here's the cover for Fear Agent: I Against I #6.

this is the solicitation version, which means i'll likely fiddle with it before it's all said and done.

here's the cover for Fear Agent #26, kickin' and a-gougin' in the mud and the blood and the beer.


bigger view in the GALLERY.

Here's the cover for Fear Agent #25, which was a lot of fun to do.
Might tweak it a bit before final print, but this is more or less it.



As always, there's a more detailed view in the GALLERY.

Here's the most recent cover for Fear Agent: I Against I #3 (issue 24)



damn, i love this book.

the biggest question i always get is "when are you returning to the Walking Dead?" and since i've never had any plans to return, i've always said, "Never."

but like my mom always said, never say never, and here i am, returning to FULL art duty on The Walking Dead for a 6-issue fill-in arc, starting with #60, following my upcoming Fear Agent story.

So here's my newest cover, for FA: I Against I #2 (issue 23)

and i recently did a little interview with Newsarama regarding this upcoming Fear Agent run. Click here to Czech it out.

Also, pour out a 40oz for Arthur C. Clarke, kids. R.I.P.

here are the colors for Crawlspace: XXXombies #4, over the ever-amazing Kieron Dwyer.



hope ya dig!

Dark Horse's June solicitations are up, and in 'em is Fear Agent: I Against I #1.

I'm super excited about this run. it should be a real blast, and it'll be the first time i've ever inked myself on this series.



and as always, a larger version is in the Gallery.

So, here's the cover for the new Amory Wars vol.1 TPB, coming soon from Image comics.



colors by the ever-lovin' Jason Latour.
as always, a more detailed view is in the Gallery.

So, the folks at SpikeTV.com have launched the new Battle Pope cartoon, done by Noodle Soup, the dudes that brought you Venture Bros! And on top of that, they've already got a handful of episodes up to view! go check it out!

and in celebration of this, i have put up a gallery of the Battle Pope covers on the site! I have some more i need to find the files for, but the lion's share is already in there.

So i finished this a while ago, but had no way to post it until my server reset at the end of the month.

So, here she is, the cover for Fear Agent vol4: Hatchet Job, which was written by Rick and the interiors were done by Jerome Opena.



also, i added the version of the Fear Agent: I Against I cover that showed up on the internet before Christmas. Turns out, that cover image will go unused in lieu of a cooler one i did shortly afterward. So, until i decide to share that one, you can check out what will not be:



as always, you can check out larger versions of these images in the Gallery.

It's been a long time since i left you without a dope beat to step to.

2008 is in full effect, and with it, i bring artwork!
here are the colors for XXXombies #3, with lineart by the indomitable Kieron Dwyer.


And with the good, comes the bad.
Rich Johnston reports the end of The Exterminators at issue #30. Unfortunately, this is more than mere rumor, and it breaks my heart to know it. I sincerely would like to thank everyone who dared give us a chance for their support. I hope it was fun for you guys, because i know i had a blast. I only regret not being able to do more of it.

In trying times when poor-to-mediocre books are being publicly bashed by the readers who still habitually buy them in droves, but books like ours struggle to find a modest sustainable audience despite the love the fans and critics have shown, it's hard not to take things a little sorely. But those who have read The Exterminators and supported it have been nothing but kind and wonderful to us, for which i can never thank them enough. All good things must pass, but you have all made this one a great time while it lasted.

just finished the cover for Fear Agent: Hatchet Job #5.
this was a fun effect to figure out. wasn't sure what i was doing when i got into it, but i think i came up with something worthwhile. That's why i love doing covers.

just finished this cover for Exterminators #27, which incidentally will be a fill-in drawn by John Lucas. Maybe i'll get one of these to myself before too long.



i'm back and forth on some things here, but i can safely say that i painted the SHIT out of that cantaloupe!

**updated this guy after some more editorial notes came back. made me cover up my sweet sweet melon and now the entire idea seems hamfisted. i dunno. not my favorite cover.
Anyway, here it is. i hope you guys dig it.

I just finished the cover for Fear Agent vol.3, and i'm pretty pleased with it. I don't speak in absolutes (usually), but i can say that this is among the manliest comics covers ever done. All i needed was to somehow work in him having sex with a hot chick, while riding a rodeo bull while carving a steak out of its side... and have the robots driving monster trucks... maybe i'll go back to the drawing board. ;)

Also, anyone going to Dr Sketchy's here in KC tonight is in for some bomb-ass cookies. Kara's outdone herself.

Here are my latest colors, over Kieron Dwyer's lines for XXXombies #2.

my first Marvel work, and what a doozy of an assignment!
another childhood wish partially fulfilled! Hopefully this'll lead to more covers or maybe a stint on the book, eventually.



colors by Dave McCaig, with a larger view available in the Covers Gallery.

Pretty happy with this one.
As always, i had plenty of ideas on how to spend more time on it, but sometimes you just gotta call it walk away.

So, Top cow is doing a new series of "pilots," bringing some new blood into some old familiar funnybook faces. Damn if I ever really thought i'd fall head over heels for RipClaw, but leave it to my boy Jason Aaron to hook me.

The cover's not 100% done, but here's the version that went out for solicits.

And there's a larger view in the gallery, if you're interested.

Vertigo asked me recently to do a cover for The Exterminators, which was pretty thrilling. My first DC cover, so I did my best to make 'em want more.


check it out in the gallery for a larger view.

Here she is, all painted up like Jezebel.



hope you dig it.

Here's the lineart for the newest Fear Agent cover, a tribute to my favorite Jack Davis cover from Two Fisted Tales. Colors coming soon! Also, the high-res is available for colorists in the Artists' Resources section.



i know you might be thinking "jeez, shut up about Jack Davis already!"
and to that i say, No. i will not shut up about Jack Davis. Ever.

Jack Davis drew a Fear Agent cover!

This one ran in the recent Newsarama interview I did, but i figured i should share it anyway, for anyone who didn't check it out. As far as I'm concerned, this is as cool as it gets!

Long time no post. I've been in the hammer lane on work this last month, with plenty to show for it, some of which I'll actually even show you guys! Namely, the first two covers for Fear Agent's Dark Horse relaunch. So, get an eyeful of these, and I hope you dig what you see:

Also, if you haven't already noticed, i had some bug problems with my Gallery installation, so i have upgraded to Gallery2, which you can check out by clicking here or in the navigation bar up top. The old content's not 100% back up yet, but it's getting there.

And lastly there are a couple of good interviews that went up recently, which contain some more artwork, and something not entirely unlike insight, I guess.
Fear Agent @ NEWSARAMA ....aaand....
The Exterminators @ COMIC BOOK RESOURCES

Cheers!
