I just realized I’d somehow neglected to post anything about this yet… The Stars is a new comic mini-series being put out through indy-publisher Earthbound Comics which I had the opportunity to work on as the letterer. It was written and penciled by Kurt Belcher, inked by Stuart Berryhill and colored by Lisa Sky – an all around awesome collection …
Yep, this actually happened. Yes, my wife and I are giant nerds. And yes, I’m very lucky she married me.
I’ll be at the Spokane ComiCon this Saturday (the 21st), in artist alley with my friends in the Comicsmiths’ Guild. We’ll have copies of the Guild Anthology book for sale, along with a whole mess of prints and original art available, as well as taking sketch commissions. Hope to see everyone there! Also, there will be a Drink and Draw …
The Spokane Comicsmiths’ Guild (our local artist/writer group) has recently put out our first anthology comic, which is now available for purchase! It’s a 40 page book, with 10 short stories in a varieties of genres from local creators. My contribution is a 4 page action-horror short featuring a character I have many more plans for – and this is …
Last week, over on Livejournal, Jason Horn posted a pretty awesome page he did as an experiment – Batman’s origin done in the same format as the one page origin in All Star Superman. Check it out: NewJason’s All-Star Batman The idea is to distill a character’s origin down to 4 panels, using only 2 words per panel. I thought …
This last weekend was the annual 24 Hour Comic Book Challenge, where creators around the world attempt to write and draw a 24 page comic, from scratch, in 24 straight hours. This was my 3rd year participating and the 4th year for the event here in Spokane. Last year I did pretty well, coming up with a 17 page finished …
I’ve been doing some lettering work for a couple of comic pitches, and also working on an original comic short for an anthology the Spokane Comicsmiths Guild is putting together. It’ll be a collection of several stories, most around 4 pages long, showcasing the skills and diverse styles of our little group. We’re hoping to have it printed up and …
I haven’t been keeping up with the ol’ blog recently, so here’s a few highlights to catch up for the week…. Monday – I spent the day hanging out with my buddies Levi and Jay, working on our super-secret comic book project. Much work was accomplished. Tuesday – Jenny and I had a great time at the company Christmas party …
Jenny has a mandatory library “Staff Day” on Friday (her usual day off), so she took today off from the law firm, which worked out well. We both had haircut appointments this morning, and then headed over to The Comic Book Shop to buy some comics. We actually didn’t get this week’s comics, as we got to the shop before …
Yesterday was Jenny’s father’s birthday, and we spent most of the day over in Coeur d’Alene with her parents. We went to see the Surrogates with him – which was a pretty awesome sci-fi flick (based on an equally cool indy comic). Glad we got to see it in the theatre, though I think it could’ve been a bit longer. …
