So I'm busy working away on Fialkov and my ONI book, also I'm doing a bunch of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic stuff for IDW. The first covers posted online today, they're super limited interconnecting retailer incentive covers for Larry's Comics and Jetpack comics.

Here's a look at the covers and links to where you can buy them.

Baltimore Comic-Con this Weekend!

Hey Y'all!

Me and my buddies are headed out to Baltimore this friday night (on the redeye. Heaven help me.) Baltimore comic-con is this weekend:

The Baltimore Convention Center One West Pratt Street Baltimore, Maryland 21201 (SHARP STREET ENTRANCE) 

SHOW DATES: Saturday and Sunday September 8 & 9, 2012 

SHOW HOURS: Saturday 10-7 Sunday 10-5

I'll be at table# 1811 J all weekend. Sandwiched right between Josh Fialkov and Chris Ryder... Just like in my dreams.

Also of note- You can pick up the first annual Baltimore Comic Con yearbook. This year's celebrates 16 years of Frank Cho's Liberty Meadows.

Here's a look at my way-humble contribution.

 Attendees can bid on the original art from this book at an auction which is happening immediately following the Stan Lee panel on Saturday night!

Hope to see you all out there!

Upcoming Conventions! Baltimore, Austin, NYCC, Vegas, Long Beach, ComicKaze & More!!

Hey Y'all!

The fall convention season is about to kick off and I'm all over the place. Here's your complete guide of where to find me and buy stuff (please buy stuff, I just paid off my college loan in one giant painful fell swoop...)

Here's a look at a couple of the new prints I'll have at all these shows-

--If I don't screw up, I'll have a very special new set of prints just in time for NYCC-- check back here next month for info on that.

If you're interested in pre-ordering commissions for any of these shows, shoot me an email. Pre ordering's a great way to get me to spend a little extra time on a piece because I'm a silly perfectionist and if I've got the time at home, I'll spend it getting your piece right.

Ok, enough of that, here's my con Schedule...

September 8th & 9th, 2012 - Baltimore Comic*con

The Internet Attacks!!

Hey Y'all!

I'm not sure why, but suddenly the internet is all up in my google alerts with little (and not-so little) spotlights on some of my illustrations. Thanks to anyone who's spreading the good word. Glad you like my stuff. 

In the interest of keeping track of all these (and in the interest of my gigantic, out of control ego) here's a bunch of links where they say nice things about me.

New Prints!

Hey Y'all,

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. It's been the busiest few months of my whole career. Lots of work going on. Exciting stuff is happening.

If you've seen me at a convention in the past couple of years, you've seen my pulp novel cover prints (If you haven't seen me at a show-- here's deviantart.) I try to do a couple of these before every major show I do so I've always got something new to sell while I'm working away on my long, long Oni book.

Anyway, here's 2 new ones that're on their way to the printers tonight.

You can get either or both of these (as well as all my other prints and books and original art, commissions, etc.) at any of these awesome upcoming shows.
