Not awful for my first time ever drawing a medieval village, I don't think. Hopefully I'll get better with more practice, though.
I'm rather happy with that bottom spread o...

Apologies in advance for the fact that I'll be spamming this announcement, but I want to make sure as many folks see that I'll be there as possible. Thanks so much for understanding!

For the first time in eight years, I'll be returning to New York Comic Con, from Thursday, October 6th-Sunday, October 9th.
I'm sorry it's late notice, but I didn't find out until about a week ago and have been scrambling to get everything together in time. However, I am extremely excited to be returning, and hope to see some of you there! I'll have prints, buttons, photos, and original art, and will do my best to take commissions, too!
See you in a few weeks!

Boy (no pun intended), I'm not really sure where to start with this one.
I appreciate that most readers probably really enjoy Bruce's schpiel here, but in hindsight, I'm not the biggest fan. I think the spirit of it works, but if I were to write it now, I think it would "sound" significantly different. I can't quite put my finger on how to describe my issue with it, other than m...

There's a lot going on here.
For starters, I feel like this is probably the best looking installment of JL8 to this point. I'm starting to figure out how I want the characters and world to look, and I'm getting a little more courageous with the layouts. There's nothing TOO fancy going on here, but the little in-set triumvirate of panels 2-4 and the phone cord gutter splitting p...

Good afternoon, everyone.
I'm incredibly sorry it's been so long since we've spoken. Life got a little out of hand over the last few months, and I let my work ethic slide a bit, and when that happens, posting updates online always tends to be the first thing to take a back seat. For that, I apologize.
Moving forward, I'm going to make an effort to start scheduling posts, rather than producing them the day-of. I think that'll help me stay more on track, and provide you all with a m...

This one was a lot of fun, mostly because I've always loved Shocker's design. Not entirely sure why so many folks always seem to dog on it. Must be the quilting element or something. Anyway, one more HeroesCon commission for you all to take a look at. I hope you enjoy, and have a great weekend!

The commission request was for an image of Clark robbing Bruce of a home run, but I got a little carried away.

Hey there, everyone!
Sorry I've been quiet for a few weeks. Prepping for--and recovering from--my first convention in three years really took it out of me.
For those of you who made it out, it was great seeing you either again or for the first time! For those who didn't, I hope our paths will cross one day when the world has become a bit more normal again. Hopefully that'll be true at some point.
In the meantime, I'll be getting back to posting--I have some commissions I've ...

I'll be at HeroesCon this coming weekend in Charlotte, NC, June 24-26.
You can find me in Artist's Alley at Table AA-123, nice and easy. I made a handy little map, as seen above, to make it even simpler.
Hope to see some of you there.

It is with deep, deep sadness that I share the news that the great Tim Sale has passed away today.
I will make a post about him in the future, but right now I'm largely speechless.
I'm just so very lucky I was able to call him my friend.
Please enjoy the above artwork from Catwoman: When In Rome. It's one of my all-time favorites of his.

An argument can be made that this strip demonstrates the primary thesis of JL8: that Bruce Wayne's origin is indeed tragic, and to be treated with respect.
Admittedly, I think that at best that Thesis B to a Thesis A that I don't properly know how to describe, other than I do think JL8 is more about the group as a unit than Bruce as a singular character, but let's keep talking ...

I'll be completely honest: I'm having a tough time thinking about what to say for this one in the wake of the Uvalde shooting. Just kind of weird that the next comic for commentary would be one that tangentially tackles the trauma of gun violence.
I'm going to give myself some time to try to find a way to discuss the comic on its own merits, and not in the larger context of everything going on. Thanks for your patience.

Sorry for the lack of commentaries everyone. Turns out I've tested positive for COVID, and while I'm doing fine, I have been a little on the tired side. But anywho, onto the comic.
I'll go ahead and get the complaint right out of the way: Bruce's noggin in panel three is ridiculous. I'm not sure why it's so peanut shaped, but it's bothered me for years. Unfortunately, this comm...
