Expansion Part Four! Turner's loose!

Ritual #1

2012-01-14T09:31:00.000-08:00

So that "Sneak Peak" I posted a few days ago was from the first issue of Ritual, my new comic being published by Revival House Press. Each issue will be a stand alone story, the first of which is called Real Life, and is a horror story of sorts. It's set in the present day, in a kind of average town, which is new for me.

...And don't worry, I know I've been talking about a lot of new projects recently, (and there are still some more to come soon) but Expansion Part 4 is still happening and on its way. I'll post up some images in the coming week.

Sneak Peak

2012-01-09T09:38:00.000-08:00

From a new 30(ish) page comic I'm working on.

Study Group Magazine

2011-12-01T23:55:00.001-08:00

I've got a comic in Study Group Magazine! The story connects obliquely to one of my Mome contributions, and not so obliquely to my short comic "Top Five". But more importantly, this anthology features comics by Trevor Alixopluos, Chris Cilla, Michael DeForge, David King, Aidan Kock, Jonny Negron, Jennifer Parks, Zack Soto, and Daria Tessler, plus an interview with Craig Thompson, a profile of Brecht Evans, and covers by Eleanor Davis!

If you live in New York you should absolutely go to the Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Fest this Saturday and pick up a copy. I really wish I could go, but I'm stuck out here on the west coast.

UPDATE: Study Group Magazine #1 is now available online for only $12! Click here to have a look.

Inking Exercise

2011-11-30T11:35:00.001-08:00

Sometimes when I have ideas to sift through I do exercises that end up taking too much time. I've been wanting to try inking over a contemporary superhero comics page, so last night I gave it a shot. The penciled page is by Paolo Rivera from Daredevil #1. Daredevil has been a fantastic example of what a superhero comic should be, and a lot of that is because of Rivera's art. As for my inking attempt, I think I did... okay. It was fun though!

Nobrow 6

2011-11-28T00:41:00.001-08:00

I've got a short comic in Nobrow 6: The Double, which is out now. There are a ton of great artists in this thing, including Tom Gauld, Kevin Heuizenga, and Michael DeForge. For details and to order from Nobrow, click here.

Spock

2011-11-04T00:00:00.000-07:00

Instead of working on the page I was supposed to be drawing, I painted a portrait of Spock.

2011-10-12T18:46:00.001-07:00

My double sided comic, Top Five / Sweet Dreams is now available through this site and on Etsy. Pick it up! Speaking of Etsy, I've added tons of new stuff to the Etsy store, like this original drawing I did for the Covered blog a while ago:

There's some new prints, original pages, paintings, and the cover to Expansion 3, among other great items. Check it out!

Expansion #3 Available!

2011-10-04T12:41:00.000-07:00

2011-09-28T22:07:00.000-07:00

Everybody! I'm going to be at the Alternative Press Expo this weekend, sharing a half table with Matt Sheean. We'll be at table 254A, with the brand new penultimate issue of Expansion! I'll also have some new prints, aside from my usual comic offerings. In addition to that, I'll be signing Mome 22's over at the Fantagraphics table: 12-1pm on both days. Seeya there!

Dylan Williams Benefit Auction

2011-08-30T11:48:00.000-07:00

Floating World is doing some good work to raise money for Dylan Williams' battle with cancer. I've got the above painting up for auction as a part of the benefit here. An 11x17 print will also be available through Floating World. You can check out other auction items here. And of course you should buy comics from Sparkplug. I recommend Lemon Styles by David King and Neverland by Dave Kiersh.

Newswire

2011-08-29T09:57:00.000-07:00

Two things:

1. I'll be at the San Francisco Zine Fest this weekend! It was a lot of fun last year, so I'm really looking forward to the 2011 edition. Plus its all caps FREE.

September 3 & 4, 2011

11am - 6pm

San Francisco County Fair Building

1199 9th Ave and Lincoln Way

in Golden Gate Park

2. Expansion has undergone some edits, and its become too big for one issue. Seriously, we can't staple that many pages together. A 28 page Part Three will debut at APE on October 1 & 2, and then PART FOUR will come in November!

