Every once in a while I go over to SVA in New York to talk to the Master’s program co-chaired by Steven Heller & Lita Talarico.

adventuretime: My good friend Grace Randolph, host and producer of the hit YouTube movie review channel ‘Beyond the Trailer,’ flattered me as her first guest on her new comics show, ‘Between the Pages’ on her Think About the Ink (a co-production with Bleeding Cool). The news peg? The release of Adventure Time #1 from Kaboom! Studios, by Ryan North and Shelli Paroline. PS: Make sure you mark your March want list for Grace’s comic creating debut (with artist Russell Dauterman), Supurbia #01, from Boom! Studios. “What goes down when the capes come off? Meet the ‘Real Housewives’ of Earth’s greatest super-team, the Meta Legion!” -Fred

We really like Tim Schafer and the Double Fine guys (Psychonauts and Brütal Legend), and here they’re going out on a limb for a videogame they know you’ll like —a classic point-and-click adventure— but, for some reason, the publishers won’t make.

Being in the animation business I am, of course, around a lot of world class artists, and they have a tendency to draw everyone in sight. Even me. But, in our line of work, it’s not often that a Pulitzer Prize winning political cartoonist like Steve Breen does it. Thanks Steve! PS: No, I don’t color my hair.

It’s the annual Kidscreen confab in New York, which means that people from across the globe in the kid media business show up in town, and those of us who try to avoid gatherings of any kind can no longer hide out. I’m happy to be part of a couple of panels with old friends. UK based producer Jesse Cleverly and a stellar group will ponder again whether the current interactive revolution is going to change storytelling in any way. And I’ll be subbing for YouTube Next Director Tim Shey in Amy Friedman’s The Creative Power of Your Audience. Come on by, it’ll be good to meet you in person.

It’s hard for anyone who’s lived to a certain age to believe it’s really come to “this,” whatever it is that’s reminding them of that age. It seems particularly whiningly difficult for baby boomers, especially those who love pop music, like I do. So, when an article in today’s New York Times celebrated the collective 50th anniversary of The Beach Boys, The Chieftains, El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico, and The Rolling Stones, at first I just skipped it. But the magnetic pull of my passions insisted it be read. Jubilees and Living Histories The New York Times By BEN RATLIFF Published: February 3, 2012 Your automatic response might be the fact-checking ones: “Fifty years? Is that correct? How many original members remain?” The second might be emotional: “They’re only in it for the money,” or “Good for them; they don’t want to stop.” The third — and this is where the response gets interesting — may be: “That’s quite a list. Wonder what they have in common?” (More here.)
