Massacre For Boys

 

An amazing bit of promo material, for the Massacre For Boys Action Special I did some colours for, by David Frankum. Can't wait to see a printed version.

Bye Bye Strange and Darke

Just picked up Judge Dredd Megazine 323 containing the final and most exciting episode of Strange & Darke: New Blood. It was a great run and I'll be sad not to be working on it anymore – unless of course there's another series. You can see my flats for this here.

Also on the shelves this week is 2000AD Prog 1780 featuring the sixth part of Brendan McCarthy and Al Ewing's The Zaucer of Zilk. You can check out my flats here.

I also picked up Blue Beetle #8 which I did a few flats for Pete Pantazis – flats here.

Timewaster of the Day: Color

Color is a timesink of a game that brings out your interior comic-book colourist. Great fun - and startlingly frustrating in places!

Working At DC

OMG! I would love to work here... the folks over at BuzzFeed got the enviable chance to wander around DC's New York HQ and take candid photos of their envy-inspiring offices.

Bibliography

I've just compiled all the titles I've done credited/uncredited colours or flatting for over here.

I actually impressed myself with the amount of work I've done over the last few years.

Forgotten Realms

I've just received a digital copy of Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms #1, which marks my first credit in a US comic. A big thanks to Len, who turns my flats into works of art!

It's Not Easy Being Green

I just finished a couple of pages of Blue Beetle #9 for Peter Pantazis – and here's a sneek peak of who turns up.

2KAD Thursday!

2000AD Prog 1779 is out today – featuring the continuing trials and tribulations of The Zaucer of Zilk. You can check out my flats here.

The Longhunters

Here's another page for for Earthbound Dossier #1 for Earthbound Comics. This is Longhunters by Ruth García Martín. I was chanelling Mignola through Watterson!

Fancy Pants!

There's a great Director's commentary for ZoZ from Al and Bren over at Forbidden Planet.

"Just over a year ago, Brendan sent me an email regarding a possible new series for 2000AD. We’d worked together before on a couple of Dredds, where he’d come up with the plots and I’d done the scripts, and while my stuff was a bit ‘wordy’ – I have a habit of erring on the side of dense, ‘old-school’ verbiage, which isn’t always the right way to go – he obviously liked the way I extrapolated on his ideas enough to bring me in. This time, he was after – I quote – “a new, wacky, totally surreal “Sooner or Later/Hewligan’s Haircut’ type of strip called THE ZAUCER OF ZILK… It will mix the surrealism of 60′s Dr Strange with a ‘Lord of The Rings’ imaginative scope. And with a bit of The Mighty Boosh in there too.”

Earthbound Dossier #1

 

Here's the Centurians - my first colours for Earthbound Dossier #1 for Earthbound Comics. I'll be doing a few more pin-ups for this edition.

Dungeons & Dragons Sale!

ComiXology is having a 50% off sale on all D&D titles, including the Legend of Drizzt mini series I worked on. Head over and fill yer boots! W00t!

Each Magician to his Own Technique!

Just picked up 2000AD Prog 1777 featuring the third part of Brendan McCarthy and Al Ewing's The Zaucer of Zilk. Wacky stuff! The difference between my flats and Len and Brendan's colours is startling! Amazing background textures. You can check out my flats here.

Batmanthulu

This beautifully moody Batman by Mike Dubisch just made it into my collection (a companion piece to my other Dubisch masterpiece).

I finally got to flat a top tier Superhero comic for DC Comics – yay! I did a couple of pages of Blue Beetle #8 for Peter Pantazis, with art by Márcio Takara. I'd love a few more DC pages... hint, hint!
