Quick update

Ok, I know I said I'd have a massive update soon (and I still plan to) but for the time being I am slammed with "The Wicked", "Joe Fable" and a very exciting project which I am not at liberty to divulge information about as of yet. I am so busy in fact that for the first time in 8 years I am not attending San Diego Comic Con!! I have to admit though, in recent years it's become so crazy that this is actually a welcome break. There's always next year...

Anyway, I will update soon with new art from "The Wicked" and much more! Have a good weekend everyone!!

Parker!

Recently I stumbled upon a blog that's (almost but not quite) by one of my favorite artists Darwyn Cooke in which I found a contest to draw the main character, Parker, from Richard Stark's classic novels which Darwyn has adapted into a graphic novel. I couldn't quite pass up the opportunity to take a small break from "The Wicked", "Joe Fable" and other projects (that I must keep under wraps for now) and produce my own rendition of this anti-hero. We all know how I love them anti-heroes...

Anyway, here goes. Enjoy!


I'll be back soon with more news and updates than you can shake a stick at! Y'all come back now y'hear??

"The Wicked" Issue 2 is coming...

You've been warned...

MASSIVE update coming soon...

Guess I've already failed on my new year's resolution to be a better blogger. Jeez... Anyway, lots going on recently so expect news, artwork and more in the next few days!! Hope y'all are having a great summer so far!

Free Comic Book Day Signing

Hiya Folks! A lot has gone on with me in the past few months, both personally and professionally, which left me little time to update here. So for the 2 people that actually read this blog I apologize.

Anyway, I promise to return with a much more detailed rundown on just what has been going on but for now you need to know about September 23rd Studios' appearance at Metropolis Comics in LA this Saturday from 1-5 (or whenever they boot us). My cohort, Mark Peaslee, and I will be on hand selling copies of the book "The Wicked", doing sketches and signing autographs. If you or anyone you know in the greater LA area is interested there will be raffles, other creators and tons of FREE comics so come on by this Saturday and say hi! More information on Metropolis comics can be found @ http://www.metrohero.com/index.php.

Thanks and I hope to see some of you there!

3 more days...

...until Wondercon descends upon the Bay Area with it's annual barrage of comics and all things pop-culture! Come by and say whaddup to the September 23rd Studios crew (as well as our good friend, artist Megan FitzRoy) in the small press section at table # SP04. Here are some of the goodies we'll have:

Advanced copies of issue # 1 of "The Wicked" for just $3!

Snazzy promo postcards for "The Wicked" and September 23rd Studios for FREE!

Plus our limited edition print (created exclusively for Wondercon 2009), sketches, autographs and a whole lot more! Hope to see you at Moscone Center South Friday February 27th - Sunday March 1st!

Joe update

Well if any of you out there in internet land have actually followed this blog for the past 6 months or so you will be well aware of the fact that I not only am the artist for September 23rd Studios' "The Wicked" but also for Paul DeBerry's "Fractured Adventures of Joe".

With Mark and I taking a small break in the production of "The Wicked" to focus on preparing for Wondercon, I have once again begun to devote the majority of my time at the drawing board to the art for "Joe". Along with Paul and co-plotter Nick Aires, we are aiming to have a submission ready for Zuda comics (DC's online division) very shortly. While I still am not at liberty to divulge the plot I would like to share the first 4 pages of art from our submission. Enjoy!

Be sure to check back in a few days as I'll be sharing designs for a bunch of the swag September 23rd Studios will have at the con! Hope your week's going well and if it's not, don't sweat it, it's almost over!
