Here’s some news about a new Sabrina the Teen-Age Witch story I’ve written for Archie Comics. What it doesn’t mention is that this is the first of two interconnected stories, both written by me, that will be out just in time for the Halloween season!

My Tailipoe series grew out of the Appalachian folktale of the same name, which I read in a book. As mentioned in Part 2.
Here’s an interpretation of the traditional story by digital animator Matt Rogers that I quite like:

Folk tales are originally told around campfires and next to bedsides. They are made up on the fly and embellished in the retelling.

In 1978 I was living in Dover, New Jersey attending The Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in my quest to become a comic book creator.

In the late ‘90’s, Disney Adventures Magazine presented a monthly array of articles of interest for kids. Each issue also contained a large comics section filled with stories based on then-current Disney shows and movies.
I contributed comic scripts inspired by the animated series, ‘Disney’s Doug’ (The TV show was a continuation of one of the original Nicktoons, Doug, by creator Jim Jinkins for the Nickelodeon cable channel).
All of the Disney Adventures comics have been out of print since their original publication, until now. Fantagraphics has compiled a selection of that work in a hardback anthology called Disney 1 Saturday Morning Adventures.
Editor David Gerstein was kind enough to send me a copy of the new book, and I turned on the camera for an unboxing vid.
Apologies for the sound, my lapel mike didn’t perform up to par.

Rob was extremely generous with his chat time. Even so, in retrospect, a few omissions, corrections, and loose ends, etc. occur to me that beg to be addressed. Continue reading Craig Boldman on Santa Rob Podcast!
I’ve been showing off some of my work-in-progress, for new Tailipoe material, on social media. A Facebook friend asked, “Who or what is Tailipoe?” Good question, and I’d say a re-introduction is in order. Here’s the first of a multi-part primer. Continue reading Tailipoe 101 part 1!
