Batman and Robin kick some ***

Here's my latest piece after the nice long break. I took a month off after having a blast being neck deep with actual comic work (all Gen 13 baby). I have to say Ben Abernathy is absolutely the best editor I have ever worked with (Phil Amara is a very close second - sorry Phil). This is a big thank you to Ben and I'll be sending it off shortly. I hope he digs it. I went through a lot of drafts to make a cool lookin Batman, and when I say a lot, I burned through I think about 8 boards. Batman is such an iconic character I really wanted to avoid the characteristic poses that everyone's done a million times. But then there have been so many talented artists that have put their mark on Batman, that trying to come up with something truly original was like trying to reinvent the wheel. So I thought of the coolest thing I could think of Batman doing and do my take on it. Hopefully, it came out great.

Now I have only 20 more commissions to go...
woo hoo...

Gen13 #16 - Jan 08

Hi there... Sorry about the long absence, but I was eyeball deep in helping out on deadline challenged Gen 13. As a reward(?) the let me draw the entire issue 16 - whether or not that's a good thing, I'll let you all decide after reading it. Another cool part of it was I got Jon Mills as an inker. I've worked and known him since our school days back in 1998. He's an incredibly talented artist in his own right and an even more talented inker. I have no doubt, he'll bring my stuff to a new level that even I didn't think was possible. It was a lot of fun - and I thank Ben Abernathy for that awesome opportunity. I'm going to take a week off for Thanksgiving and then back to commissions. So- weet!!

World's Finest DC and WS

Here are two of my latest pieces. They were also commission pieces. I thought it would be neat to have a side by side of two similar and very popular characters.

Gen 13 Commission

Just thought I'd post a recent commission for Gen 13... Grunge came out beefier that I was trying, but I'm still happy with the overall composition.

Gen 13 #4

Finished Gen 13 #4 and it's out now. Feel free to let me know what you think about it. Personally, the story was amazing. Gail Simone is a fantastically talented writer and her story for issue four was a sheer pleasure to draw. The editor Ben Abernathy was also really cool to work with - one of the best experiences I've had. I hope you all have as much fun reading it as I did drawing it.

Have a great day!
