Darick Robertson: The man. The Myth. The Beaver In Space.

his official site | transmet's official site
Beave didn't pay the bills, but working at Pizza Hut until SB#5 and Citibank as bill collector did. Then he got real money working elsewhere, namely Marvel & DC comics. Really. What else? Lessee, he's married, so sorry ladies. And he moved to New York. Um, and he draws comic books.

Interviews (& more?) with D. W. Robertson...
These aren't in any chronological order, some more recent than others, you get the idea. Very insightful stuff. Read on, macduff...
* Mr. Robertson's Neighborhood from Kaos 2000.
* A Transmet interview in Escape Velocity.
* Living In The City of... in Pop Image.
* Space Beavers And Three-Headed Cats in Sequential Tart, a fine ezine.
* Robertson' an Eager Beaver from cninsider. A press release-y thing for the SB reprints.
* Review of Transmet in Spank The Monkey, this obviously isn't an interview. But what the hell, they included a link to my page. I'm happy.
* The Word Balloon has links to several interviews with Robertson, as well as many other artists.
* True Facts #8: Be The Bunny by Larry Young, publisher of the new Space Beaver volumes. An essay on Darick's wedding.
* Darick on PoImage.

Darick was kind enough to email me a list of the comics he's worked on, plus a few comments, Several years ago, I came across a book that listed who-did-what in comics under each artist's name, and it was rather comprehensive. So I added those in here too.

Child's Play 2 the movie adaptation #1-3, Innovation comics.
There's a Trade paperback of this floating around out there somewhere.
Maze Agency #17 Innovation Comics
Justice League Quaterly #4, First official mainstream work.
Look for the kid in the Space Beaver T-Shirt in one of the crowd scenes.
Justice League America Annual #7(?)I think it's #7. Look for my name on the cover.
Flash TV Special #1 (and only)
Knock off of the TV show, that actually came out after the show was cancelled. Smart Marketing! Look for the amusement park scene and you'll see I snuck Beave in as a big costumed character greeting kids.
Justice League Europe #'s26-35. One of these books has a kid with a Space Beaver toy in his hand as he runs around. I may have done the T-shirt thing here too. 26 accidentally has Bart Sears name on the cover, but I did it.
Wolverine #54, 57&58&59.
Man, I wish I could get on that book again!
