A Goblin Damned





A little ghost story from history to help set the mood for Halloween. This is from the Spokane Falls Review, March 1, 1888. The gentleman named Everett Willis in this article is no relation to me as far as I know.

Halloween Drawings, 1960s






Being a black cat, Charlie is of course interested in these drawings I unearthed from my closet. They were drawn on large sheets of construction paper and date from the mid-1960s.

Steve Willis Archives v. 4


















1st edition, March 1991. Chico, California : Onward Comics. 50 copies. Blue cover, regular digest size.

This final volume of the set is an enlarged version of Stevetreads # 4.

Now, which one of us is going to badger Jeff Nicholson enough to convince him it is time for his return to the comix medium?

Stevetreads # 4
















1st edition, 1988. Chico, California : Jeff Nicholson. White cover, regular digest size.

Jeff's final issue of this series. But, as we shall see soon, Stevetreads was sort of a draft for a bigger project he published a little later.

The jam with Seattle author Edd Vick, I think, is the only artwork here that has not previously been posted on this blog. We drew it during one of his visits to McCleary and he later published it in his Fantoons. Edd is a thoughtful and gentle person, and a wonderful conversationalist as both guest and host.
