Hunt of the Wolf

I did a comic story for someone. It took me a while to do (especially for only 6 pages) and after spending so much time working on it, I've grown to both love it and hate it. Because I'm not completely sure this work will ever see the light of day, I'm publishing it here without dialogue because I'm not a monster.

NYCC 2013

I ended up going to New York Comic Con this year.

I wanted to avoid it and I thought it would be a great opportunity to stop and think about what I wanted to do with my art. I mean, yeah, it's definitely going to be about publishing a comic, maybe a graphic novel, maybe a cartoon but what do I REALLY want, you know?

Anyway, I went and helped out Daniel Cooney at his Valentine table and it was good fun. Dan's a brilliant storyteller and an accomplished teacher and comic booker. He's been doing it since a little before senior year of college and he's still going strong.

I think I wanna be him when I grow up.

Anyway part deux, I also got to chill with the Florida Comix Scene, the gang from Cosmic Times and Creature, who were doing their thing with a fury! I got to hang at the Creature table for a couple of days doing sketch covers. First day was cool, the second was cool but I didn't sell any covers... that's how it goes, unfortunately, but I got to hang out with a brilliant bunch of guys (and girl) that, if I can get more organized, I would like to do some work for.

So the show was fun, funner than usual. I'm a little upset that I didn't get to hang with the Pronto Comics collective and I'm sad Grayhaven didn't make it. Next year, Gadget... next year!
