I don’t draw many comics these days with my writing and producing schedule eating up so much of the day. However, I did have the wonderful opportunity to draw a short sequence in Keith Giffen’s and JM Dematteis’s brilliant and hilarious HERO SQUARED. The TPB is out now from BOOM and I highly recommend picking up a copy! Joe Abraham’s art in this book is awesome.

Giffen’s TAG tpb came out last week from BOOM. Some really nice dark, horrific stuff in that little gem. And I got a story in there as well…

“BONUS: Included in TPB form for the first time as an “extra” is Giffen’s and my “10” one-shot — ten innocent people become unwilling contestants in a game of death. Given 10 bullets and a gun, it’s kill or be killed as they’re forced to hunt the other 10 contestants! In the dark, horrific tradition of Battle Royale!”

So pick up TAG and get a little 10! And check out Andy Kuhn’s stunning artwork on our story. That guy is amazing.

This June, Baen Books will be also publishing The Spider in a new trade paperback, The Spider: Robot Titans of Gotham. To help promote this event, Argosy Communications, Inc., owner of The Spider, is reviving the most cherished premium of the Pulp era: The Spider Ring!

The ring was designed by Chris Kalb who coordinated its manufacturing as well.

I got mine! Look for them at San Diego Comic Con where I’ll be in Komikwerks booth #2103. And check out this gorgeous Steranko cover. Between the awesome Moonstone SPIDER CHRONICLES I got to be a part of and this one, it’s a good year to be a fan of THE SPIDER.

Hard to believe it’s been a year since the last one. Anyhow, do yourself a favor and visit the D-Day/WWII museum in New Orleans. If ya can’t get visit, head to their online gift shop and purchase a tax deductible gift for yerself from their online store and support the museum and New Orleans at the same time. It’s a win for everyone!