Process

2011-08-19T23:37:00.000-07:00

I always like seeing other people's process creating comics, so I thought I'd share how Matt Sheean and I put an Expansion page together.

First, I write a "script", although it's almost an outline. It has dialogue and everything, but it's not very detailed. This way the story is more of a collaboration between myself and Matt. From there Matt creates thumbnails for the whole book. Here is his thumbnail for page 9 of Expansion Part 3:

After the thumbnails are finished we make revisions. The sequence that page 9 is a part of got shuffled around, so the layout changed. Matt starts working on the pencils, usually giving them to me in batches of 2-4 pages at a time as he finishes them. The pencils for page 9:

Matt keeps the pencils loose so that the finished image is also more collaborative. I get the page back and use the following tools:

Recently I've been using a Japanese brush pen that I don't know the name of. (This is a little different for me, I usually use the watercolor brush next to it) I use a 08 Micron for the panel borders, and the Staedtler for lettering. Page 9 doesn't have lettering... so we won't get into that. My inks, unedited:

Expansion has a flat grey tone for most of the book. After I finish inking the main page, I tape another piece of paper to it and use a light board to create the shapes that will be grey:

I scan the two parts in and tidy them up. I put the grey tone (which at this point is still solid black) on its own layer, set it to "Multiply", and then change the opacity to a grey tone. For page 9 it's a little darker because it takes place at night.

That's that! Here's the final page:

Roke in Color

2011-08-19T14:47:00.000-07:00

Why did I color this? I don't know.

Expansion Three in October

2011-08-13T00:39:00.000-07:00

Here's a page (minus the dialogue) from Expansion Part Three, which Matt Sheean and I are working on. It'll be done in time for APE, the first weekend of October! I'll be posting more images as work progresses.

Comic-Con!

2011-07-20T00:06:00.001-07:00

I'll have a new zine at Comic-Con this weekend. Full color! Very limited print run! It's two stories, one on each side, each with their own cover:

and

The new Top Five/Sweet Dreams comic will be at the Revival House and Koyama Press Table, Q-12 in the small press area.

I'll also be doing some signing at the Fantagraphics booth (#1718) for Mome 22. I'll have the new comic and some prints there as well. I'm signing from 4-5pm on Friday and 6-7pm on Saturday.

Some Projects

2011-06-06T10:56:00.000-07:00

I've been working on a couple of short comics for various anthologies. This is a page from one of those comics, where I'm trying to push myself stylistically. I can't tell if I pushed too hard, but it's fun to work outside my comfort zone a little.

Of course, Matt and I are also working on Expansion #3, (the final installment) which will be 57 pages! More than twice the length of #2.

Top Five

2011-05-20T10:14:00.001-07:00

I'll be reading a new comic, called Top Five, at The Silverlake Jubilee this Saturday at 9pm. At some point I should have a zine of this as well...

Comics Reading

2011-05-13T09:58:00.000-07:00

Silverlake Jubilee is about a week away, and I'm participating in a comics reading on Saturday the 21st with some great cartoonists: Robert Goodin, Keenan Marshall Keller, Levon Jihanian, Jed McGowan, Tom Neely, and Jen Wang.

I'll be reading a couple of comics that haven't yet been printed, and I might even have a new zine available.

Mome 22

2011-05-05T09:08:00.000-07:00

Here is the first page from one of two short comics I'll have in Mome 22, published by Fantagraphics. I can't believe I slipped into this last issue! It's kind of bittersweet...

Elephant / Prints

2011-04-27T16:44:00.000-07:00

I painted an elephant in gouache, and I don't know why. But an 8.5" x 11" print is now available in my Etsy shop. Also, if you haven't noticed, there are prints available from all my Secret Headquarters paintings in the shop as well.

