Apropos of Nothing

Apropos of Nothing

Last night I was a guest for the locally produced Apropos of Nothing podcast. We had a great time recording it, and  hopefully someone out there might enjoy listening to it. We talked about comics, performing, CONvergence and more! And I didn’t even realize it was going to be podcast #69! My thanks go out to Matt, Salsa, and Jena for inviting me to join in the fun!

My episode should soon be popping up soon for your listening pleasure(?) here: http://aonpodcast.com/

UPDATE: 

As promised, my episode of the Apropos of Nothing podcast is now online. Give it a listen!

 

 

Who Watches…

With all the recent talk about Watchmen and DC’s new Before Watchmen books, this popped into my head and I had to let it out.

Who Watches the Weight WatchersNite Owl was a little out of shape in the modern sequences…

Who Watches the Wheel WatchersPat and Vanna as Nite Owl and Silk Specter, anybody?

Who Watches the Bird Watchers?Apparently this is all about Nite Owl…

 

Young Justice #12 out today!

…and I didn’t draw it. Well I drew the cover, but the interior has “fill-in” art by another artist.

When  I started on the book it was about a month behind schedule, and month after month we just weren’t able to pull enough ahead to make up an issue in the schedule. So, we got a fill-in issue and I jumped directly from drawing #11 to Young Justice #13.

The good news for me is that starting with issue #14 I’m inking the interiors in addition to penciling them. I’m just finishing up the inks on #14 now while penciling issue #15. I can’t wait for everyone to see how that looks (although I’ve inked all my covers on this title, so the look shouldn’t be too startling), but that’s a couple of issues off.

In the meantime, Young Justice #12 is written by the regular team of Greg Weisman and Kevin Hopps, and continues the storyline wiht Ra’s al Ghul, Talia al Ghul and Clayface begun last issue. It’s a good read and I recommend checking it out. I’ll be back drawing the interiors next month with part three of our Clayface epic!

As always, you can pick up the comic in digital form or at your local comic shop, and questions and comments are always welcome!

JLU #43 final page

The folks at the Boosteriffic! Blog (a Booster Gold fan site) reached out to me recently for some comments on my work on Justice League Unlimited #43 which featured both Booster Gold and Blue Beetle, and had a long and twisted path to publication.

You can find my original blog post on the issue and the story behind it here.
