Some big news this time kids!

+Check the infrequently updated studioblog for some SPX memories, but the big SPX news is that while I was there, I signed a contract with Adhouse Books' Chris Pitzer for a new full-sized comic version of The Secret Voice!!! That's right, Adhouse is going to publish a regular series by little old me! My plan is to have it come out every 6 months, give or take, and each issue will be 64 pages of goodness, with 1 large standalone story in each issue, a couple other shorter stories and one short continuing serial as well. As of right now, we're planning on having it come out right before San Diego Comicon. I need that lead time because I'm desperately trying to graduate right now and I'm knee deep in my senior projects, but that will all be over by December, when I can begin work in earnest on the first issue of the Secret Voice #1. I'm looking forward to making this book as awesome as it can possibly be, and I hope you'll give it a try when it's solicited through Diamond to comic shops.

+In related news, I'll have a 10 page full-color story in Adhouse's Project: Superior, which is mostly alternative comics creators doing their own super hero stories. I'm coloring my story with a mixture of ink washes and photoshop, and it's looking pretty cool so far, if I do say so myself..

+if you would like to purchase my recent mini comics, they are available from the usscatastrophe store: http://www.usscatastrophe.com/store/ , easily purchased with paypal.
Supa Zraz
Secret Voice
the scans are not the best, the books look better in real life and are FULL OF EXCITEMENT!
many of the other mini comics they offer are also quite excellent and/or better than mine. If you are a retailer, Global Hobo has copies of Supa Zraz available for distro with retailer pricing (not up on their website yet, but just email them), and Last Gasp will soon enough as well.
