Long morning walks through Palmer Sqr

Abysmal Address is another comic in the works. Picture a scuba diver discussing life with an underwater abyss...

These are the first few panels of the shadow puppet comic, which will probably find itself as a mini soon enough. I will eventually color in the rest of the black background. I'm just lazy/busy with other projects...

Comics Art Battle 2/26/09 7pm

OK, it's Comics Art Battles time again. I always agree to do these things, despite my trembling stage fright, because they're so much fun: www.comixapocalypse.com/

This time the line up is:
Steve Krakow -- aka Plastic Crime Wave, Secret History of Chicago Music (Chicago Reader)
Aaron Renier -- Spiralbound (Top Shelf)
Nate Beaty -- Brain Fag Forever! (Microcosm)
Richard Lee -- fashion design (www.myspace.com/richardthebosslee)
Grant Reynolds -- (little ol' me)
(and tba)

Pistol Bazaar -- 1717 W. Chicago Ave., right up the street from Alcala's: http://www.yelp.com/biz/pistol-bazaar-chicago
Thurs. Feb. 26th -- the battle will start at 7pm.

They usually start on time (Ezra's a punctual kinda guy), and it's best to be at a good vantage point. See you there!

Here's the first page of my three page comic for Proximity magazine...

eat this do that

Here are some sketches for two comics I'm working on, both having to do with hand shadow puppetry...
