Albany Hijinx for NY Mag

Mister Goldman — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 15:02:46 +0000

This week I did a illustration for NY Magazine accompanying the Intelligencer piece about the rudderless circus of New York State’s government; I’m particularly found of the skronky scrollpen flourishes going on here, reflecting the amount of Ornette Coleman here in the studio this past week. You can read the whole piece here:

Justice Sotomayor for the Intelligencer

I drew a portrait of the newly-appointed Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor for the Intelligencer section of this week’s New York Magazine; unfortunately the drawing was trimmed for size in the print magazine, but it accompanies the article in full bloom on the web. Click below to embiggify:

Me & MOCCA, 2009

Mister Goldman — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 20:38:39 +0000

My favorite of our hometown comic shows, the MoCCA Festival, is this weekend (June 6th & 7th), located at the 69th Regiment Armory (Lexington Avenue & 25th Street) in New York City. While I won’t have a table of my own (how bourgeois!), I will be signing with my brothers-in-webcomics ACT-I-VATE (table #311) on Saturday from 3-4pm. Otherwise I’ll be walking the show just like you, so if you see me, come say hello… I look just like that picture to the right.

Brought in for the “Comic Book Bootcamp,” I’ll be working with students alongside my dear friend Joshua Dysart, artist Ron Wimberly and Vertigo Editor Pornsak Pichetshote.

Miami Kudos

My hometown paper The Miami Herald gave my work on 08 props today; from my Brooklyn studio I can hear my parents kvelling:

Toronto Loves Me Back

Mister Goldman — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 20:28:19 +0000

My affection for Toronto is no secret, having visited twice last year (and again next month for TCAF), so it’s great to read things like this review from Sunday’s Toronto Star:

Archived at the New York Historical Society

Mister Goldman — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 16:38:29 +0000

At our Book Court signing last night, Michael Crowley and I presented a signed copy of 08 to Alan Balicki of the New York Historical Society, who will place the book in their permanent archives as a historical record of the 2008 presidential election… in comics form.

Alan rattled off an incredible list of people who’d dedicated printed materials with the phrase “Presented to the NY Historical Society” before us and it’s an honor to be a part of that tradition:

Rachel Maddow Shakes Her Fist
