TUMBLR and BIRTHDAY

I've started a tumblr to showcase various bits of odds and ends - things I'm working on, sketches, daily progress...whatever. Not sure how it will develop, but I thought I'd mention it for anyone that might be interested in that sort of thing. For now it will be mostly random images of whatever I'm working on for the day.

In other news, the second printing of Afrodisiac is almost gone. We've got a couple cases to get us through some shows this year, but if you want a copy, you might want to act soon! Ditto on Street Angel. Some copies were damaged in storage, and it looks like that second printing is just about gone as well. Thanks to everyone who has picked up the books. It means a lot more to me than I can convey in a blog post.

Finally, thank you to everyone who has taken time to wish me a Happy Birthday!

TRON EVOLUTION vinyl

I Am 8-Bit produced a limited edition, 12" vinyl record of Sascha's game soundtrack from Tron Evolution.

When they contacted me about working on the artwork, I was ecstatic! I LOVE the original Tron movie, and look forward to seeing the new one. Plus the idea of doing album art in general is pretty awesome. If you don't believe me, go check out Picturebox's book about superstar album artists, Hipgnosis. Amazing!

Miracleman 13

Read Miracleman 11-13. Glad I read 15 and 16 first. Knowing the payoff gives these issues a bit more weight. These early chapters lack the urgency, chaos, and power of the conclusion. However, they are very pretty and some of Moore's ideas are astounding.

Miracleman vs. Stardust

Read Miracleman 15 and 16 this morning. I was familiar with this story but hadn't sat down and read it before.

Romance Comics

Been super busy with different stuff, mostly illustration work. But I have a couple of comic strips debuting at the Brooklyn Comics and Graphic Novels Festival.

PIX: This Weekend (and some other junk)

If you're in Pittsburgh this weekend, check out the Pittsburgh Indy Comics Expo (PIX). It's Saturday and Sunday and FREE to attend. If you know someone in the area that might be interested, pass it on. Thanks.



I drew an illustration in this week's Pittsburgh City Paper. It was fun, a bit of a nod to editorial cartooning which is something I haven't done in the past. You can read the article online.
