New 'Mr. Big' cover

Here's the cover for the new edition of Mr. Big. (I'll announce some news about that soon.) My friend and fellow Conspirator Scott White did the colors.

'Xoc' #2 teaser

Here's a page from Xoc #2. I ink a page immediately after I pencil it.

The Photographer

Here's a segment from NPR on The Photographer.

The Podcast "Ink Studs" did a wonderful recent interview with artist Emmanuel Guibert, who did the art for the book.

Fascinating!

Adam's shark

I was pulling 'Xoc' pages yesterday to send to the printer. Adam was in my room with me, drawing. So I asked him to draw me a shark. He did, and I inked it for him. Here it is below. It looks very much like an ancient Mayan drawing and I'll likely use it for the next issue. Not the the fin (on the top of head), the gills, etc. Eat your heart out, Tiger Shark!

'Xoc' is closer!

Here's the cover. Now I gotta do a few things that aren't as fun, like the back inside page and then layout for print. Almost there!

'Xoc' is coming!

Personal things have kept me from getting Xoc done on the schedule I hoped for, but it's nearly done. I just need to finish the cover. Here's the logo, though.
