This one is for those who'll be in NYC tomorrow night:

The Society of Illustrators in NYC is having a killer art opening tomorrow night: Artists Against the War, featuring art work by such great artists as Peter Kuper, Steve Brodner and Lynne Foster. You can also pick up a copy of their awesome book.

Zombie Pin-up For Zombie Bomb #3, Dark Daze by Terminal Press

The holidays sent me into such a tailspin that I forgot to post this way back in December. I did this pin-up for Zombie Bomb #4, Dark Daze, which debuted last month. The comic features new works by your favorite creators Adam Miller, Rich Woodall, Keith McCleary, Josh Morrissette and me. Grab your own copy of it and while you're at it, order a copy of Zombie Bomb #3, Highly Contagious that has the comic "NecRomancer" written by Keith McCleary and drawn by me.


The great folks at Terminal Press also used my zombie pin-up as part of their promo for the debut of Zombie Bomb! #4, Dark Daze.

Spider-man Commission

Commissioned Spider-man piece for my good friend Rebecca Giordano.

Bad luck with women, lack of money, corny sense of humor, and really cool super powers: what's not to love of Spider-man. It was fun to do something with one of my favorite superheroes.

The History of a Dream, The Indypendent #160

This illustration accompanied Nick Power's alternate take on the last ten years, which appeared in the latest issue of The Indypendent.

Cover for The Indypendent #160, All We Need is Hate

Here's the original illustration I did for the latest issue of The Indypendent.




And here's the version that hit the streets. The feature article by Arun Gupta shows how violence is an integral part of the right wing's rhetoric.

Work in Progress, Zombie Figure

Inked this piece shortly before the holiday maelstrom. Still need to hammer out the textured background and do some possible touch ups.

Cartoons with a punch

Cartoon by Zunar.

A buddy sent me this link. Cartoon Movement is a really cool site that collects political cartoons and is open for submission.

Recently Read

Laymon's disturbing and horrific novel The Woods are Dark charges with exciting twists and turns but there was - I never I'd ever say this - too much needless sex and nudity. A decent read for those with strong stomachs.




Dick's The Cosmic Puppets is a far-reaching novel that begins with an odd mystery and leads to a startling look at our place in the cosmos. He spins this yarn without losing the reader. A definite recommendation.

ZombieBombTV Season 1 Finale

The wild and awesome folks at Zombie Bomb! just posted their latest video by Tom Bennett featuring creators Adam Miller, Keith McCleary, Rob Dukes, Andrew Houle, Josh Morrissette, Brian Ferrara, Jessica Ferrara and yours truly at the New York City Comic Con!

New York City Comic Con 2010

Photos from New York City Comic Convention 2010. I wasn't a shutter bug as i usually am at these kind of things though I promise to be next time.

Thanks again to all those who stopped by the Terminal Press/Elite Gudz booth and showed their love and support. And apologies to all who I missed. You all make this so worthwhile.

The fams digging the zombs.

Mom showing off the fruits of her labor: a zombie-loving son.

Islamophobia Illustration

I did this illustration for an upcoming story on in The Indypendent. The article is on how the right wing use Islamophobia to unify people and fleece them of their money. I'll post a link to the article once it's online.

Keep on, keeping on

It's been a while since I've posted here because I've been finishing up a comic project. Once it's done and I get the OK from the editors, I'll throw those puppies up on this.

I also have some other illustrations here that are in their nascent stages. They will eventually find their way onto this here blog.

Media Spin on Flotilla

Did this illo for Arun Gupta's story "The Victim that is Israel" which appeared in the latest issue of The Indypendent. This dramatic story gave me an opportunity to use a more expressionistic style. (I was definitely was looking to Ashley Wood and Brett Weldele for this one.)

Huwaida, Final Version

Here's the final version of the Huwaida illustration. Looking at it again, I see that I still need to learn more about digital coloring and toning...

Huwaida Illustration, Black and White

This is an illustration I'm working on for a newspaper. It's been a while since I've done a straight illo. This is a rougher, looser style than I normally use, which will hopefully pack it with more dramatic punch.

MoCCA Fest 2010, Recap Pt.1

No lie, this was the best MoCCA Arts Fest EVER! I had a blast. GINORMOUS thanks to all who came to my booth and showed their love. You really kicked the fest up to 11. Yay!

I'll post photos and whatnots soon. And to those who either emailed, texted, noted, posted, or got in contact with me in some digital fashion, I'll get back to you asap. ;)

Cthulu Print at MoCCA Fest 2010

It pays to clean my room every now and then. I came across an illustration I did last year and completely forgot about it.

Now this print of the Lovecraftian elder god, Cthulu, will be available at the upcoming MoCCA Arts Fest.
