Music Inspires Comics...A Horror Tribute

A friend of mine, in response to hubbub over my first comic, asked if I would do him the favor of drawing a short, horror-themed comic for his band's new album. The requested project is merely a three-page tribute to old EC Horror Comics and the band's genre is the ever-entertaining genre of Necrobilly. I've posted a couple photos of my work on the book below.

The book will also feature zombified pin-ups from artist friends Chad Blakely (http://www.chadblakely.blogspot.com/) and Stacy Roberts (www.thornygrove.com) who were incredible enough to take the time to create some terrific pieces. Please check out their work and support their creative efforts. Also, I'll have a pin-up in Mr. Blakely's new book in the near future so keep your eyes peeled for that.

Here are the photos!

After the Expo, After the Signing

So here I am after my first comic expo and my first comic shop signing. Sitting behind a table which bore the product of my work was wonderful. I felt so relieved, so happy, and so very proud. I learned several lessons during both events on what to do and what not to do. Now I'm looking forward to the next show.

I'm thankful that over all this time I found it in myself to persevere and finish my book. Overcoming my lack of confidence and my occasional lack of enthusiasm really helped in the end.
