RECENT COMMISSIONS


Here are a couple of recent commissioned pieces I did...The first is a portrait of Arthur C. Clark, by way of 2001: A Space Oddessy. More great literary portraits can be seen at Steven Gettis' site. The second is of course 70's Marvel character ROM SPACEKNIGHT, for an upcoming tribute benefit for bronze-age comic writer Bill Mantlo.

My #1 Fan



My book is so good it made my niece Lillianne drool, then pass out.

LAUNCH PARTY TONIGHT

for anyone in the Toronto area... there will be a launch party for GHOST STORIES tonight at the Victory Cafe on Markham Street. The event will run as a part of the Beguiling's monthly "industry night", and I will be previewing and reading from Essex County Volume 3: The Country Nurse! It's from 7-9, so still plenty of time to stop by and still make it out to your Halloween parties. Hope to see you there.

SPX 2007 ROUND UP


Just got back from SPX 2007, and I gotta say it was my favorite show of the year! I had a blast hanging out with Brett Warnock, Chris Staros (pictured above with myself), Matt "Superspy" Kindt, Jeffrey Brown and Andy Hartzel. We debuted GHOST STORIES , and it went over really well, we sold a tonne of copies and the reception was quite positive.

I did a bunch of sketches for people, including this David Bowie for Wizard writer Sean T. Collins, and this "Little Head" from Dick Tracey for Richard Marcej.

And, of course, I also scored a lot of great comics. Here are some of the gems:

Burning Building Comics by Jeff Zwirek

A great short story, Dads by Rob "Surrogates" Venditti


The Infinite League vs Misc. by Ashley Holt

And the amazing Old-Timey Hockey Tales by Rob Ullman, who coincidentally was seated right across from me.
