Here’s the color version of the Mucha. Ever so purty. Dave, watch yr mailbox.

I will not be attending Motor CIty Comicon this year. I haven’t even made table the last two shows, and I’ve decided that a weekend spent not-selling books is not where my energy needs to be. I’ll be at home, cranking out pages on the long-overdue Vogelein book. The following weekend, however, I’ll be out at SNAP! It’s the new … Read More

Beware! Loads O’ Pix below. Will take a while to load. Best go get a sammitch and come back. Paul mugs with two of our favoritest comics-store owners in the world: Dan and Katie Merritt. After an exhausting Friday of sales, sock hunting and looking snappy, Matt Feazell falls asleep. Here’s a closeup. Paul says this is the first time … Read More

Here’s the press release for those three Manga sites that Paul and I built. Paul did all three designs, and I did the HTML coding and Movable Type wrangling. MT rules, by the way. The folks at Random House were a complete treat to work with. We’re sure hoping that quote about what’ll happen if these previews do well will … Read More

Thanks to the Best Husband Ever, we got all 100 minicomics folded last night. The minicomics were printed for me by the lovely and talented Wendi Strang-Frost of Strang-Frost Productions — thanks Wendi! You Rock! Tonight we staple, and I put in a hail-mary to try and get my Mucha drawing painted in time for SPX. I had a minor … Read More

Paul Sizer’s new book, Moped Army is here at last! You can read Paul’s press release, buy it from your local comic stores this Wednesday, or meet Paul in the flesh at one of his many signings over the next month! Yay!

Since Paul Sizer has posted about it on his blog, I guess it’s safe for me to do the same. We didn’t want to jinx it by telling the news too soon, but we both got a gig to design some new Manga websites for Del Rey Manga! It seems that Del Rey is buying manga properties and wants to … Read More

Rollande declares this key prototype to be “three-quarters-done.” It looks a lot closer than that, at least to me. At the moment, it’s about 50% larger than the key in the comics, but clever, crafty, cunning Rollande has further tricks up her sleeves: “The key measures about 2.25” from the bottom of the “button” to the top of the key. … Read More

My buddy Rollande has shown me the long-awaited prototype for the new Vögelein key necklace. It’s GORGEOUS. The shots I have are of the rough key, fresh out of the investment and with the sprues still attached. When Rollande finishes cleaning it up, I’ll post pictures. She’s planning on doing one other prototype now that she’s got the system down. … Read More

After about a week of brainstorming, hairpulling, researching, and avoiding, I finally have an image for the cover of Vögelein: Old Ghosts. Now I just have to do a couple color and shadow studies in Photoshop before I go ahead with the painting. Once I have a rough colored image, I’ll post it on the front page for everyone to … Read More
