And so it begins…

And so it begins…

I guess that’s a silly, overly-serious title for this first post on my website, but I’ve been known to be both silly and overly-serious, so there’s that. I wish there was something profound or exciting to say at this initial juncture, but all the exciting things I have upcoming are for the “News” section that I’ll get to next. More will come, I promise, this first post is just to get something on the site. I won’t be launching this site until I’ve posted a bit more on here, anyway, so this will be a redundant post at that time. Two or so weeks from now when this is up for all to see there will be many more posts and self-indulgent crap from me to you. You’re welcome.

So until then, hello. I love you all and I hope this site gives you a better insight into my work both past and future.

As Mark Twain said, “The secret to getting ahead is getting started.” Of course, as this somewhat advanced point in my life and career I probably should have taken Mr. Clemen's secret to heart a bit earlier.

I wasn’t sure what image to include here, but then the light above me staining the popcorn roof of my study caught my eye. The light and dark of the surface reminded me of an alien landscape of sorts, lit by a strange, otherworldly sun. Why not? I thought. Post that. (Also, it reminds me I need to replace that hideous light with something nicer.)

I’ve not been as active on my site as I intended, so I thought I’d post a quick picture from my sketchbook to remind you all I’m alive. This is a wonderful sketch by the late John Watkiss, a fantastic artist who I...

And he's Kevin Matchstick (Mage) with Supes, by my friend, the one and only Matt Wagner (who also gave me my first American work on Grendel Tales: Four Devils One Hell, although not published until years after it was...
