A while back (I was thinking it was 2 or 3 years ago, but it turns out to be nine, egad) I mentioned that I owned this page of original art from the 198os TV parody comic book To Be Announced!, featuring writer Derek McCulloch and artist Mike Bannon poking their little bit of fun at the Peanuts TV specials.Well, as it happens, with my publisher hat on, I just released a trade paperback collection of Derek and Mike’s work on that fine title. In it, you’ll find this page and about 150 more of fine cartooning, for a mere ten bucks. I’m trying a little extra hard to draw attention to this book, because Derek and I are trying to find Mike Bannon. He was both a collaborator and a friend to both of us, but at some point in the 1990s he fell out of contact, and  none of his comics pals have heard from him since. We’d love to be in contact with him, or at least know what’s happened. Anyway, To Be Announced! is available for immediate ordering from Amazon outlets around the globe!
