It was Aimee Mann. Her drawings are great. I hope she find a little time to tell some stories in comics, or Joe publishes the jams so we can read them. I'm sure she has something interesting to say. Her next CD should be a mini-comic.... I have to remind people that Joe Matt is used to the celebrity lady love: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=27753303 I was lucky enough to have a peek at Joe Matt’s latest jam book last week and i saw a drawing I really liked and asked “who’s that?!” It was Aimee Mann.

I get no respect!! Anyway, Aimee's great. Her cartooning is top-notch. She does these great 4-panel strips in her sketchbook, very slice-of-life stuff, that I've been encouraging her to collect in a book someday. Also, I've been pushing her to try to make more "finished, camera-ready art" and I've even inked a few of her sketchbook strips, all in the name of instruction. And we've recently showed these strips to D&Q publisher, Chris Oliveros, who said he preferred her own inking, and I agree with him. My inking, while slicker, does sort of kill her unique personality and style, so I'm really not vying for the position of her inker. I'm just doing my best to encourage her. And to those who don't know her and wonder what she's really like, I can only say she's lovely in every way. Kind, caring, generous, funny, vulnerable ... *sigh* ... and numerous are the occasions where I've thanked her for not sucking as a singer/songwriter. It would just kill me to like her so much and then be trading in her cd's behind her back!! Haha ... it's true! I'm not above that sort of thing!! But I do LOVE her music and her cd's are such beautiful objects on their own that I'm happy to keep them. Alright, am I done here? GIRLS -- I'm still SIIIIIIIIINGLE!! MySpace me!!

I recall seeing her at the San Diego Comic Con about 6 years ago. She was escorted into the Ballroom to see Midnight Masquerade with her son and husband, Michael Penn.
