I had this wonderful conversation yesterday with my partner in crime, who is producing some goodies for people attending the HOW Conference. I won’t spoil it, but should you spot Donovan Beery and perhaps drop a secret password on him (or perhaps not), you may receive something of perceived value. What I can tell you is, when you see this package of fun, you will find a piece of it is dead sexy in white type reversed out of a black background. I take 100% full credit for this design direction, as the first panel of today’s comic was essentially the entire above-mentioned conversation. Black type on white will always fall to white type on black. Always. It’s like math.
