WAKING LIFE comes to Kickstarter TOMORROW. A modern-day sequel to Little Nemo in Slumberland, this graphic novel set is on the way from @comickerdigital to fire up your imagination. Mark those calendars; I’m looking forward to sharing this with you all!

One reason to check out my WAKING LIFE graphic novels? Big impact pages like these— I tried to make them count. (I thought this one especially did a good job evoking the classic Winsor McCay feel from Little Nemo— just with more monsters!)

Volumes one and two are coming to Kickstarter next week from @comickerdigital. Excited to share this all-ages adventure tale with you in a fresh way!

Win: drew the time-traveling X-Man known as Cable on my legal pad!

Loss: didn’t give him enough pouches; my bad y’all

A lil markerboard Spider-Man to entertain the students🕸️🕷️

Managed to get in a few sketch warm-ups over the past few days. Going with the recognizable (1), as well as an original (2)!

Folks. Fate has conspired in such a way that I have stories in TWO different anthologies that are currently funding on @kickstarter.

CRITICAL MASS Vol. 1 features my short thriller about a man whose past catches up with him in an unexpected way– just when he thinks he’s free from its consequences. It’s Rear Window meets Promising Young Woman, and it’s a big swing for me.

Meanwhile, CTHULHU INVADES NEVERLAND re-teams me with writer Stonie Williams for an Eldritch Mermaid story– one that’s become a cautionary tale for the Jolly Roger’s crew!

Both stories are suspenseful, thrilling, and maybe even a little funny— and they are both part of wonderful anthologies with even more stories to love. I encourage you to check them out on Kickstarter – links below – and get ready to enjoy some new reads!

Coloring up some spooky pages this week 🕷️ 😱

We’ve got Turtles on the brain in my house, so here’s a Donnie sketch. (I couldn’t bring myself to do glasses or goggles; I’m too stuck in the old school!)

Here’s hoping that Mutant Mayhem is as awesome as the trailers suggest!

Trying a new approach– pencils-only– to a story idea. Let’s see if this one plays…

Not me out here, sketchin’—

—yes, yes it’s Rusty Brown fan art

(I know this is what Chris Ware would want for his readers 👍)

If you venture into the woods

the spiders 🕷️

Anyone up for a coloring critique? 🤞

I’m getting ready to wrap this Norse horror story, and I’m trying to decide if an electric palette works for or against the vibe. Comments welcome!

I’m not horsing around with my art right now, y’all

(Did you like that joke? If not, say neigh 🐴)

Drawing the inside of a stable takes a minute, y’all 🐴

If one *must* draw during a sermon, then one might at least incorporate the message into one’s doodle.

So anyway here’s St. Paul holding forth at the Areopagus
