Hi Matt!

    Cable is not published by DC - it´s from Marvel :-)

Hi Matt!

    After contacting Paul today, he mentioned that he is not doing the art for Cable # 24, as the Previews guide and DC Comics website has indicated. Instead, he has been hard at work on "Time Bomb" for Radical Publishing. Paul thinks that DC may have been intending for him to do that issue, but that by the time they contacted him about it, he was already underway with the Time Bomb project.     As Renaud says, "Support all things Gulacy!" Hey, that's catchy.

Greetings one and all and a happy belated New Year.

      Let me jump right in and get to the point because I can't stand small talk. First, those of you who have'nt seen Avatar, grab your coat and head out the door. Now.


      NEWS :

            - Look for another "Art Of" book coming out this year through Desperado/IDW. Anything that did'nt make it in the first book will be showcased in this new edition. Some things you've seen before plus many unpublished pieces. Also from these same folks is a re-issue of the classic horror story from Warren Publishing - Blood On Black Satin.

            - My wife and I were joined by by fellow comic creators J.G.Jones, Ernie Chan and Jesus' Redondo at the Malaga, Spain comicfest back in September '09. A wonderful time had by all. Plenty of food. drink and merriment.
            This being my fourth visit there as a guest, the hosts and fans are some of the best and never let you down. The downside if any was me getting clobbered by the European version of the H1N1 flu. I was horizontal in bed for two and a half days. Eventually I recovered and the show went on. You just have to fight it.


      OTHER NEWS :

            - Also in '09, the Portland Wonder Woman Day '09 was a sensation. I finally got to meet the Hernandez brothers whom work I have been a huge fan of for many years. Awesome time for a great cause. Props to hosts Andy Mangels and Stacy Korn. A highlight last year I need to mention.


      MY PROJECTS :

            - FROM MARVEL :
      In the new Wolverine/Wendigo comic soon to hit the stands this month, look for a surprise appearance from a guy who's an inker and a writer with the initials J.P.

            - FROM DYNAMIC FORCES :
      Writer Doug Moench and I are really happy to announce that SCI SPY will finally become a trade this year. A book that we feel demands a spot light. SCI SPY was actually being seriuosly looked at a few years back by James Cameron while he was developing Avatar. How do we know this? Our friend and comic enthusiast Tom Cohen happened to be Cameron's right hand script consultant at Lightstorm at the time. A division of Warner Brothers who were behind the Harry Potter films also expressed great interest last year. We need those eyes for God's sake. Hello? It's right here, folks.

            - FROM RADICAL :
      As I write this, I'm on the thirty-third page of TIME BOMB published by RADICAL with a long way to go. Already there is a buzz on this book and there should be. Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti came up with a great one. You can't beat special forces agents going back in time to fight Nazis. I'm pencilling and inking but I have my friend and wing man Charles Yoakum pitching in. Marvel heavy hitter Rain Berado will handle all colors. I want to be able to post up samples on this site but Radical has very strict policies in this regard but they are negotiable under some circumstances. I'll give it the old college try.

            - FROM D.C.COMICS: :
      After a two year hiatus with only one issue of Jonah Hex I made contact with head honcho Dan Didio over the holidays. A very amicable chat and handshake via the internet with mutual plans to do something exciting again this year. I am looking forward to that.


      That's it folks, by golly. The usual huge thanks to webmaster Matt and contributers Dave and Renaud who make this site snap, crackle and pop a little better.

      A heartfelt warm, happy, and prosperous new year to each and every one of you and thanks as always for your attention and support.

      Peace,

                                          Paul

It's a Vampirella Resin Model Kit (Vampi is 8½" high) which was sculpted by Raven Hood, based on Paul Gulacy’s cover art from Vampirella Magazine # 85 (from March 1980). I have no idea what year this was produced in, although it appears to have been fairly recent. See attached scan & you'll recognize Paul's influence. Does anyone have any more info on this?

            Dave

I couldn't find an image of the packaging to the Vampi statue. I actually found the scan of the statue on the internet. It may be that this item was produced in 1994 & that it retailed for $34.95, based on some references I found to it on the web. I'm attaching some additional scans & 1 scan has a date that it was built by a fan on in 1995.
