Returning to Beyond Comics...

Come and meet Jerrod Allison, author and creator of Moon Wolf!

Saturday September 16th!

12 PM - 4 PM


Meet and greet with Jerrod Allison, author and creator of Moon Wolf!


Moon Wolf, a mysterious and powerful superhero, grapples with the duality of his existence as he battles crime in the city of Lunastrum. Gifted with lunar-based abilities, Moon Wolf finds himself torn between the exhilarating rush of power and the destructive allure of addiction.


Moon Wolf: Origin is the intro to a gripping tale of self-discovery, sacrifice, and the battle against addiction. As the moon casts its eerie glow upon the city, Moon Wolf fights not only for the safety of the city but also for his own redemption, determined to prove that even in the face of addiction, true heroes can rise above and shine their light upon the shadows.


Moon Wolf #2 is in production and will be out soon so now is the perfect time to jump in and enjoy the story!



Jerrod himself is a creator and an artist. In his words, "I am to art what Prince was to funk." He can draw almost anything he's given and loves to work on a variety of projects from personal works like tattoos and portraits, to teaching art classes and collaborations with international companies.

Clifford Berryman collection in the DC Public Library

Will it come to this?

In addition to the collections at Library of Congress (personal papers and cartoons) and National Archives, the DC Public Library apparently has 132 pieces.
Title
Clifford Berryman Cartoon Collection
Date Created
1899-01-01
Abstract

Invitation to dinner for Jay N. Darling

The Clifford Berryman Cartoon Collection contains 108 political cartoons by the Pulitzer Prize-winning D.C. editorial cartoonist that were donated to the library by the artist’s daughter. Most of the cartoons are original drawings created by Berryman for publication in the Washington Evening Star from approximately 1900 to 1948.

The cartoons address D.C. community issues, congressional appropriation and District finances, holidays and events, national politics, District political representation, weather and nature, and World Wars I and II. Many of these works include Berryman’s most famous creation, the “Berryman Bear,” a small, fuzzy bear cub often paired with President Theodore Roosevelt that was the inspiration for the toy teddy bear. The collection also contains a handful of miscellaneous Berryman drawings and printed cards and caricatures of prominent Washingtonians.

The entire D.C. Public Library Berryman cartoon collection has been digitized and is arranged in alphabetical order by title. Additional Berryman cartoons can be found in the collections of the National Archives and Records Administration and the Library of Congress, among other institutions.
