The Scarlet Witch!

Thought i would share. I need to get back to posting here, my apologies.  I was trying to channel my hero Adam Hughes

on this one.  You'll have to be the judge on if I succeeded or not.

New Interagents Cover Art & Some Western Reviews

A couple reviews for the Western antholgy have posted recently on the inter-tubes.

News-A-Rama is a great comic and entertainment site. If you dont have them book marked you should.

Flick Cast is new on the scene and they are quickly becoming one of the big guys.

Only a few days left to get your June order in and help Western hit the order number neccassary to get it distributed here in the states. :-) Just tell your local comic shop the Diamond order code JUN090671. Also, Im offering to any 2o2p members the deal I offered to LB in the comments of my last blog. Any 2o2p member that orders a copy of Western from a local comic shop, if it hits its numbers and ships, you send me the book and I'll sign it, as well as do an original sketch in the front of the book where it has a blank page just for that purpose. And Ill throw in an original sketch card of any comic book character you desire. Hows that for additional incentive. I'll even split the shipping with you. You pay to mail it to me Ill pay to mail it back.

On to new work! Here is the cover to Interagents #6. Interagents is an online print on demand comic written by Dwight Macpherson who wrote the short story I did in Western, He is a very talented writer and an up and coming force I think. He currently is writing the "Grim" comic for IDW. I have posted up the progression on this cover piece from rough to finished color. Enjoy.

The initial rough concept sketches:

Comic Work in this months PREVIEWS!

British publisher AccentUK's Western anthology is in Diamond's comic book catalogue, PREVIEWS this month (June). Critically acclaimed writer Dwight MacPherson and I did a wonderfully gruesome story for Western. Our story is a tale of retribution in the old EC horror vein titled “The 7th Will Rise Again.” I also illustrated the books front and back cover. Until just recently It looked like Western would only see distribution over seas. So this is good news that its in Previews. The twist is that orders have too meet the new Diamond order requirements or they will not fill the orders and Western will not be distributed in the states. So if you like Westerns or want to own a book with some Bat comic art in it you can use the Comic Shop Locator to find a shop near you and ask them to order you a copy. At only $12.99 for 200 pages it's a great value! The Diamond order code is JUN090671. You can view a preview of our story below, im posting up a few pages and the cover. Enjoy the preview and If you order one and you want it signed and an original sketch done in the front of it just PM me and we'll coordinate the shipping back and fourth and i will gladly make your copy a one of a kind.

Its for a great cause and its a relatively inexpensive way to get an original piece of my Halo art. Come on LB you know you want that Buffy card dude!!! I wont even ask what obscene things you plan to do to it if you score it.
