Writer. Artist. Colorist. Making new Solomon Kane adventures and Savage Sword of Conan stories for Heroic Signature & Titan Comics!
Drawn hundreds of comics for 'the other guys'.
Pinned
Writing, drawing, and coloring the adventures of Solomon Kane -- living Sword of Vengeance who wanders a fantastical 16th century.
I am also writing stories for The Savage Sword of Conan magazine, published by Heroic and Titan comics.
I love making these stories.
Thank you for looking.
It's insane that they did this. In Cabaret, it's sung when the Nazis are finally in power. The last line, on Broadway and in the movie, is an antisemitic smear performed to appease the Nazis.
They changed the line for the parade but it's a dark, bitter, ugly scene in its original context.
“It’s Thanksgiving morning. We need to start our Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade off with just the right family tone.”

“So, a number from CABARET?”

“I don’t know what that is, but sounds fun. DO IT!”

Latest read, The Book of the Five Rings (1645) by Miyamoto Musashi; the sword-saint of Japan illuminates on the attitudes of swordsmanship.
Pleasantly surprising is how identifiable and applicable this work is to how we perform other arts, even making comics :)

When what you have studied leaves your mind, and practice disappears, then you accomplish the techniques easily without inhibition. Use what you have learned without your mind preoccupied by what you have learned.
When you are innocent, but know, this is the spirit of perfecting.
-- Miyamoto Musashi

Drew a sketch yesterday for a kid in the hospital who lost his fingers.
It seems small, not enough, but my son-in-law, a nurse, says the patients' spirits are lifted (I did another for a patient who lost his leg last year).

Artists-- it's the best reward you'll ever get for your work.

Justice encourages achievement. So long as the world is relatively in order, achievement (and the future) matters.

Injustice discourages achievement.

This is why overly-corrupt nations (there is no such thing as zero corruption) go into decline. Its youth doubts the value of achievement.

Something depressing about a very friendly bot.

Wrightson's illustrations in this are the pinnacle of his art and I'm happy it's reprinted again.
I think he did work here that people will enjoy for generations.
A Beardsley, Clarke, or Neill for his time.
This Bernie Wrightson-illustrated edition of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s Frankenstein is all that. 🔥👍🏼

Latest read, Spoon River Anthology (1915) by Edgar Lee Masters; those buried in Spoon River, Illinois each have a story to tell. And, through these free verses, various aspects of life are explored.
This was the first book of poetry I ever bought-- and it was a great choice. Still wonderful

Latest read (audio), Uprooted (2015) by Naomi Novik; a village girl, Agniezska, is chosen by the solitary wizard, the Dragon, to be his apprentice--and together they battle a magic-corrupted monarchy.
A pleasant mainstream high fantasy.

You understand more about men and women, their wants and needs, through the fantasies they write.

Hey, you have a sense of humor.
Laird chose wisely.

On the other hand, if you get death threats over how you handled a comic character, you must have Seriously fucked that story up.

I'm kidding.

Latest read, Zuleika Dobson (1911) by Max Beerbohm; lampoons class, honor, and youthful passion as Zuleika, the wayward granddaughter of a warden at Oxford, elicits a vow from the undergraduates (and a Duke) that they will not live without her love. A kind of screwball comedy for academia.
