These were like priceless rare artifacts before the internet.

Every time I do this, then hear the person they hired instead of me, I always think they upgraded. Like, I'm surprised they came to me first if they could've had this other talent all along. Probably something a therapist could really go to town on.

Well, I passed on a huge WFH gig to stay on target with my creator-owned stuff today. I have abysmal career instincts, but think I made the right call this time.

Still looking for work. Covers. Sequentials. Book covers. Album covers. Posters. Whatever.

I.
Am.
Broke.

Anyway...

I worked on #DoctorWho comics, #RickandMorty, #Ghostbusters, #AssassinsCreed, and more. I got legit critical acclaim and have become a fan fave artist...

...and I'm super unemployed.

So. Employ me.

Check out what can be accomplished by changing the size of the protagonist's figure throughout the page. Makes time changes less dependent on panel borders, creates depth that defies the flat plane of the page, & makes a talking heads page into a journey. Superb acting, also. Garcia-Lopez & Janson.

Between A Quiet Place and G.I. Joe: Silent Missions, 2025 has been a year of intense wordless storytelling for me. I couldn't be happier. Dialogue is for cowards!

You know us country boys had to set it in the Midwest. A little river town tears itself apart awaiting the inevitable arrival of the mysterious creatures.

He was on fire in that era. Some pun intended.

Nothing rhymes with Loughridge, not even itself!

I *think* something I've been developing for a long time will be announced tomorrow. My last WFH gig for a while, but something to which I feel very attached.

I wish I knew. Fun fact about Wyllis Cooper. He was likely noodling out his best Quiet, Please/Lights Out scripts driving through Iowa from his weekend job at WHO back to Chicago.
