PHOENIX CACTUS-CON (jan. 23-25)


If you're a fan of Todd McFarlane, Darth Vader, or me, come to the Phoenix Cactus-Con this weekend. We'll all be guests at the show.  A bunch of other awesome comics and media guests will be there as well. The artwork for this post is by my buddy Sean "Cheeks" Galloway, he's also a guest.  Look for him, he'll be the best artist in the room!

LONGNECK BATMAN

Here's a drawing I did recently with markers and whiteout on cardboard. 
Dave johnson works the hell out of this technique at conventions and I thought it might be fun to try it. I was correct, a great time was had by me. I'll be doing more of these when I get a spare minute! 
For anyone who's interested, this is one of five pieces i have up on ebay this week.
To see the auction go HERE.

DEADPOOL


This is what a ride to, and from, the airport in Dallas will get you. 
Many thanks to my buddy Andy Korn! I hope you guys dig it!

THE CROSS BRONX


File this under comics that might have been. A couple of years ago Mike Oeming and Ivan Brandon made an excellent horror/crime comic called THE CROSS BRONX. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. It's a very cool story, and some of Oemings best cartooning to date. 
A few years before the book came out, Mike had approached me about drawing it. I was interested, but for various reasons I didn't draw the book, and I'm glad I didn't. It was clear to me from the start that Mike Oeming had a much greater emotional attachment to the story than I did. I probably would have done a passable job, but I'm sure I couldn't have brought the kind of visceral intensity to the book that Mike did when he finally drew it himself. Above is the one piece of art I generated for the project. I liked it at the time I did it. Now all I see are the flaws in my work. My marginal work aside, check out  THE CROSS BRONX.  It's great!

SUPERNATURAL


Here's a piece i did as a tryout for 
Wildstorms comic of the TV show Supernatural. 
I guess the shows producers didn't like my work,
but i thought it turned out okay.
Someday Hollywood will love me,
but by that time i'll be dating some other 
entertainment capitol!
