Still Broadcasting

Posted on by

I did this illustration for my brother’s birthday. The actual date for the occasion was last week but I wasn’t able to give it to him until yesterday. The two main gentlemen are Jack Lightning (on the left) and Davey Thunder (on the right). Glenn has been featuring them recently (along with the Elf and the Dragon and the Ugly Dog of Heaven[not in this picture]) on his  Lovesettlement blog in his Thousand project. Every day Glenn posts a hundred words of prose/poetry with the goal of hitting 100,000 words total. As of today he’s got 55, 100 words down. Go Glenn!

The Highly Unlikely Adventures of Moe and Detritus #2

Posted on by

Here’s the second issue of The Highly Unlikely Adventures of Moe and Detritus. I also stole this one from my friend’s Facebook gallery. And many thanks to him for posting these pages so I could!

This issue introduces Buffy Crawfield, who would go to have a reoccurring role in Misspent Youths and Chickenhead, who would have a reappear in later issues of Moe and Detritus. The back cover ad is for an album by Ruptured Internal Organs, a band that Moe opens for in the first issue of Misspent Youths. Not that I knew any of this when I drew this story. I was making it up as I went along.











The Highly Unlikely Adventures of Moe and Detritus #1

Posted on by

Way back in 1988 I drew and published (via a copy machine at this new 24 hour copy chain called Kinkos) the first issue of The Highly Unlikely Adventures of Moe and Detritus. I really had no idea what I’d do with the characters and I certainly didn’t plan on making The Pile one of the regular case. But there you go.

And here you go. A friend of mine recently posted these scans online at his Facebook account. Now I’ve swiped them and sharing them with the rest of you.

If you have a hard time reading the lettering just click on the page for a larger image.











This minicomic was 8 pages plus a cardstock cover. If you count you can see that there are only 11 pages here. I used the back cover to advertise Cheap Thrills, my first minicomic series. My friend didn’t include a scan of that so it’s not included here either. You’re not missing much.

Progress Report – Oziana Submission

Posted on by

This one might be finished. It might have some lettering still to be done. It might require some more illustrations. It all depends on what the writer finally decides. It’s a comic that has mostly been accepted for a near future issue of the Oziana. Currently there are nine pages finished. I just can’t take the project off my plate until I know what might need to be done and it’s been sent to the Oziana editor.
