Aquaman

Get ready for a year of AQUAMAN covers, and twice a month at that!

Here is one of my first covers for the new series. I turned in the first two at the same time, so I am not sure if this will be for the first or second issue, but we'll find out soon enough- AQUAMAN #1 hits the shelves 6/22.

New item in the shop

I added a handful of signed LEGEND OF KORRA prints to the shop. For the folks who have been asking, now is your chance to grab one before they're gone.

More soon.

New shop!

I set up a new shop where I will eventually be offering original art, from published covers and interior pages to personal sketches, as well as prints of my work.

I have just a few pieces of original art available at the moment (the two maidens from my last post as well as this full color Supergirl) to make sure all is working well. I will be adding more art over the next few weeks.

I've added a link to the top of the page, or just click here to visit now. Thanks for looking!

Sketches on toned paper

A couple of fair maidens to try out/use up some toned paper I've had sitting around for ages.

Superman Vs. Batman covers

Superman #50 and Batman #50 feature variant covers that connect to form one image, which is what you see here. Madness Games & Comics sponsored these covers, just as they did for my DK3 variant.

After the initial sketch I wasn't sure how I would finish it, but as I got into the final I found myself drawing with an almost clinically clean ink line, completely open save for Superman's black hair, and coloring with a vibrant palette. There's probably more than enough darkness out there already, I reckon.

And while I am no expert, I believe a true Superman vs. Batman showdown would end quite quickly with Batman utterly destroyed in seconds, but that may just be my dumb logic speaking.
