“…a razor cutting style that energizes the subject matter, infusing WW2 era characters with a present day energy. Great stuff!” – DARICK ROBERTSON, artist and co-creator of Transmetropolitan and The Boys.
“From the muddy battlefields of France to the haunted ruins of modern-day, Chechnya, “Grunts”, pulls no punches when dealing with the hardcore violence of war. Perfectly marrying action, fantasy, horror and sc-fi into one wonderfully, dark and very original package with superb art (it’s good to see an M1 Garand, actually looking like an M1 Garand), and flawless writing, “Grunts” is like a bayonet to the gut, but one that leaves a smile on your face and salivating for the next attack.” – BILLY TUCCI, creator of SHI and writer/artist on Sgt. Rock
Arizona Cactus League MLB Spring Training
Mar 29th
It’s a bummer that Spring Training is almost over. I tried to hit every Cactus League stadium this year but fell a couple short. That being said, I’m really looking forward to the start of regular season! Last year for the regular season I made it to the Padres, Angels, Dodgers, and Diamondbacks stadiums so I’m gonna see if I can top that this year! Who’s ready?

Mar 20th
Fantastic Four: Worlds Greatest Comics Magazine hardcover on the way! I drew one of the stories and there’s a lot of great art from a host of talented guys in here. This project was a lot of fun to work on despite having to do it in the evening when I got home from designing on the Silver Surfer animated series. I miss being able to go days without sleep…versus now where I look for every opportunity to squeeze in a nap!
