Description
This is my Favorite piece from Sideshow, a strip published in the alternative weekly newspaper, the Syracuse New Times, back in the day. I had the pleasure of getting to know Tom, an Exceptional Writer and Illustrator. I knew he had a brilliant career ahead of him and he proved me right🤙🏻
Peyer started drawing political cartoons and illustrations for various student underground newspapers in his hometown of Syracuse, New York, while in high school. His professional career began as a newspaper cartoonist for The Syracuse New Times, an alternative weekly newspaper in Syracuse, New York. In this role, he came to the attention of Roger Stern, a Syracuse resident.
Peyer was an editor at DC Comics/Vertigo during the same time as Mark Waid, and the two have been frequent collaborators. Another long-time collaborator is writer Hart Seely, with whom Peyer created a collection of found poetry based on the calls of baseball icon Phil Rizzuto.
