Magic Rona Thing

I have a new Mr. Squibly (my long running every-man character) comic that I'm excited to share, but do to Covid-19, the publication Magic Bullet #20, is indefinitely on hold.  This is a free paper so as an artist I'm not missing out on some sort of giant financial windfall.  Other artists are suffering way more than I am in this pandemic.  The thing about these comics I do for Magic Bullet, and other free or low cost publications, is that I do them out of love of the medium and not out of love of the mighty dollar.  My payment is people seeing and reading the work and for me that's enough.  As an artist I have always tried to make sure that my work is true to my vision, my vision is true to my heart, and that at the end of the day I will always be able to say that it fully represents me.  This comic is no different.  Enjoy a few bits of it.  Hopefully you will see the thing in it's entirety someday soon, in your hands, and on cheap newsprint as intended.  Look for it at Big Planet Comics or Atomic Books, whichever is closest to you.

Be safe, wash your hands, love one another.

Magic Bullet Artisphere Creeps

These portraits are all from the Saturday artist in residence I did for the Magic Bullet show at the Artisphere.  Show is up till Nov. 2nd.  Good stuff.  Thanks to all the creeped for sitting and chatting with me.

This fella was the on site manager for the Artisphere and was really cool.  I was really happy with how the sketch turned out.

Bruce actually came in on the Thursday before and was extremely interesting.  Highly knowledgeable and uber friendly.

When I scanned these I clipped the bottom of some of the drawings.  This one lost it's cleavage; which takes away from the sultry noir expression.  'spose I could re-scan, but that seems like a lot of work.

This one also got clipped on the bottom.  Kate was drawing her comic at the same time.  A nice capture of art capturing art.

My pops talking about the Nationals.

This couple from Petworth were really cool.  Mike suggests that if I moved to Petworth and had a longer commute, it would increase my "creep" opportunities.  Sound logic.

This young guy was there with his Dad who, forlorned, stated that his son did not "like" comics.  The son seems to like a copy of Mr. Squibly I had there so maybe he's just been reading all the wrong comics till now.

Yenifer wanted her quote bubble to be "What it is" an apparent inside joke that I kind of blew off.  She was funny.

This one of Xiomara was my favorite.  The colors really popped and i think i got a pretty quick an accurate gesture.  I liked her quote and she was just really enthusiastic the entire time.
