April 16th C2E2 Update

C2E2, file it away, it's done! I enjoyed the show and the post show cocktails with friends. Good people, good times with good nerds. I have posted the standard rogues gallery of costumes and some more "Zombification" cards & new sketches. By the way while Ghost Rider might be a simple character to draw, he is always something awesome to look at. See you next time with some info on the Summit City show in Ft. Wayne Indiana!

April Updates

A little late posting my adventures at Horrorhound last month, sorrrry. Anyway I had a great time and I met a ton of people that wanted to be "Zombified" on a sketch card, (see the pics above for some of my victims). It was such a success I'm gonna' keep on doin' it for the other con's I'm going to this year. Look for me this weekend at C2E2 in Chicago and I'll mess up yer face for you.
Speaking of C2E2 I'm going to be at table G4B so come on by and say "hey".This year I'll have a TON of new art and comics for everybody including a NEW One Year in Indiana story!
I didn't think that it could happen but it did. Along with that I'll have a new Ok-Panic sketchbook and some other special appearance comics. Maybe I'll draw you as a Zombie. Do it now before people get tired of Zombies and Zombie shows...it's gonna' happen ya' know.
Look forward to seeing anybody..seriously, if you read this come by the show and say you did so I know that I'm not just yankin' crank over here.

March 21st updates HorrorHound Weekend .

In one day I leave for beautiful Columbus Ohio to attend my second HorrorHound convention. I have been busting ass to get enough new sketch cards ready for the show as well as some spiffy new signs. This weekend I'll be offering my Monster Sketch Cards for $5.00! I'll also be doing custom cards and "Zombifing" people for the same price. Also my One Year in Indiana collection will be there as stickers, buttons, cups and so on. I'm looking forward to this show and hope to see some freaky stuff (as I did back in November at the Cincinnati horror show). So if you are there stop on by and say hello and I'll take your picture for a zombie card!

February Updates

I am confirmed at the Horror Hound Columbus show ( well they cashed my check ) this March 23-25. I'll be doing the $5 sketch cards as well as "turn you into a zombie(or monster)" sketch cards! Check the link for more spooky info.
More shows to come but I'm working one month at a time so I don't get over-stimulated.
Hey whatdyaknow but STAR #1 is nominated for an award! All this time I was just bullshitting calling it a "award winning" and now here it is nominated for the S.P.A.C.E. Mini-comic/short story category! I can hardly wait to pick out my tux for my walk down the red carpet at the lovely Ramada Plaza Hotel in Columbus Ohio. Or maybe I'll just wear an old t-shirt and soiled pants like everybody else. For more info check out the links.
Big ups to my man Brian John Mitchell over at Silber Media the man who wrote the nominated book (see how I did that?! I can call it nominated!).
This month's sketches are some sneak peeks for the NEW Star book,(that will be available at the HorrorHound show AND S.P.A.C.E. 2012) and a random sci-fi pic that has some color experiments in it.

January 2012 Updates

2012 has begun and I've got a ton of crap planned. That's about as "zingy" as I can get at the moment. Five conventions planned this year, two confirmed at press time(there is no press but that sounds official). So far I've got HorrorHound Weekend in Columbus,Ohio (March 23-25th), and C2E2 (April 13-15th). No word on May or June yet but we shall see.
Lets just get to March without spurting a blood vessel in my temple all over my monitor.

My nerdy art friends are up to no good this new year, and I am helping the cause. Jon Lennon of cheeselordcomics.com has a new anthology, that I am a part of, that is being released in time for C2E2 in April. It's my first original story that is in no way related to Indiana. Another scumbag friend of mine from Ohio, Jason Young, (guttertrash podcast,Buyer Beware Comics)has an anthology of his own that I have also contributed to. Should be ready for the SPACE show at Columbus Ohio in April. And if that was not enough I am doing a sequel to the Award Winning Tiny Mini-comic "Star" for www.silbermedia.com.
Oh yea, have I promised a new One Year in Indiana story? Heh, jokes on you.
This months sketches are: a family portrait commission, a new horror sketch card ($5 at conventions), a new Conrad and a sketch of the Dean from Community drawn 30,000 feet in the air.

December-2011 The Year in Review!

I love year in review shows, countdowns, and best of the year crap that always comes at this time of year. Quick edits that show the outrageous shenanigans that I took part in these past twelve months. Well the truth is that I'm a lousy record keeper and I am also just too damn lazy to come up with something so organized and flashy.
So instead I'll just say thanks to everyone I met at this past years worth of conventions. A bigger thanks to those of you who picked up some of my art, weather in comic, or sketch form. I hope to see you again in the new year.
Next year I've got an ambitious list of conventions,(including a possible trip to the Heroes Con & a new indy con in downtown Chicago!) and no less than THREE stories for some of the nicest fellows in the world of underground/independent comics. Mr.John Lennon from CheezeLord comics, Mr. Brian John Mitchel from the Silber Media empire (a sequel to the award winning "Star" mini book") and Mr. Jason Young from Buyer Beware Comics. All due out early in the 2012. Not to mention a long awaited new One Year in Indiana story!
I'll leave you with some end of the year sketches and sneak panel previews for two of the stories I'm doing in 2012.
Happy New Year ya' screwballs!
