A little late, but...
Happy new year every body!
I hope 2023 brings you raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, I hope that this year is better on us and we get better for it. Lord only knows these previous few years have been challenging. What with infectious diseases spreading, and A.I. art challenging the artists’ livelihood everybody has felt the fear of imminent change. I guess it’s normal and we’ll adjust to it as humankind has adjusted to every challenge thrown our way up until now.
The last year has been beautifully bizarre and unsettling for me too on a personal level. All of you, that are with me for some time now know this. It has been a beautiful prosperous year as far as work is considered but my personal life has changed a bit too, for the better. (for one I now have more cats)
On to the reason you just read my “Happy new year!” rant.
The second issue of GARGOYLES is out. What an amazing accomplishment this is, working on this project. I love it! Now it’s your turn to have a taste of the new Gargoyle stories drawn by me and written by the amazing Gargoyles creator Greg Weisman!!!! (Honestly! The newsletter form is not compatible with the fact that I need to geek out so hard about working WITH him ON GARGOYLES.
And on the subject of geeking out, we are so close to one other project coming out, a project so close to my heart… we are 2 short months away from DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: SATURDAY MORNING ADVENTURES #1 coming out. Yes it is Dungeons and Dragons, yes it is based on the 1980’s cartoon and yes… it is drawn by me… you need to go get it when it comes out, March 29… I mean mark it in your calendars (or don’t, I ‘ll, for sure, tell you a couple more times by then)
I also did a variant cover for SUPERBOY: THE MAN OF TOMORROW #1 that will be in stores this April!
Finally, you can get 10 pages of mine in DC’s THE FLASH: ONE MINUTE WAR SPECIAL #1. it’s an anthology type deal so I get to be alongside some amazingly talented people! I get to design the costume of a Flash Family member(Jai)!!!! AND… and I get to draw one of my favorite new generation DC characters! It’s out now!
On the other hand, due to some health and scheduling problems, I had to leave THE NASTY after I finished the first 2 issues. Adam Cahoon stepped in and I know that the book is in great hands. I'm really excited to see what he'll do!
So… that’s it for this month. Such cool new projects, such a nice vibe to let the new year begin in.
Take care!
