Creating a Graphic Novel : Art – Food – Photography

Someone went to Supanova (Sydney pop culture expo) and got me this amazing signed photo from Summer Glau (Terminator – Sarah Connor Chronicles).

A few days ago Cookie Monster was on the Google homepage, today it’s Elmo! For a little bit of trivia, Elmo appeared as Elmo on 18 November 1985.
“Elmo happy to appear on Google homepage!”

When did you start up comicartcommunity?
Summer of 2003 if I’m not mistaken. I *think* we’re 6 years old.
Did you start the site [...]
