cover: Red Before Black #1
Maybe I can’t do comics just yet, but I can do pictures that take as long to read as one — this cover was for an old friend Goran Sudžuka’s (and Stephanie Phillips’) new book, so I wanted to go Read More

cover: The Witcher – Corvo Bianco #5
And the last one, sooner than I expected–
-
cover: The Witcher – Corvo Bianco 1234
A hiatus with work and blog (and literally everything else, but that part’s not new), because of the body very much not cooperating again, but there’s still covers I didn’t get to here. More unexpected subject matter too. In anticipation Read More

cover: The Writer #3
(A brief break from drawing scowling grumps)
-
cover: Creature from the Black Lagoon Lives!
More from the “you don’t expect me drawing this” department–
-
cover: Void Rivals #9
A few uphill weeks in a row again, but some recent covers are coming out, so here’s one:
-
cover: Animal Pound #4
I don’t draw animals that often but I had a stretch this year where for a few weeks everyone asked me to. This story at least suggested a very graphic treatment. (The cat one was my favorite as a picture, Read More

unfinished / unused
One from last year that was just too slow to make it to press in time– I remember it being a particularly impossible period so I’m amazed I managed to draw even the patterns — though without the color I Read More

cover: Slow Burn #5
This issue is out at the end of February, I think, so here’s one of my favorite pictures from last year.

cover: Our Bones Dust #3
Done during one of my more uphill times, but I was happy to be able to do a cover for Ben Stenbeck’s creator-owned book. And since it’s for another artist, I allowed myself to do it almost how I’d do Read More

cover: Christopher Chaos #8
When I did the other Christopher Chaos cover, this was the only alternative idea I had, and the editors approved both (hooray!) so this one was done for a later issue, out in December.

the how: Christopher Chaos #6 cover, or “on not seeing the picture in your head, on where the idea comes from, and on influences both invisible and non-existent”
Sometimes a cover is best as a simple picture of the person standing there, or a dynamic action shot. Other times, a completely different approach works out better and leads to more interesting places. Here’s a case of the latter Read More

cover: black hammer: the end #4
I had a few directions for this one, from the maximalist “just put everything in there” to a 3D one (using the model I made sometime in the middle of issue four of Skulldigger and Skeleton Boy and then promptly Read More

cover: the expanse: dragon tooth #7
Sometimes the cover needs a twist, other times the best course is to draw the thing. This was one of the straightforward ones.

Lobster Johnson Omnibus Volume 2
The second hardcover omnibus volume is out now, collecting the last (and best) volume I did with John Arcudi, Pirate’s Ghost and Metal Monsters of Midtown, as well as the first book, The Iron Prometheus by Jason Armstrong and Mignola, Read More
-
cover: Top Secret Service
This is for a graphic novel that has so much going on that I thought the best course for the cover would be to include everything (or at least as much as fits on one page). I don’t know why Read More

cover: Grim #11

cover: house of slaughter #13

cover: damn them all #5
Variant cover for the new Si Spurrier + Charlie Adlard + Sofie Dodgson + Jim Campbell book. Original thumbnail and rough:
