Last year my bud Mike Lilly appeared at That’s Entertainment, a legendary comic book specialty shop in Worcester, MA, to sign on the 6th annual Batman Day. I helped him ink the Batman/Catwoman wedding print (colored by David Ocampo) that was given away to the first 100 attendees. But Mike wasn’t able to get me invited to said event. […]
I have the Terrificon to attend in a week and FanExpo Boston Con the weekend after that. But months ago I was invited to return to the FanX Salt Lake Comic Con Fall 2019 for September 5-7 but I couldn’t officially make a statement until today! I, again, will be joining my oft-partner and pal Sal Velluto from Black Panther, […]
I’ve been slowly collecting photos that commission clients have sent me over time so I figured I have enough now to post an article. I’m always stunned when I see images of my work framed and hung up alongside so many other greats. I thought you visitors might get a kick out of this. FROM […]
I noticed in the August for October Previews catalog from Diamond that Marvel is soliciting 2 special projects with the King of Wakanda. The Vistions of Wakanda book will contain interview material from myself & Sal Velluto and possibly reproduce some artwork by us. The postcard book might also have some art reproduced by us […]
Friendly Neighborhood Comics run by my longtime friend Ernie Pelletier has generously arranged for me to schedule a signing event in his store. In recent years I’ve been found at his store on Free Comic Book Day in a duel commitment with him early in the day and a commute to New England Comics: New Bedford for later in the […]
Now that the Great Philadelphia Comic Con!, the new host show to the Inkwell Awards awards ceremony, is now past, I will be focusing on getting caught up on commissions and prepping for more shows. So my commission list is still closed (except for those willing to wait) until I finish up a bunch of Tick […]
*ITEM: Kingstone Comics contacted me to ink 17 pages over a Danny Bulanadi Moses story for the Kingstone Bible 2nd edition printing. So I will have those for sale for anyone interested as my convention schedule commences next month. *ITEM: Proud to have a True Believer reprint for the 3rd pro job I ever […]
Hi! I’ve clearly not had the time to post much for many weeks. After the September shows in Salt Lake City, UT and Utica, NY I’ve been home buried under numerous commissions and I’m awaiting the next Mike Lilly assignment. (Those commissions will eventually wind up posted at a newly created ComicArtFans gallery which will […]
Terrificon was our BEST show this year and better than the three previous shows at the Mohegan Sun! The new, larger expo center and increased everything, from creators to vendors to celebrities to customer traffic! We made out well on table merchandise, donations collecting, donation box fundraising (my pal Jim Starlin especially!), my personal success, […]
Just today I was confirmed for space at the Fan Expo Boston Comic Con on August 10-12. As some of you may know, I attended that show for years early on but eventually boycotted it. Fan Expo bought the show last year and while I enjoy mom & pop shows over corporate ones, I wanted to give […]
