One of my favourite places I've visited is the Avebury circle in England. It's more spread out than Stonehenge so you can wander and get up close. I think I can draw a line between the experience and what became the stone monsters in SKAB.

An assortment of panels I'm fond of from SKAB Chapter 2.

SKAB Chapter 2 available now for preorder on my website! I'll also be tabling at TCAF again this year and I'll have copies available there.

For every pre-order I'll be including a 6x9 print!

For the first chapter I did a similar size print of Kay looking out in the ruined tower so I wanted to continue the tradition with Mo this time.

Mo is a shorts and sandals type of guy…even during the apocalypse.

For the release of SKAB Chapter 2 I've done an alternate cover!

The story of SKAB takes place over two timelines so with the second cover I decide to expand on this key moment from the story's past.

A look at a page from chapter 2 as I organize things for scanning #comicart #indiecomics

Front and back of this page. At some point I did a redraw on the reverse side to adjust this panel. Still like the pencilling

Still having fun with this character
