Shotgun Contributors Spotlight: J. Caleb Mozzocco

Look! It’s our boy Caleb!

Caleb!

As he himself says at his blog, the sublime “Every Day is Like Wednesday“: J. Caleb Mozzocco is a freelance writer based in Columbus, Ohio. You can read his writing on comics in Las Vegas Weekly every Thursday and the Best Shots column at Newsarama.com every Monday.

Our man in Columbus has certainly been busy lately. Take it, Caleb!

“This week on Every Day Is Like Wednesday…

Last weekend was Billy Ireland Weekend, a three-day look at somewhat forgotten early 20th century Columbus cartoonist Billy Ireland, occasioned by OSU Cartoon Research Library Lucy Shelton Caswell’s book and lecture. You can read it here, here and here.

Golden Age Wonder Woman and her mom used Amazonian technology to tell us who isn’t going to win this fall’s presidential election.

Rumors of the Martian Mannhunter’s impending demise occasioned a look at just how hard it is to kill J’onn J’onnz.

Wednesday night saw the weekly review of all the super-comics that followed Caleb home from the shop.

Thursday brought the weekly EDILW link-dump, including a review of Therefore Repent!

And, finally, to help kill time while watching the State of the Union speech, Caleb takes us on a poorly photographed personal tour of all the comics art and comics-like art hanging on his walls.”

I should also note that Caleb often runs hilarious cartoons featuring comic characters in uncomfortable situations, such as Batman giving Christmas gifts, or this gem, wherein Caleb accidentally introduces Black Lighting to J.E.B. Stuart.
