Red Lantern Hulk

something cool... part 2

This was my idea for a print that Shawn Prior and I will be offering at the CGS Super Show '10.

We will have a limited number of prints available (all signed by the creative team... Shawn and me) and numbered and made available ONLY at the Super Show.

We will be doing a fun promotion and someone will walk away with the original art for the print, in all it's 17x14 goodness. More soon...

The Lizard... the process

I really, really, really did not like the first sketch I did for the Lizard and luckily... took a step back and gave it another shot...

much better in my humble opinion.

The Lizard

something cool...

I have really loved my run on the PKD Media comics and I am working on a special surprise for the CGS Super Show '10 for PKD and this is just a teaser...

More coming soon...

CONVENTION CALENDAR 2010

Hey everyone, just wanted to update anyone who cared on a few CONFIRMED appearances for 2010...

First up is the Mega Convention in Orlando FL, March 12-14. Once again, I will be sharing a table with the indisputable greatest guy I know.... Wayne Cordova (co-creator and writer of M.I.M.E.S.) last year, we had a ball and this year should be even Better! Hope to see a lot of people there. We will be at table GREEN-3.

Then at the end of March, the Comic Geek Speak Super Show 2010 in Reading, PA, March 27-28 . I will be sharing tables with Shawn Pryor and Chad Cicconi and other guys from PKD Media. In 2008, we had a blast and this year should be no different... only better. I've sponsored a table for my good friend Harold Jennett (co-creator and artist extraordinaire of M.I.M.E.S.) who will also be there. Check out some of the other great artists at the 100% Super Show Approved site (thanks to the incomparable Dave Dwonch (of SpaceTimeCondo fame... who also gives good man hugs (don't ask how I know this... it's just sad)). I am currently taking commission requests on the CGS forums for this show... if you are interested, check it out here. Come down (or UP, or across... whatever... and see us all at the show).

Last, but hopefully not the VERY last... Heroes Con in Charlotte, NC June 4-6. I will be sharing a booth with Shawn, Chad and PKD Media. We have not been updated on their site yet but I have confirmed that they took our money... he he. That's half of it. i will be taking requests for this show on the CGS forums sometime after the Super Show, probably the first of April. I will keep everyone posted here.

Anyway... I am looking into Pittsburgh, Philly and Baltimore but have nothing confirmed there... yet. Also, I will definitely be in NY for the New York Comic Con but I won't know if i can get a table yet... some time in April I will know for sure.

Thanks again and I hope to see as many people at these shows as I can

Moon Knight

Ok, I have a "thing" about this character...

I always draw him with "bloody or dirty" hands/fists.

I'm not sure exactly why but I think it has to do with the white/silver... pure look of his costume... so the fists are a contradiction to the rest of the costume...

I guess

Ghost Rider

Chameleon... the process

Just a glimpse at the process...

Chameleon

This one of 8 or 9 pieces that I am doing for a good friend named Bob, He recently completed his run of Amazing Spider-Man, all the way back to issue #1, and I am doing pieces of all the villains from the first 10 issues... and Chameleon is from issue #1.

I had a great idea to add an inverted image in the background of the cover of each issue. Bob's idea was to do it in gray instead of black (like I had planned) and I think it came out Great!

More to come...

Happy New Year... welcome 2010!

Well, we tried to ring in the New Year like we always do... by going to bed early... but the neighbors and the fireworks kept the dog up so here I am, up at midnight typing on my Blog.

Anyway, hoping for good fortune for everyone I know in the New Year. Hoping for more quality time with my wife and children. Hoping for patients with those things I can not change and Hoping for a year of accomplishments, new endeavors and new friends.

Peace to everyone

The Doom Patrol... the Process

this shows the process for the Doom Patrol pieces and you can see there was a lot of changing and re-arranging that had to be done to make everything "fit"

the Doom Patrol...

This is actually two sperate commissions for the CGS Super Show '10 featuring 2 incarnations of the Doom Patrol.

The first is the original group with Robotman, the Chief, Elasticgirl and Negative Man.

The second is the Grant Morrison incarnation with Robotman, the Chief, Crazy Jane and Rebis.
