Insolence

Hey folks!

I'm making tremendous progress on this month's Prince of Persia comic! I keep adding depth to the story and scenes and I think this will turn out to be one of my best "bad ending" tales! 😄

I'm really glad to be writing a story from the villain's POV again. Bad guys make for more interesting characters, I find. And I believe this was Jordan Mechner's intent when he created PoP.

For instance - Jaffar is the only named char...

The Journey Home

Hey folks!

Starting on solid footing with this month's King's Quest IV chapter. We're in the final act of Rosella's tale. It'll take a couple of chapters to get through it and I'm not gonna rush it. I've got some great ideas I want to bring to life leading to up "The End". 😊

When we left off the previous chapter, Rosella was traumatized by the conseq...

Here's another sneak peek at the Cyberpunk + NieR: Automata epilogue releasing this month! I'm finally done with the narrative scenes and now chipping away at the spice! 👌

Now that I'm coming to the end of this comic run, I'm introspecting on the themes at play. This story's unique in that there isn't one full-time male that plays foil to our girl's exploits - th...

Hey folks,

Work on the Cyberpunk + NieR: Automata epilogue continues, but I admit I'm a bit behind. I've been in a fugue state these past few days, but I hope to make it up with the time I have left till the end of the month.

There's a weird reason for my mind fog. I recently finished Shuzo Oshimi's 2025-04-14 07:10:08 +0000 UTC View Post

You Only Live Twice

Hey folks!

I took a few days to set up some scenes for my TTLG reboot, and I'd like to share a few shots from my overall storyboard.

Unlike my original run, I'm completely changing the narrative and themes. For one, this story will be told from Seymour's POV. He's a kindly old school teacher who's lived an unremarkable but honest life. And one day, he finds out he's got can...

Try Your Luck

Hey folks!

I wanted to do a year-end retrospective and a mental roadmap for the future.

The Past

This has been one helluva year. Started off with my mom passing away, which came as a relief. She was pretty far gone in her dementia and it took a lot to be her live-in caregiver. I think my fondest memories of her are when we watched James Bond marathons on A&E. So I did up a Casino Royale 2024-12-12 22:07:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Getting Heavy

Hey folks!

I'm back from my short break and needed to warm-up a bit. So I decided to brush up an old idea I want to flesh out in the future.

Sony is celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the PlayStation console this month. I had every single one. Metal Gear Solid was my first game and since then - I was hooked. I love single player games and PS generally had the best ones.

One of my favs was Heavy Rain. It had its flaws but it more than made up f...
