You know, if all the ice cream socials, along with the Christmas with Batman vignettes (as well as the assorted other things), were all collected in a book ... I'd pay money to own them.
You wouldn't happen to be an editor for DC Comics would you?
I wouldn't mind taking my scribbled-on index cards to a copy machine and making little mini-comics outta 'em, but since I don't own the characters, I think publishing things featuring 'em and selling 'em would probably cross the line.
Good news though! I recently did a four-page-ish back-up story for someone else's self-published endeavor that will hopefully appeal to those of you who dig these things (i.e. it's done on index cards with pencil, pen and colored pencil, the lettering's near illigible, it's a bunch of backgroundless medium shots of characters from the waist up, etc.)
Hopefully I'll be able to let you all know more about it soon-ish.

Couldn't he at least have some ice cream while he decides?
But how could he eat it through that mask?
Your guess is as good as mine.

Unfortunately, I am not an editor for DC Comics. Maybe someday...
