here’s the first page, of four, of a short story written by sarrah young for a great book coming out in april called DRAWING THE LINE 2. the book is an anthology put together by cancer survivor suley fattah in an effort to raise awareness and donations for cancer research. rather than post all four pages at once, i thought i’d stagger them till the book comes out. a sneaky way of keeping people aware of it’s impending arrival.

the date is offical! this week we make the transition from webcomic bent on world domination to comic book bent on world domination!

so run, drive, stroll, meander, fly, jump, hop, skip your way on down to your local comic book habitat and pick yourself up a copy of butternutsquash number one! this fabulous first issue is a fat 40pgs of fun with no ads! 30pgs of web-content reprinted in full colour glory with about a dozen new strips added in for fun! the remaining 10 pages contain a special reprint of bns noir from last summer’s tcaf show book, five great pinups by some hideously talented boys of comicbookdom as well as a letters page, a bit of history, rob’s rant, ask evan and a spelling error to boot!

enjoy!

here’s a piece i did for palladium books last year some time. to be honest i can’t remember when - the year was mostly a blur. i wanted to do a piece for their recollection of one of their most popular games, RIFTS, but was severely lacking in time on my end. i found a moment and doodled this baby up. though not my strongest piece ever i find it has a nice energy about it. i was just me playing and having a good time with the subject. the piece was also an experiment of sorts, as it predates my work on spellgame, in that i wanted to see how well i could handling doing most of the rendering in the inks stage. something i’d always hesitated in doing before. nothin’ like jumping in with both feet!
