Someone in Canada has a batch of 10 Fight-Man original art pages up on eBay, with shipping to the US they run around $200 or so at a glance, which is less than I'd be charging for them (if I had any Fight-Man pages left, that is). if nothing else, you can see what I sold them for, they're all mar...
My comp copies arrived early and I took a break from working on the new EC script to read the new issue. Solid comic, I hope folks who pick it up enjoy "Necronomicomicon" as well as the other two stories.
I'm hoping to wrap up my third EC story tonight. It's been a tough one to write, ther...
The next issue of CATACOMB OF TORMENT will be on comic shop shelves this Wednesday, Nov 19th, on New Comic Book Day. If you pick #5 up you'll be able to read "Necronomicomicon", a new 8-page horror story by me and artist Lukas Ketner. Published by Oni Press in cahoots with the EC Comics Estate, a...
Solicitation info and a cover image for Back Issue #166 are floating around, the issue will feature a piece on Milk & Cheese. I did a short interview about my guys for the article. There's alos an article on Maggie and Hopey from Love and Rockets. Good company, for sure.
Last Monday I got together with some cartoonist-types for dinner to celebrate Robbie Busch's birthday. Robbie brought out a few Instant Piano prints from back in the day that he found and gave me one and gave another to Stephen DeStefano. I didn't get it home in great shape from the subway ride, ...
Every once in a blue moon I draw one of these, I enjoy doing them but never have time to work on a new one. I think i finished up the last one a year or so ago. I've messed up a few, I have a list of characters I'd like tod raw and still hope to. These are fun to do (usually).
Here's the second half of the Hacktober drawings done some years ago for Halloween. The Sadako drawing was done this month, the previous two were done some time after the main batch. I tried drawing a new card for Oct 31st an failed twice at it. My hand's been pretty unreliable lately (and unfort...
Cartoonist, character designer and storyboard artist Stephen DeStefano has started a Patreon for his work as well as a Youtube channel where he has been interviewing comics and animation professionals. Wednesday night Stephen had me and cartoonist, artist and owner of Buzzed Monkey Records in Bro...
Some of you older folks will remember Deadline magazine from the UK, which is where Jamie Hewlitt and Alan Martin's Tank Girl were born, along with Wired World by Phil Bond, Hugo Tate by Nick Abadziz and work by such folks as Shaky Kane, Glynn Dillon, Rachael Ball, D'Israeli, John McCrea, Si Spen...
The November 19th signing I was supposed to do at JHU Comics on Staten Island for Catacomb of Torment #5 has been canceled. Some miscommunication happened between staff and management or something, it didn't have anything to do with me and it's no big deal, I just don't want anyone showing up thi...
The Tear Them Apart Podcast rises from the dead for a livecast hangout on Youtube tomorrow night, Thursday Oct 30th. Join me, Paul Yellovich and our return guest Scott Dorward for a spirited (ha ha, get it?) discussion of what we've been watching for the Halloween horror season. I forget everythi...
The signing at Four Color Fantasies in Winchester, VA went wonderfully. I ended up signing and sketching for over 10 hours without a break, attendance was way higher than I expected and it was great meeting everyone. My thanks to everyone at Four Color and all those who showed up. Some folks even...
Art supplies packed, portfolio packed, clothing and toiletries (mostly) packed, meds packed, gas tank filled, windshield washed, business e-mails e-mailed. Tomorrow I'll head out to Winchester, Virginia, bunk down in a hotel for the night and get up on Saturday to head over to Four Color Fantasie...
I got a Covid booster Thursday night, I always get the whim-whams from vaccine shots and this time was no different. I spent most of Friday and Saturday in bed, slept a lot. When I wasn't sleeping I wished I was sleeping. I started feeling better Saturday night and had some soup and crackers and ...
I've been reposting the old Hacktober drawings I did a few years back for the Halloween season. Figures it wouldn't hurt to do the same here. I enjoyed doing these but never finished out the full month until afterward. If you go through the images you can see that what started as a fun, fast sket...
After yet another prolonged delay, we are finally back to update the World's Funnest retrospective. This time around, we're looking at the two-page DC Animated Universe sequence, aka, the DCAU sequence.
This turned out to be one of the more difficult sequences to work on. Not because it was...
I finally bit the bullet and sat down and went through all my art supplies to replace dead/dying AD markers and white ink pens, along with some needed drawing pencils. I tend to wait longer than I should to buy new suuplies, it's a pain in the ass and costs a chunk, but you can't work without the...
Tomorrow is the block party in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, featuring live music, deejays, dancing in the street, probably a few vendors and a bunch of cartoonists set up outside Buzzed Monkey Records. I'll be there with fellow Instant Pianist (and Welcome to Eltingville...
EDITED TO ADD: I didn't give the flyer from the event much attention and as folks on Bluesky have pointed out, it's AI slop, which I am against and am aghast that I posted it. Please forgive me for not being more on top of things. Event info below.
We'll be talking horror movies on All Hallows' Eve, October 30th at 8 pm, live on Youtube -- that is, me, Paul Yellovich, our returning guest Scott Dorward from The Good Friends of Jackson Elias horror/Call of Cthulhu RPG podcast (2025-09-26 01:43:51 +0000 UTC

Previously just a very sketchy pair of dairy products. Now curdled Milk and mouldy Cheese.
My friend Tommy Lynch gave me this along with the first M&C comic pages which I had given him all those years ago. Unfortunately he had a flood that ruined...
The last new drawing I'll be putting up for auction for a little while...I've exhausted all the AD markers I use. The only characters I can still color are Milk and Cheese. But I can't color a decent background setting. I did a marker purge this afternoon, and Winky played taps for these fine sol...
The Nerd Inferno cover took a long time to finish up because I was super anxious about it. You can see the process above as it went from a rough to a finished cover.
Started out with a rough sketch of the cover idea featuring characters from all three books in the omnibus. Five panels for M...
I'm very happy that I can finally talk about this new omnibus collection of all my creator-owned comics from Dark Horse. Nerd Inferno will be a 656-page paperback companion to the Beasts of Burden Omnibus, collecting The Eltingville Club, Milk & Cheese and Dork in one monster volume. Hence, t...
The customer who picked up the Deadpool book chose Vroom Socko for the bonus sketch. I couldn't do a sketch in the book itself (very slick paper and mostly black indicia pages and inside covers) so I offered a quick card sketch. I haven't drawn him (or Guff, his sidekick) in quite a while, and ki...
