Famine's Shadow

This winter I was contacted by horror writer Rachel Deering (Anathema) to do work on a graphic novel. That is still in the works, but in the meantime, I did a short story for a future anthology called Monstrology. Rachel wrote a great 12 page script for me, and being the fan of short stories that I am, I gladly tried my hand at it...


MOAR at my blog!

Harvey Pekar in Huntington

I'm not featuring any of my own artwork in this post, I just wanted to point to a post I did on my my blog about Harvey Pekar's latest (and possibly last ever) graphic novel that was recently released. It's special to me because it's about his time in the city I call home: Huntington, WV. In it he recounts his experience speaking at our book fair where I was lucky enough to meet him. His speech really inspired me because it was about comics as an important art form, and it was during a time in my life when I was lead to believe that my cartoony art style was never going to be taken seriously.

Of course now I've somehow managed to become a member of the amazing Autumn Society and be involved in art shows all over the world! So if any of any of you guys or gals have ever been told to stop doodling and get a real job, you may want to read some comics by Pekar, an average joe who believed in comics as a legitimate medium for stories of all types. You can check out my in depth post about the book here!

One Set of Horns

I was recently asked by Ape Entertainment to do the back up stories for their upcoming Kung Fu Panda 2 books. This is page 4 in that 8 page story.


See the coloring process for this page at my blog...

I'm finishing up the second and third back up story now. They will be showing up in the upcoming comics, to be released with the movie.

Strange Kid Meets Ernie

Here's my comic for the Strange Kids Club Anthology! It also features my original character Ernie from the Black Lagoon, who I've used in a couple of my own comics before.

Tomb of Dracula on Covered

I did this piece about four weeks ago for the Covered Blog based on an old cover for Tomb of Dracula. For anyone who hasn't been by this awesome blog, Covered featured reinvisionings of old comic book covers by various artists. It's a damn neat little blog, and should definitely be frequented by comic and art lovers alike.

See the originalcover and the ink for this piece at my blog! Trying to draw more traffic/comments there :)

Thor Vs The Death Dealer

This Weeks Thor Thursday was dedicated to Frank Frazetta.

Frank Frazetta's Death really hit me hard. His work is and will always be a great source of inspiration and a monumental influence on me and most illustrators. Thank you Frank for teaching us all how it should be done.

Reading With Pictures

I thought I'd share a link to the "Reading With Pictures" Kickstarter site. RwP promotes reading in the classroom through comics. I have a 2 page story (done for charity) in here alongside quite a few high rollers. I suggest preordering, since most of the sales will be done in that way. I don't intend to have a large number of personal copies, and this will help to promote their sales through Diamond. They only have a little over 50 days left in their fundraising with half of their goal to go, so if you can spare the dime to order one now, I know it would help them out a lot...

So, visit Reading with Pictures on Kickstarter
