Comic books, original art and all related junk. I buy lots of old comics and plenty of new ones. I can't get enough of Jack Kirby, Herb Trimpe, Gil Kane and Walter Simonson.
Music
Really--a lot of stuff. As a youngster I was really into Elton John and the Beatles. I still like those guys but you're as likely to hear me listening to Fountains of Wayne, Aimee Mann, the Beautiful South, Elvis Costello, Barenaked Ladies, Counting Crows, Army of Lovers, the Knack, the Monkees or any of hundreds of others from the big band era to now. Einstein's Sister is a big favorite. If you can find one of their CDs snap it up! These guys are awesome!
Movies
I like movies--I like Groundhog Day and Ghostbusters and Star Wars and Summer of '42 and others plenty--but I'm not a huge movie guy. I'd rather read a good comic book for the most part.
Television
I don't watch a lot of TV.
Books
The Oz series was a big favorite but I most often read non-fiction. Most often left-wing rants that support my world view.
About me: I write and draw comic books and that's pretty much the extent of it. I listen to music and write stories and draw and monkey around with crap all day long.
I have been loving this new Overlord, and can't wait to see who he really is! What about some of the supporting cast characters? Let's see some more Superpatriot! Oh yeah, loved the jab at the Spider-man rooftop scene from a few issues back!

Erik, it was really cool to meet you at the Comic Con. It took a while for me to have everyone sign Image United because some dumb ass in front of me had 20 copies but I got my copy signed. Thanks for being really cool.
You're a class act with an unparalleled work ethic and astonishing talent. It's no surprise that Savage Dragon is an ongoing success with you at the helm. If you're ever down Florida way we've got to put you in one of our movies!
Seriously, thank you for Savage Dragon. I've been reading it since I was a kid, I have the entire run up to date. I've almost fought people at my comic shop because they had something snarky to say about the book.
Just wanted to Thank you for all the work you did on the Amazing -Spiderman comics. Really excellent work man. They helped me get through my Group home. Thanks Erik.
