I posted these on Tumblr the other day — some very cool promo shots from the upcoming Pawn Shop by myself and Sean Von Gorman. More soon!
Oh, and there’s this one too:
Pawn Shop Promo Shots
Pawn Shop: Meet Jen
It’s been a while since I’ve updated on Pawn Shop, the graphic novel I Kickstarted with Sean Von Gorman last summer. We’re working hard with a projected release of Spring ’13. Expect to start seeing regular art updates from here on out. I’m really excited (and nervous) about this book. This one hurt to get out.
Anyway, here’s an early look at Sean’s sketches one of our four main protagonists, a teenager named Jen:
Hope you dig it. More to come!
A Peek at the Vic Boone Anthology
I haven’t really spoken about this yet, but since my pal and creator of the remarkably awesome Vic Boone, Shawn Aldridge, showed this off early on the ol’ Facebook, I guess it’s fair game. Shawn is putting together a sweet anthology with contributions from a bunch of indie creators, all of us giving our own spin to Vic Boone and his world. If you don’t know Vic Boone here’s the quick pitch — an ex-motorcycle daredevil turned private eye in a world that’s made up of Hollywood B-movie sci-fi. I’m working with artist Joe Badon and it’s been an absolute blast. I’ve been a fan of the Boone ever since his debut as a Zuda Comic, so it’s a real treat to be able to tell a story with him.
Anyway, here’s an early look at the first page of our tale, with some wonderfully bizarre creatures by Joe (a personal favorite is the rabbit ears comb-over guy) and a rather badass Vic. You’ll be hearing more about this from all involved very soon!
And if you’ve never read Vic Boone, snag it here. It’s awesome.
Dig Dug: The Beginning
So, for the classic video game DIG DUG’s 30th anniversary, Shifty Look — a webcomics division of Namco — put together a bunch of comics folks to create one-page stories that feature their interpretations of the Dig Dug world. I was paired with the awesome Hoang Nguyen (Carbon Grey) and Dig Dug: The Beginning is what we came up with. If we did our job, you’ll come out of it with everything you knew about the titular hero of the series shattered to pieces. Or not, but at least you can enjoy some of Hoang’s breathtaking work.

Some More Footprints For You
No, there’s no new Footprints stories on the way, but Jonathan did post this amazingly awesome new painting of that hard-boiled old bastard Bigfoot:
