She has red dyed hair (her roots are coming in) a knife in hand and latex gloves on. She's sweating from the exertion of some unknown and gruesome activity.

More of the stuff I worked on!

Plus edits on VR Troopers; Samurai Jack; Canto; The Kill Lock; Dune; Lawful; Profane; ROM; M.A.S.K.; Micronauts; Wynonna Earp; The October Faction; Princess Royale; x-overs with MLP, Ghostbusters, Star Trek, TMNT, Back to the Future, and way way more!

The cover to Transformers vs. the Terminator #1, art by Gavin Fullerton. It depicts Optimus Prime in stark red with a blue eye, but part of his face is torn off, revealing at T-800 endoskeleton in blue with a red eye. I co-plotted this series with John Barber & Tom Waltz, and co-wrote it with John.

The cover to the first volume of Hello Darkness, the horror anthology series from BOOM! Studios. Art by Paolo Rivera. It depicts the cover girl, Darcia, on the edge of a clawfoot bathtub. She's blowing out a candle, but the smoke is revealing a bunch of spooky stuff in the darkness around her. I was one of the original editors on the series and still have stories coming out that I edited.

The cover for the collection of Scarenthood by Nick Roche. Art by Nick Roche. It is a stark, graphic cover of a man taking his child out for a walk in a stroller in front of an ominous looking building. Buried in the ground is a statue covered in thorns, which are extending to follow the father and child. I edited this series too!

The cover to Samidoon: Comics for a Free Palestine by Dania Omari. It depicts a Palestinian man on a boat pushing himself forward through a swirling tide that is superimposed over the landscape, but he remains steadfast. This charity anthology has raised money for the Palestine Red Crescent Society. I organized, edited, and wrote a short story for it.

Hi #portfolioday, I'm David! I'm a writer & editor! Currently looking for comics writing work (licensed or original--I've got pitches, webcomics okay, NSFW okay) and long-term employment in editorial or a related gig! Hire me!

The A cover to Transformers Wreckers: Tread & Circuits by Jack Lawrence and Candice Han depicting the "IDW2" version of the Wreckers. They're showing off for the cameras. Clockwise: Thunderclash, Ricochet, Minerva, Circuit, Aileron, and Hot Shot. One of several Transformers projects I wrote. I also edited the entire line of Transformers comics for several years.

The cover to the Eisner-Award Winning Godzilla 70th Anniversary book, by E.J. Su who also has a fantastic story inside. Godzilla is destroying a town and chomping on a train. In the background, a silhouette of light in the destruction makes a giant 70. A comic I co-edited with Jake Williams at IDW (and one story edited by Jamie S. Rich). I was the Godzilla editor for a bit working on other titles as well.

The cover to Power Rangers Prime #5 (which makes the Pink Ranger look more purple than he really is). Depicting the Prime team. Clockwise from top: Red, Yellow, Black, Pink, and Blue! Art by Dan Mora. I am also the former Rangers editor at BOOM! Studios.

The cover to the Sonic the Hedgehog 2022 Free Comic Book Day special. Art by Adam Bryce Thomas featuring Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails. I was the editor on Sonic at IDW from 2018-2023, as well as writing some additional materials for the book, including a recap back-up story in this very issue!

So excited to be a small part of this & to see the franchise take on new life from the amazing @hannahrosemay.bsky.social, Miriana Puglia, @dearbhlala.bsky.social & @heatherantos.bsky.social 🩸

Look for it FEBRUARY 2026

Cover for “SMILE: For the Camera” featuring a woman’s face on a black background. Her eyes are wide, mascara running down her cheeks. And in her hand, a pair of bloodied sewing scissors. Within their reflection, the unsettling SMILE.
