Whoa! I haven't posted yet this year, but it's not because nothing's going on in my little corner of the comicbook universe. Nope, nuh uh, no way! In fact, SO much is going on I actually kinda/sorta forgot to come by here and update. Sorry 'bout that! So, here's a giant/treasury-sized update loaded with awesome art to make up for the delay--and to (hopefully) make ya wanna buy a lotta my comics coming out in the next few months!
As promised,
The Creeps magazine ran my "High Moon" in ish #13! Cool, huh? Well, get ready for ish #14 'cause I'll have a story in that one, too! Two issues in a row! "That's a Wrap" will show just how dangerous it is to make a mummy movie. It features stupendous art by Mansyur Daman (who killed it on "High Moon". Hope you "dig" it!
Surprising Comics is about to go to print with not one, not two, but THREE collectors' item classics very shortly!
Depthon of the Deep #1 features three brand new underwater adventures written by legendary
Aquaman author Steve Skeates, but somehow I got lucky enough to write a fourth tale for that ish for the incredible art team of Donnie Page (penciler) and Coink Adink (inker). Here's their cover art...
...and the splash page, to boot!
Golden Era #2 allowed me to write a very Golden Age-style story featuring GA character
The Green Mask! My buddy David Johnson Jr. supplied the most excellent art!
Surprising Universe #2 will feature the second
Unbeatable Brick tale with our hero battling a pair of brotherly baddies known collectively as
The Deadly Duo! The action-packed art is by Joseph Graves (penciler) and Donald Willman (inker). They even let me letter it! Here's the splash...
After that titanic two parter (yep, it's continued in ish #3) wraps up, I'm working with the indescribably talented JW Erwin on another multi-part
Unbeatable Brick mini-epic...
And if all goes according to plan, Surprising Publisher Mark Davis has given JW and me the green-light to produce a
Night Spider mini-series featuring full-length (22 page) stories! Yeah, here's a little sneak-peek just to whet your appetite for the goodness to come late this year...
Over at Will Lill, in just a few weeks "No Man Can Stop...Toombora!" with art by Phil Fried and the late, great Dick Ayers will be re-printed in
Fun Adventure Comics! #6...
...but best of all,
Ash-Aman, magnificently illustrated, co-plotted, and lettered by the awe-inspiring Russ Martin, will appear in all his cosmic glory in
Fun Adventure Comics! #7...here's the cover and a a few random pages guaranteed to make you go "wow!"
Later this summer,
Midnight Stranger, with art by the incomparable Joe Koziarski, natch, will return to
Fun Adventure Comics! with the wrap up of his first six-part story arc. Here are a couple teaser pages from
Midnight Stranger part four...
Aaaaand, don't forget to order your copy of the a-w-e-s-o-m-e
Monty's World Vol. 3 tpb which features the first five issues of
Fun Adventure Comics! (including the first three
Midnight Stranger tales,
Alex Miracle, Black Rose, and "Snake Eyes"). It's available most everywhere classy books are sold!
But wait, there's more!
Joe Koz and I are hard at work on two more features! One is
Guns & Rosa, of course! Check out the splash for the second
G&R saga...
Our second new feature is a brand new sci-fi super-hero:
Max Miracle! Max is gonna be nothing but F-U-N! Check out these previews...
Whew! I think that's everything (for now)! Next time I go more than a month without an update, somebody slap me, okay?
Now, make sure you visit all my publishers and place your orders for all these cool comics coming your way! We're trying to create a new Groovy Age here, and you don't wanna miss out!
