Bulletproof page 2

Here's the second page of a pitch I'm working on with Dino:

Hey good people - looking for some quality comics? Check out this link:
http://apecmx.com/ufo/
It's a new offering by the team of Hurtt and Richter - that UFO comic I've been blabbing about! It updates every Thursday and Sunday, so check back again then. Also, if you want to leave a comment, it'll let us know how we're doing (and might get us into the print edition, if you shower us with your love!!!) Alright, enough blather - go read, comment! Thanks a million!

A few quick notes

After a bout with some mysterious cold type virus (still on the throat lozenges as I type this)over the last week, I've finally succeeded in finishing the lettering on FISK! Undoubtedly, there will still be some minor edits, but otherwise, that sucker is in the can, so to speak.

Also, we have a release date for the UFO short that I did with CJ; "Whiffen's Trick" debuts on the 25th of February on APECMX.COM. Currently showing is "The Shot Heard 'round the Worlds", written by none other than my good friend Dino Caruso!!

Well, now that I'm feeling better and I've gotten some old things finally off the slate, I can focus on those other projects that are still in production, such as "Welcome, Welcome" the children's book I'm putting together with Mike Lawrence. I think that should be wrapped up this weekend. We'll see...

Back in the saddle

I started relettering FISK last night - got two pages in. It's very exciting to be finishing up this project, finally. Poor Dino's had to wait for, well, awhile anyway...

What's really exciting, though, is that as I knock off some of these older outstanding jobs, I'll finally be able to move forward to some new stuff, like that bulletproof pitch I've been back burning for so long....

hmmm.... seems as though I really like this progress thing, after all!

UFO anthology

For the last six months, I've been teasing with pages from the story that CJ Hurtt and I contributed to the Ape Comics online UFO anthology, and the good news is, I finally finished it up last night. I'm not sure when it'll be put into rotation, but as soon as I know, you'll know. In the meantime, why not check out the other stories that HAVE already dropped - they are available here:

UFO ANTHOLOGY

Enjoy the stories, and watch this space for updates! Oh, and let me know what you think of the stories so far!!

Here's the deal...

My brother, who did that excellent video that I showed you a few weeks back ("Your Heart") is doing it again, but this time he needs some special gear to make it happen. Please check out the link and show him a little love - every bit helps!

Not only are you helping to make some incredible art happen, but you also will receive some fabulous swag if you do. Ok, enough shilling, go, look, and spread joy!

What's new? Well, I'm still hard at work on the last few pages of that UFO story, I have to finish colouring a children's book, I'm really behind on lettering the "Fisk" proposal and pencilling the "Bulletproof" one and then I'm looking forward to getting back to "One Last Song" and starting my own original graphic novel, detailing the myths and legends from the region I live in... so not much.

Oh yeah, add the day job and the rest of everyday life and you get an idea of where I'm at.

No one said this was going to be easy, did they?
