Daily clips & strips — click for improved/additional viewing at the sources:
• A heck of a Seattle Weekly illustration by Jeremy Eaton
• Here's a color test for that series of School Spirits Stinckers that Steven Weissman 's been working on (and here's another one — I like the green one better)
• Dame Darcy has info on framed original art, a bunch of new handmade dolls (we saw them at Stumptown; they're gorge), new purses and more on her blog
• Some great-looking digital prints of illustrations by Newave! artist Wayno are now available from Rockpop Gallery
• It's this week's Belligerent Piano by Tim Lane
• ...and this week's "I, Anonymous " spot by Steven Weissman
• ...and this week's Maakies by Tony Millionaire
• ...and this week's new Forlorn Funnies t-shirt (featuring artwork from All and Sundry ) from Paul Hornschemeier (buy )
• Steve Brodner 's pointed portrait of Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer
Jim Woodring will be a special guest at the Oslo Comics Expo , May 28-29, 2010 (info in English ). Jim requests the pleasure of your company on his blog and reveals OH MY GOD IS THAT A T-SHIRT DESIGN I WANT IT.
Ahem. Jim's Weathercraft and Jason's Low Moon are nominated for 2010 Sproing Awards (Best Translated Comic and Best Norwegian Comic, respectively), which are awarded at the festival. Congratulations to both!
Starting today, Paul Hornschemeier is debuting a new t-shirt design every week in his Forlorn Funnies Shirt Shop . Announcing the project on his News and Head Lice blog , Paul says "The shirts will range from pure illustrations to pure text, some will have a relationship to my books, but most will simply be ridiculous, to one degree or another." We'll feature future designs in our "Things to see " posts.
My original title for this post was "R. Crumb FUCKs Wallets." Maybe I should've stuck with that.
It's probably a sign that I'm too cynical that my reaction to this was mild surprise that it's an authorized design (licensed by Supreme for Porter, or something like that) rather than a ripoff, which would have been pretty easy to do.
See more images & products at SLAMXHYPE (via Alan David Doane ). No word on where to buy these. Japan maybe?

I might have to start posting these art-blog roundups on the weekends too... these Monday updates are outa control...
• Airbrushed Zippy the Pinhead art (artist unknown)! Posting this on Facebook, Bill Griffith says "This is the 2-page spread ad for the 'Zippy Movie' from Variety magazine, 3/29/90. The ad was taken out by the Aspen Film Society (at that time they were the producers of the movie) in hopes of attracting a studio/distributor. Are we in turnaround yet?" More about it (and the likewise never-to-be Zippy TV show series) here
• Check out all the artwork from the Covered art show here on the Secret Headquarters Flickr page — I'm pretty sure I haven't featured this Johnny Ryan piece on Flog before — and organizer/curator Robert Goodin has a report and photos from the opening on his blog

• John Hankiewicz does Ditko , plus another sketchbook page
• A 1994 minicomic by Frank Santoro & Jon Good

• Detail of a mid-1990s Jim Flora illustration
• The conclusion of Gabrielle Bell 's New York story
• Mark Kalesniko is really channeling Egon Schiele in this one
• Yowie! Sergio Ponchione presents a full-color Grotesque story from the pages of the new issue of Linus
• This one from Renee French is even creepier as the follow-up to this one
• Ectopiary page 14 and a Cochlea and Eustachia one-pager from Hans Rickheit
• More from "Tales of Abstraction House" by Derek Van Gieson

A quick Online Commentary & Diversions update to close out the week:
• List: Popmatters names Portable Grindhouse: The Lost Art of the VHS Box one of The Best of Books 2009: Non-Fiction : "This awesome picture book... [is] filled with a delightfully odd array of vintage video covers... VHS cassettes may be treated like toxic waste in the age of the Blu-ray, but Portable Grindhouse offers that micro minority who still remain faithful to their trusty VCR a long overdue reprieve." – Ronald Hart
• Review: "Half the fun of [The Troublemakers ] is trying to figure out just who is getting conned the worst? I zipped through this fun read, filled with backstabbing, double-crosses, and the spectacular art of Gilbert Hernandez. There is enough sex, violence, and treachery for any fan of pulp fiction. ... This offshoot of the Love and Rockets series is too much fun to miss." – Joseph Jay Franco, Bookrastination
• Plug: The Geeks of Doom flip through January's issue of Previews : "The next item I’ll definitely be picking up is It Was the War in the Trenches [by Jacques Tardi ] from Fantagraphics. You know how I said before that I’m a fan of military history; well this book will scratch that same itch. This book takes a look at World War I from the eyes of the soldiers in the trenches. I’m very excited to read this one."
• Profile: Meathaus spotlights the work of Ray Fenwick
• Things to see: This is cute, though I'm not sure whether Sparky would approve (via Boing Boing )
You too can be a goofy dude or dudette in one of two new Uncle Gabby Maakies t-shirts from Waterloo. Don't drink 'n' drive, kids.
