I always looked forward to my subscription to Cartoonist PROfiles. It was always such a great read. Before I had internet access, Cartoonist PROfiles was my entry into what the syndicated world of comics was like, an the creative minds behind some of my favorite features and newer features that I would later discover online.
I hope Stay Tooned is even close to as good as Cartoonist PROfiles was, and I hope amateurs and pro’s alike get behind it.

I really enjoyed getting Cartoonist PROfiles when I was just starting. It always looked handmade (you could see the paste ups)which gave it a certain homey feel.

Ditto. Great publication.

I’ve been corresponding with John about his endeavor. We’re going to try to meet up at DragonCon this weekend. My first advice about publishing a comics magazine was for him to lie down until the feeling went away, but he’s serious! I wish him the best of luck.

Thank you all for your positive responses! Charles, I got your e-mail. Eric, I promise “Stay Tooned!” will be “close to as good” as “CP” because it’s one of my models. Admittedly, I have my own ideas about how it should look - wait’ll ya’ll see my first cover! I don’t know about it having “a homey feel” (Brian), but I have to say you definately won’t see paste-up lines. Tom, I would like to treat you to lunch!

John, let us know as soon as your website is up! I look forward to subscribing! I miss what CP offered…no pressure;)

I was just wondering about this myself. It is November, you know, and I was wondering when the first issue will be published. I’m really hoping that this won’t fall through…do you have any new information, John? Charles?
