GO ME!!!
I was going to wait, but since Dave Sim (Creator/writer & artist of Cerebus and glamoupuss) has been talking about this at various comic boards, I guess I ought to say something.
Jeff Seiler's March 2008 issue of Cerebus Readers in Crisis #3 will feature an 8 page comic story by E. Ann Bardawill (wait... that's me!) called Crisis (On Infinite London Ontarios).
I also contributed a fake ad from Bovine's Haute Cowture and

My portrait is on the front. Dave did a really nice rendering of me and I actually was able to use my rusty graphic arts skills in assembling the digital art for the cover.
PLEASE NOTE: No, my nose isn't really that perky, but I'm not complaining and yes, I squeed like a 15 year old fangirl when I got it in the mail.
The cover art will be posted here after the issues debutes at SPACE on March 1, 2008.
I will also post Jeff Seiler's contact info for any and all who might be interested enough to shell out 5 bones so they can read my first serious foray into comics, which is - admittedly - mostly Cerebus-centric commentary, bad puns and boobie jokes.
So, it might actually be a collector's item one day.*

Well, I for one would have screamed like a 15 year old school girl if I saw my portrait by Dave on the cover of a comic book too. Congrats on the story inside too. I'll be picking up my cop at SPACE.
Next year is your turn...

The Secret Chronicles of The Aardvark Archivist Chick!
I blogged about it. Now all three of my readers will know about it also. Save a copy for me.
I mean that.
Woo! Woo! Nice pic! Despite the aliens occupying his brain, the man can still draw...
WOOT! Congrats!! Now I don't feel so bad you didn't win your dream date with L'il Vader.
Oooops! Forget I said that ;)
BTW, I'll need an autograph on my copy, my dear. Don't think I won't stalk you for it :)
Nice picture! You should put more of your own artwork on your blog layout.
I left you a little something on my bloggy blog blog...
Good to see Jeff S is keeping up with CRIC.
Congratulations on your (serious) comics debut.
Dream date with 'lil Vader was a long shot, I know.
A girl can dream.
Anywoo
Thanks for the congrats, guys!
It's a small step on my way to world domination, but journey of a 1000 mile yadda yadda - single step yadda yadda.

Hey, I couldn't find your email, but just wanted to let you know that my kid got a gig illustrating a comic book for Channel M Live in Dallas. Ever heard of them?
Nice!
(And here I am still chomping at his ear to get a forward to my book...) ;p
You go girl!
