New Comic: The Trial of Sir Goodknight Mar. 22nd, 2009 at 9:07 PM
I've finally managed to make another comic. I'm really excited I did, because I think it turned out really well. Unfortunately, you won't be able to read it all here. I'm saving a good chunk of it for when it debuts at the MoCCA festival this June in NYC. The whole comic is 14 pages long, but here is a 5-page preview to whet your apetite that's also up in the comic section of the website:





"The Unwritten" Mar. 20th, 2009 at 3:12 AM
For the past, I don't know, 5 months I've been working for a cartoonist here in Minneapolis, Peter Gross, who has been a working professional for 20-odd years and has done many projects for Vertigo (an imprint of DC Comics). When I started, we were doing backup stories on some recent issues of Fables and that was pretty cool since I really have been a fan of that comic. Check out issues 80 and 82 (which just came out) for some of my work. Now, if you expect to see my name, don't. I'm essentially ghosting on these books and just doing backgrounds. I did get to draw a robot tiger in issue 82, though.

Anyway, enough boring details.


Since completing that, We've begun work on a brand new series that has generated quite a bit of buzz and its kind of fun to be a part of it. The book is called "The Unwritten" and it launches in May. You'll actually have to wait a bit longer to see my work though. I didn't work on the first issue, but starting in issue 2, you get to see some premium Evan Palmer backgounds. Evan Palmer bus stops, Evan Palmer 19th cebtury homes, Evan Palmer industrial wastelands. Exciting!

Here is one of the many write-ups we've been getting and it showcases the awesome cover art (that just happens to be gracing the flip-cover of previews this month as well)

And here is a preview of the first issue which I had nothing to do with.


The Calculator Feb. 22nd, 2009 at 8:41 PM
I was asked by Puny to contribute a character design to an animated music video they are doing for this song, We R Superheroes on The Apples in Stereo's new kids' album, Robbert Bobbert. Not only is this one of my favorite bands, but I really love the song and all the people working on the music video. Contributors include Tim Sievert, Jordan Crane, King Mini, Kevin Cannon and others I can't quite remember.



so this is the alter ego and his super-powered self who I'm calling The Calculator. I imagine he uses his super computing powers to calculate exactly the correct solution to solve any problem. Also, he is a serious nerd.
