Just a quick sketch. Might tinker with the proportions more. Extra commentary below 🙂

I’ve noticed that I’ve been getting some ads for Kickstarter campaigns in the sidebar. It seems like a lot of the campaigns for comics projects are to print them, not develop a project. I’d love to do a really nice, gorgeously professionally printed edition of chapters I-III in one volume, with revamped art, a fancy colour cover, and some extra material (what actually happened during that incident when baby Mus and a goat nearly destroyed the legion’s HQ?). It wouldn’t be too expensive to print, but a Kickstarter campaign to cover about half of the upfront cost—on a sort of pre-order model—would definitely help get it done. Might even get it printed in time for NY Comic Con. What do you think of the idea, internets?

Sketch of the week? Month? In any case, a digital doodle (click to see larger if you’re curious). I might tinker with the face a bit. Because it’s digital and I can tinker at will! Whoo!

Also, I am sick. Boo. But not, like cat-bite going-to-hospital sick, so I hope to be up and about and drawing a comic tomorrow.

Monster Boyfriends

I JUST noticed that, all this time, the link to the My Boyfriend Is a Monster webcomic preview in the right sidebar has been going to the wrong page. I’ve updated it. Pretty pretty cover art by Alitha Martinez below is for Book #3, My Boyfriend Bites. (Yeah, the stories are a little bit tongue in cheek.) Available where all fine books are purveyed.

If you’ve looked at the series before, it’s now up to 6 titles, with new books drawn by Janina Görrissen (Ghost: I Date Dead People; she’s also the artist for the Zombie boyfriend story, I Love Him to Pieces) and Natalie Nourigat (Mummy: Wrapped Up in You). You could check out the series while you wait on me and the Romans, and there is also much entertainment to be found from the several fine sponsors in the right-hand column.
