Saturday Funnies!

  I am putting together a newspaper comics section. Here is the very first illustration of 2025 – the Header. I am planning on this being filled with several of my comics, as well as some games/puzzles, and a readers section. I’m also planning to offer this both on-line, and in print. Haven’t decided if, for the print edition, I will go broadsheet (large), or Tabloid. I’m leaning towards tabloid for a number of reasons.

  The print version will be quarterly. On-line version probably through “Sub-stack.” Both by subscription.

Tales to Astonish!

Here’s another Classic Comic Book cover recreation. This time, “Tales to Astonish #31” May 1962. This is a completely hand drawn pen & ink piece.

This piece is for sale. Message or call if interested.

Here’s a comic cover I just finished – from My Hero Academia, with credit to the original artist, Yoko Akiyama.  Not sure if I’ll do the full color version of this one, it’s meant to be an example of a “pencils” cover that can be ordered. 

Caricature cover…


 

 

 

 

 

My latest caricature cover – Werewolf by Night #13. Stay tuned for more samples of these caricature options you’ll be able to order soon!

Here we have the comparison between pencil, inks, and full color

20 Years of Clamcakes!

     It’s hard to believe that’s it’s been 20 years since I came up with my comic strip, Clamcakes! This has not been my only strip (it’s been 45 years since my very first strip). But Clamcakes is the best fulfillment of my childhood desire to be a comic strip artist. The zany characters! The crazy scenarios!  They expose the foibles of society with humor – just what a comic strip should do – hold a mirror up to you so you can laugh at yourself (and others. Let’s be honest), and, maybe, examine the things you think and do.

  I believe comic strips are a unique artform in this, and so many other ways. Let’s keep them going!
