what is a superhero cliché in team comics and puts a hilarious spin on it. Troy introduces his cast and… [More…]
