The Art of M. Wartella. His work has been featured on magazine covers and other indie zines. Follow the adventures of Dinky Dog (QT recommended) created by "November Jones, the poor Hungarian surplus lard salesman who invented the "Dinky Dog" character in 1914." Or "Make a hacker out of a slacker".

What a find, Kevin! I'm enthralled with this site.

I had the good fortune to attend UVa at the same time as this guy and got to see his stuff all the time in our school paper's comics section. I think he was also in a band called the Vitamen, but links to their existence escape me.

Funny. I had this link sitting on my hard drive for a couple of years assuming it was old. I wish I could have found more about him because it is quite fun to look at his work.

LionIndex, I was going to say the same thing! I went to UVa at the same time and I remember his work for the school papers very well -- the Yellow Journal, etc.

Wahoowa...
