Status Quo Now at Bergen Street Comics

Copies of Status Quo Ante Bellum are now available at Bergen Street Comics in Brooklyn--thanks Tucker! This is one of my favorite comic book shops, it's very inviting and the folks there are kind. And it looks pretty.

Also, I really love Ken Dahl's Monsters--such a great, great comic book, great story, great comic,  it's just plain awesome.

 
 

Status Quo Ante Bellum Available at Desert Island

You can now get a copy of my new comic at Desert Island in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. If you don't buy a copy it is a good place to go anyway, because Gabe is really nice and likes to answer questions and will let you put your paws on everything without making you feel like a broke loser. But you should probably buy something.

Here is a really good picture Jason Polan drew of Gabe for his project, Every Person in New York. Jason is the chairman of the Taco Bell Drawing Club, NYC Chapter.

For Drew

Status Quo Ante Bellum

Here are the inked final pages (for now)! There is much I would change if I had more time. I can't believe I did all the drawing in just 4 weeks. The planning, writing and research (the un-glamorous scribbly bits that don't make it onto the blog) took the same amount of time. I will probably be going back and refining some of the panels and printing new silkscreen cover variations for SPX and APE, depending on the print shop schedule.

Poster Drawing

My pal Drew Lyons is DJing at The Saint in New Orleans this Wednesday and asked me to make a flyer for the date. I'm running off to Philly this weekend and won't be finishing this till Monday, so here it is...have a happy weekend.

*Update*
This drawing is currently on view at Kings County Bar in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Quel Beast is curating shows there now, and the work is always very good. You can take the L train to Morgan Ave, it's just around the corner. They have good whiskey there, so I am told.

Making Piles of Something

I stink, my bed is covered in (clean) laundry, but I have a comic now. It's midnight and unless I lost a glass slipper today I had better get some rest.

Inking

Lots of leaves...and more leaves...and fabric folds...and little squiggly lines. More leaves.

Status Quo Ante Bellum Pencils

This is the 8 page comic I am creating as an introduction to a larger work. I hope to have the bigger book completed by next year. The pencils aren't totally finished but I really wanted to post an update since it's been awhile. I will have these at the Philly Alt Con this August 14th in Philadelphia. I will be at the Small Press Expo and Alternative Press Expo with these and some other tiny silkscreens and etchings. I see much adventure traveling in my future. Yee haw!
