Everyone seems to want to talk to Peter Bagge lately. First, there’s the first part of a two-part interview with him over at that nice new blog, The Daily Cross Hatch:
You’ve been a big champion of the idea that, given the right circumstances, Buddy Bradley could make a successful cartoon star.
Yeah, and I just made a verbal deal again to try to turn Buddy into a cartoon. This time, in the form of The Bradleys, going back to when he was a teen, but it’ll probably just fall apart, like they all do [laughs]. There are just a lot of hurdles to jump. First someone options it, then you hope that you can get the deal going, then do the pilot, and hope that the pilot gets picked up, and each step is harder. I’ve never cleared all of the hurdles.
Then, he’ll be the feature subject for the debut issue of TwoMorrows’ new magazine, Comics Introspective (due in stores in July). And if all that weren’t enough, he’s the cover feature for the August issue of Comic Book Artist! Damn, guy gets around.

August issue of Comic Book Artist? Great news. I assumed the magazine had folded.
