You Credited Yourself as a WHAT?
My boyfriend, Dean Welsh, scored a gig colouring the upcoming graphic novel, Half Dead, who lost their colourist after Speakeasy folded. A press release was sent out a few days ago announcing it's new home at Dabel Brothers. Of course, I had to scour the release for Dean's name and found this:
DEAN WELSH
Job Title: Color nerd
Location: Vegreville, Alberta, Canada
Resume: Dishwasher, Stock Boy, Ditch Digger, other high-paying fast-paced comic industry type work.
Comments: This book's fun to color and Jimmy only hits me because he loves me.
Steph: "Honey, you credited yourself as a 'color nerd'?"
Dean: "YES! Why, did they actually use it?"
Steph: "Yes, I just got the press release for Half Dead."
Dean: "AWESOME!"
Steph "..."
Dean: "What else does it say?"
Steph: "...as well as supplemental artwork and covers for each individual chapter produced by established professionals and hot, young newcomers alike."
Dean: "That's right, I'm totally hot!!"
I have no idea what possessed me to try it, but I decided I should google "color nerd" and of course my beloved is on the top of the list. When I informed him of this, his immediate reaction was, "Awesome, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!!!!!!"
*sigh*

This is a great story.
And even though I've never met him and don't think I've ever seen his work yet... I still think Dean Welsh kicks ass.
