My newest artist, Elite Avni-Sharon, has written a fun post about how excited she is to be drawing Last Kiss. As Elite keeps pointing out to me, English isn’t her native language, but I think her post is charming!

I hope you like today’s comic character, Bucky—because I’ve got big plans for this kid.
Yes, he’s young and completely clueless about sex—unlike my usual, horny adult characters. But I think he’ll be an entertaining counterpoint to all that naked adult lust. So, I’m trying out Bucky as a semi-regular character—two to four times a month.
Longtime Last Kiss readers have seen him before. I ran a few Bucky gags back in late 2013-early 2014. And, he was so much fun, I kept thinking about bringing him back.
And why not? I know Bucky a lot better now.
He’s become the title character in an animated TV/comic book series (IT’S ALWAYS BUCKY) that writer Jack Enyart and I are shopping around.
So contact us, Hollywood. We’ve got mortgages and online-porn bills to pay!
