Kragor, Ash-Aman, and G.R.U.N.T.! Oh, My!

What's up, y'all! I've almost let June slip by without a post on what's going on in my little corner of the comicbook world! Letting a month go by without mentioning what's going on would make it seem like...nothing's going on! (That made sense in my head...) Ahem. Stuff is going on! Here it is:

Midnight Stranger in Fun Adventure Comics #3, and that magnificent mag is available digitally right now via DriveThruComics! It'll soon be available through comiXology and in print through IndyPlanet, too! And very soon, FAC #4 will be out with a classic Kragor story, so thank's Warren Montgomery and Will Lill Comics for making summertime Fun Adventure Comics time!

Speaking of Kragor, Incredible Ian Groff has completed the pencils for a brand new Kragor tale, "The Ballad of Setoora!" Here's a little teaser of a page for you to drool over...

Remarkable Russ Martin has completed the pencils for the first chapter of Ash-Aman's origin and is now inking away! Prepare to have your mind blown by this gorgeous splash page...

Wondrous Wes Wedman has teamed up with yours truly to create a brand new hero called G.R.U.N.T.! What is G.R.U.N.T.? He's a soldier...he's a zombie...he's a man who's been "Genetically Re-engineered with Ultimate Nano Technology"...and he's gonna knock your socks off!

Oh, yeah, more big news: I'm going to be contributing a brand new/retro feature to a future issue of InDELLible's All-New Popular Comics! We're doing an old-school story featuring an old-school character called...The Voice!

And, as always, I'm still looking for an artist for my western Guns & Rosa. I also have a few 5-6 page one-off sci-fi and horror comics if any artistic type out there is interested in just a fun little diversion...and I have some cool new super-hero ideas as well! If you're an artist who loves to draw good, old-fashioned comics with a twist, send samples to: thegroovyagent@yahoo.com ! Pax!!

Hard at Work...

Hey! Hope the New Year is treating you well! Just thought I'd pop in to publicly thank Warren Montgomery, publisher of Will Lill Comics for giving me another shot with Kragor and Alex Miracle! Both of these stories were published in my own Blue Moon Comics back in the late 1990s/early 2000s.

I have a special fondness for Kragor, and still write stories about him quite often (I have about a half dozen on hand--ANYONE OUT THERE WANNA DRAW 'EM?). Ahem. I hope that an enterprising artist (or several of 'em) might read this and be interested in taking a shot at Kragor. I know Louis Sollune (then going by the name of JP Dupras) set the bar high with the first installment, but reach for the stars, baby! Check out his sensational splash page:

Alex Miracle was actually created as a possible submission to Gary Carlson's Big Bang Comics (I came "this close" to having a couple stories published in Big Bang back in the day). It's a "Big Bang" version of Adam Strange, obviously, but I had a lot of fun with it. Artists Ernest Edwards and David Vance did a tremendous job on that story. Again, I think you'll agree when you get a load of the splash...

I'm not sure when Kragor or Alex Miracle will be making their Will Lill debut, but when I find out, I'll let ya know right here!

I've also been working on a couple more new concepts that I'm pretty excited about. Maybe I can fill you in with a bit more information about them next time around. Take care!
