Everything is Coming Up Sasquatch (4 Confirmed Sightings in as Many Days)
by Brian Balderston
Sasquatch Sighting #01
21 April 2011
Picked up Showpaper Issue #103 at The Levee on the corner of Berry and North 3rd in Brooklyn at approximately 5:23 PM. Cover art by Megan Whitmarsh depicts several Sasquatch-like creatures milling about what looks like artist studios or an arts and crafts show.
Sasquatch Sighting #02
22 April 2011
Upon leaving the apartment of a friend at Hope St and Berry in Brooklyn I come across a box of discarded magazines. First magazine I pick up has cover art by Bigfoot One depicting an earnest looking Sasquatch holding a gnarled cane.
Sasquatch Sighting #03
23 April 2011
A Sasquatch makes multiple on stage appearances at 80 Greenwich St. in Manhattan during The Main Attraction, a play written by John Douglas Weidner.
Sasquatch Sighting #04
24 April 2011
Perused a month old copy of The New York Times Style Magazine at 127 Montrose Avenue in Brooklyn that included an article about Humboldt County, California. Apparently, there have been enough Sasquatch sightings in the area to warrant a local museum dedicated to this forest dwelling enigma.

ODB update.
Since my last post referenced Wu-Tang Clan, I thought I would follow up with a related note.
Around 2006 a mural went up in my old neighborhood of Bed Stuy depicting the cover of ODB’s debut solo album “Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version”. It was a crude homage at best. However, it did feature prominently in a scene from my 2007 video project titled “My Life As a Dog (Laika Vision Quest)”.
I had noticed some graffiti sprawled across ODB’s face a year or so ago, and I gather that a local artist decided to restore his shrine. Don’t know who to credit with the work, but it’s certainly an improvement.
Proteck Ya Neck…

Super Friens (sp)
1979
Was organizing my life recently and came across a book of some of my earlier drawings. I’m not sure what I was trying to do here… Apparently I drew all of my favourite super heroes and villains and then wanted to make up names for the actors that would play each character. Seems like an unfinished project to me… For the record, these images were copyrighted.
