| Publisher Description: Long Pond Road is the first issue of a new ongoing anthology series by cartoonist Todd Webb. This first issue clocks in at 142 pages and features new autobiographical comics, never-before-seen sketchbook material, biographical strips about the artists Georgia O'Keeffe and Ray Johnson, a selection of new drawings, the first 60 pages of Webb's epic in progress - Reading War & Peace, and more Sure to delight fans of all ages, Long Pond Road serves as a catch-all for Webb's harder to find pieces as well as a home for new serializations. "Todd Webb's comics are less about chronicling life's events than expressing an unabashed love of living, good medicine for anyone in a bit of a funk." - Jeffrey Brown, bestselling author of Clumsy and the Vader and Son series. |
Contributor Bio(s): Webb, Todd: - "Todd Webb lives in Virginia, not far from the ocean. He likes monsters, the sunshine, and breathing air. He likes making art about quiet moments and little things. For the past several years he has illustrated the increasingly popular all-ages comic book series Mr Toast Comics with writer/creator/brother-from-another-mother Dan Goodsell. Prior to that he teamed up with rock star pal Robert Schneider of "The Apples in Stereo" to create Robbert Bobbert and the Bubble Machine - a children's music project that spawned a cd, comic book, coloring book, and animated video on "Yo Gabba Gabba!" He is the creator of the books The Goldfish and Bob, The Woodlands, and Tuesday Moon as well as the cartoon journal Casual Poet, and was a regular contributor to Nickelodeon Magazine in it's heyday. His book Chance Operations has been featured in the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art. He's made animated videos for Caspar Babypants - Chris Ballew's (frontman of The Presidents of the USA) kids music project - and Bento Box Entertainment (makers of Bob's Burgers). He illustrates the online comic strip The Adventures of Danny & Mike (a monthly recap of the exploits of Michael Maronna and Daniel Tamberelli - stars of cult 90's tv show "The Adventures of Pete & Pete") for theadventuresofdannyandmike.com and is knee-deep in the aptly titled long form comic strip Reading War & Peace. Webb also performs music as Seamonster and OAHU and exhibits his signature ink and crayon pop culture artwork regularly at the renown Gallery1988 in Los Angeles and New York - and if you bump into him in real life he will draw a picture of YOU in CRAYON for ONE DOLLAR. It's a well-known fact. In addition to his own work, Todd also edits Nine Things Magazine online and is working to develop a print edition of the publication, which features scores of super talented creative folks from all around the world. He is always drawing." |
