Comment on Comic Art Friday: Remembering Ernie Chan by Geof Isherwood

I’m glad you got to meet and talk with Ernie on many occasions. Sadly, I never did. I knew his work very well, of course, following him to work on Conan titles, ditto Tony DeZuniga. And thanks to you I was able to ink Al Rio a couple of times. All artists of whose next great piece of art we will miss seeing– until we reach the next world I suppose. Thanks for this Comic Art Friday entry.

Hi there. Not trying to hijack your thread or anything. I’m a comic art fan too, have been for many years, drew comics myself growing up, until adulthood, still use my art occasionally. Haven’t followed comics in years as I made a choice after they went over $1 not to and spent the years since in pursuit of other types of knowledge. I’m writing because I’d like to ask you a couple questions backchannel but could not find an email address here. I found your old blog and saw that you lived on Hamilton AFB in the early 70s. I did also. You also lived on Crete, I did also, from 77 – 79, you did not mention the years you were there. Always glad to see another brat out there doing their thing. My email is rahkyt@gmail.com . Thank you in advance. ~Mark

I am happy to have shared 33 of those 50 years with you Uncle Swan! Are you ready for me to be more up close and personal by residing on the same coast again?

Comment on SwanShadow Gives Thanks: Eight Is Never Enough by DamonO

Aw, shucks (kicks pebble on the ground) — please, its a privelege and a honor to have made a friend like the inimitable Uncle Swan. I remember a few years ago watching him in a Jeopardy! tournament and thinking to myself, “How the heck did I luck into making friends with an incredible guy like THAT?!” As Earth, Wind and Fire would say, you’re a shining star, and I am very thankful to have such a friend.
