ME AND MY BEST FRIEND, PETER BAGGE!<\/p>\n

“If you like giant monsters, AND Doris Danger, then how could you possibly not LOVE Doris Danger Giant Monster Stories? Answer: You Couldn’t!”<\/em> – Peter Bagge<\/p>\n

Considering what best friends we are, I feel like I actually haven’t spent that much time with Peter! I commissioned his pin-up from him online, by email, in 2005, before meeting him! Our most lengthy visit was probably the Zoom interview<\/a> I did with him in 2020.<\/p>\n

\nBack in 2007, my then-one-year-old son and I met Peter briefly at Seattle’s Emerald City Comic-Con. This photo documented that historic first meeting, and we spoke briefly about both being musicians and that was about all the conversation we had.<\/p>\n

\nShortly after (same year), our paths crossed at Atlanta’s Dragon Con, where Peter was hustling past my table but paused briefly for a photo.\u00a0 We then wound up on an indie comics creators panel together:<\/p>\n

In 2010, we were both invited to design trading cards for Rochester Electronics’ electronics safety super hero, Captain Rochester. The company then hosted a thank-you dinner for its card contributors at Comic-Con in San Diego, and I wound up at a table with Peter and his wife, Joanne.\u00a0 I hadn’t planned to go down to Comic-Con that year, but changed my mind so that I could enjoy being a part of this monumental dinner with a bunch of my favorite artists in the industry. (Below, Joanne, then Batton Lash, who saw photos were being taken and squatted down in the photo with us! – and Peter and myself.) Fun and memorable night!<\/p>\n
