THE HORROR!

Here are two recent illustrations I was commissioned to do for a throwback project of some old, 1960’s “exploitation” films. Intended to harken back to the style of that era’s “Men’s Magazines”, these let me play with some old visual tropes of monsters and “good girl art”.  Good, semi-clean fun!

KICKSTARTER FOR TREKKER: BATTLEFIELDS LAUNCHES RIGHT NOW!

Today, I’m taking to Kickstarter to fund the printing of the latest science fiction graphic novel  about my 23rd century bounty hunter Mercy St. Clair, TREKKER: BATTLEFIELDS. The campaign runs from May 28- June 27. You can find it live right now at trekkerkickstarter.com.

I’ve been thrilled at the reception my two earlier Kickstarters received and am excited to be returning to tell this latest all-new, self-contained action adventure story. All the passion I have for great storytelling and the craft of making comics finds its way into the pages of each Trekker story that I write and draw. And to see that reflected in the enthusiastic responses of fans is inexpressibly gratifying.

Two of those fans have created this amazing, short video to help me share the campaign!

How about that?!?

I have nothing to add except, I’ll see you on the battlefields!

Heroic Family Commission

A fun commission I fielded last year: a delightful family drawn as each member’s favorite hero. Even the dogs got into the act.

Close Shaves!

Had a blast creating these custom in-house strips featuring staff personnel from a prominent razor-maker transforming their lives… through the power of a cutting-edge shaver. Great chance to depict a variety of specific people in widely diverse settings.

New Storyboards

REI_FIT panel 12 copy REI_FIT InStore panel 18 copy REI_FIT Additional panel Fit Mobile copy Here are a few selected quick storyboards from a recent commercial project. The storyboard process, while similar in lots of ways to the breaking down of a comic book sequence, has its own rules and criteria. And in fact these change from one job to the next, given the specific nature of each particular project. It’s always a refreshing change of pace to shift from the comic page and its visual vernacular to the requirements of a storyboard project.
