As much a real life is making a living drawing comics.

I’ve been quite fortunate thus far in my career to have the opportunities I’ve had– I’m not downplaying that. Here’s to a better tomorrow!

On with the sketch!

_____________________________

90 percent of my sketches are on pieces of paper with random junk scribbled all over them. I have no idea if this is interesting to anyone, but it’s the truth of it– a head here while on the phone, an ear I saw while watching a TV show, a son inspires me to draw an expression, etc etc. You might also see a lot of teeeeeny tiny character shots drawn about an inch high– just because I wanna.

I just walked out of the comic shop yesterday with a hefty stack– many of those nuDCU books. My current favorite of the bunch is Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s BATMAN so far. To think that I’ve never really collected more than 2 DC books for an extended period of time before, this is pretty impressive. I’ve also never read such a mainstream list of books before. Yesterday’s stack had Flash, Batman, Justice League, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Batgirl, Thor, Captain America, and several other comic book icons, as well as several other creator-owned titles that I adore. More on that soon.

On with the sketches!

Jeremy right before attending  SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE!

We. Had. An. EPIC. Show. New York was great to us, and we couldn’t have ended the convention season better. Thanks to all the fans and friends that swung by, bought us drinks, hung out after-hours, or, y’know…

… Invited us to a live taping of Saturday Night Live as a special guest! Anna Faris was hosting, and we had a wonderful time. Even got a backstage pass afterward and saw a bit of how the magic is made every week. Thanks, Scott!

Here’s a piece I did for a fan at Dragon*Con. It was in a sketchbook labeled “Spider-Man’s Friends”, and as gorgeous as some of the pieces were, I’m disappointed no one else had gone the route of the cartoon trio. You’re just lucky I didn’t add Ms. Lion!

Originally set at 11 x 17 inches, which is typical comic page dimensions, I’ve edited it a bit to give it the contrast I’ve been itching to see it in ever since I handed it over. If I ever get the chance, I’ll do more! Those buildings demand some tone! Spidey needed his negative space! And I needed the closure. Enjoy!

Year ago, when Marvel seemed relatively interested in me, I did rounds and rounds and rounds of samples for them. Being a gigantic fan of the 80s Spider-man and His Amazing Friends cartoon, I worked up this three-pager from a colleague’s script. Thought you might dig seeing this.
