Shopping, Prints, BFFs

I took a look in the Family store this past Saturday in L.A. I saw that they have a couple of the litho prints (titled Stamina) that John Hankiewicz made to commemorate our SPX '06 experience. John, Onsmith, Ivan Brunetti and I each did a little drawing and John did the prints, it came out nice!

Up above is the drawing that I contributed, scanned from my sketchbook. The four of us also made a mini-comic for the show that we were handing out free. I'm not sure where you might be able to find one of them now; I don't know if I even have one. But they were neat! Four new drawings apiece, very small size.

Anyway, the print was priced at $20 at Family. They also had more of John's prints for sale, and dozens of other things. Check it out and tell them I sent you. And then tell me that I sent you.

And don't forget to bookmark Hankiewicz's and Onsmith's blogs for a heaping helping of their naive artwork. Hankiewicz is in the new Mome #10; Onsmith is in the new Hotwire Comics #2. If you need help finding Ivan Brunetti comics, you're stupid.

New Mini-Comics for SPX

I won't be there, but my new mini-comic will probably be at SPX in MD, USA. Find it at the Sparkplug Comics table, #F1. It's 24 pages of fun and is called Danny Dutch and the King of Aliens part 1. Sparkplug also had the whole line of David King's Reliable Comics back at Comicon, but may have sold out or discarded them by now.

Porcelain Skinned Dandy

This is the cover to a mini-comic doodlebook I put together real fast for the San Diego Comicon in July. I think I still have a couple if anybody wants one, just one dollar.

NEWS

Sorry for the lack of new posts lately. I just started a new job, and haven't had much time. But I got a copy of the most recent issue of Make: to read on the bus, and it's kind of fun.

New Rough Comic Pages


Here's two pages from my continuing Vice-President, Shipping & Distribution, Office Machines Company story (the first part is for sale here). Forgive the occasionally illegible text, and click for a slightly larger version.

WHAT

Sorry I haven't posted anything lately; my whole world is an upside-down wreck! I'll get back on it soon, though.

In the meantime, you can buy my four new mini-comics (two of which got a pretty good response at SPX, the other two of which experienced merely so-so reception) on my recently dusted off web store. And also, in the even meaner time, enjoy this picture of me.


"caption contest."

NEW COMICS COVERS

Here are photoshop dummies of the covers of my two new mini comic books. I haven't actually printed them yet, so the actual product may look different, but if I have any luck they'll look the same.



Reliable Comics, 7.75 x 6.5, 32pp, $3   preview panels


Vice-President, Shipping and Distribution, Office Machines Company
OR (help me decide!)
Sad Old Man Picaresque Stickman Adventure Comic #1, 5 x 4.5, 16pp, $2



I just noticed the the guys on both covers are wearing the same clothes! I hope these comics don't put people to sleep...

I'll have these at SPX along with the also new Sorry! and Daredevil Pilot Jeff if it all goes according to plan. I also want to do a new Gocco print with art from Vice-President but getting that done remains to be seen...

Reliable Comics

I've been finishing a new mini-comic for debut at SPX in October, so I haven't been putting up as much stuff lately. If you're a regular visitor you might have noticed; if you're not a regular visitor it all looks the same.

Anyway, here's a few panels as a preview.