Expansion Part Two

2011-04-14T22:16:00.001-07:00

Now available through this very website! Matt and I are pretty proud of this one. We'll also be at Stumptown this weekend, so you can buy it face to face if you live in the Portland area.

click to enlarge
I hesitate to show my inks next to Matt Sheean's original pencils, because I leave a lot out and change things around. He keeps it loose so I can do just that though, so I shouldn't feel bad. This is a page from our upcoming comic called Expansion. I have so much fun just inking. Doing pencil and layout work stresses me out.

I'm Still Doing Comics

2010-08-16T08:54:00.000-07:00

I haven't posted much on the comics I'm making right now, but I'm really excited for them. This is an image from "King Saul" a stand alone full color comic that will be done in time for A.P.E.

Collaboration

2010-07-07T10:28:00.001-07:00

Matt Sheean and I have been friends for six or so years now, and we've finally collaborated on a comics page. This is just an experiment to see how it would look if I inked Matt's pencils. We're planning to do a full stand alone story (like Utu) in time for A.P.E. It's going to be so much fun!

The Standard Alternate Cover

2010-07-03T11:24:00.001-07:00

Another commission:
It's an alternate cover for a comic written by Jay Sherer and drawn by Nathan Scheck

ROM #1 / Utu Page 2

2010-06-30T10:11:00.001-07:00

Here's another commission, this time for the cover of ROM Space Knight #1, originally drawn by Sal Buscema. This is the $50 level, by the way, but on July 9th it's going to be raised!

This is page two from my first comic, Utu. To see details of the page, and to see other original drawings for sale, go to my etsy page.

Zeppelin Stories / Alien Juicers

2010-06-25T00:03:00.000-07:00

First, one of the commissions from the Malachi Ward Pledge Drive:

Second, I added another original drawing to the etsy page:

Lastly, the commission prices are pretty low right now, but they're going to go up to something a little more respectable in two weeks (That's Friday July 9th) so if you want the best deal, act now!

A Malachi Ward Pledge Drive

2010-06-21T01:11:00.000-07:00

Funds at the Malachi Ward Complex are getting low, so I thought I might offer my services as an artist for hire. To make things easier I made three commission levels with some examples. So if you want a crazy drawing of something, I think I've got some pretty good deals.

The $100 Level
An 8.5x11 tight ink drawing on thick vellum paper. Like this, my version of the cover of Red Sonja #4:

The $75 Level
An 8.5x11 ink sketch on regular paper. Like this, a drawing of Nightcrawler:

The $20 Level
An 8.5x5.5 ink sketch on regular paper. Like this, a drawing of a scene from The Coen Brother's 2001 movie The Man Who Wasn't There:

I'm also putting up original drawings and pages at different prices over at my Etsy shop. Like this, the cover of Utu, my first comic, for only $100:

If you don't like using Etsy or Paypal, send me an email and we'll do something else. Also, if you want something more elaborate or different than the three levels I set up, send me an email. To do a commission just pick your level over on the sidebar! Thanks!

Smoke Signal #5

2010-06-16T19:07:00.000-07:00

I've got a comic in the fifth issue of Smoke Signal! I'm surrounded by incredible and superior artists such as Gabrielle Bell, Vanessa Davis, Tom Gauld, Lisa Hanawalt, Leah Hayes, Sam Henderson, Michael Kupperman, Tim Lane and Ben Marra. If you live in New York you can pick a copy up for free from Desert Island. If you live anywhere else you just go here and pay a measly $3 shipping for 32 newspaper pages of greatness.

Silverlake Jubilee

2010-05-19T19:19:00.000-07:00

The Silverlake Jubilee is happening this weekend (May 22) here in LA, and there are a few cool comics events scheduled. At 10:30 (that's in the a.m., folks) I'll be doing a comics "reading" at El Cid with Robert Goodin, Tom Neely, David King, Jesse Moynihan, and Ted Stearn. Throughout the day I'll have some comic books available for purchase in the Literary Village and I'll be doing a signing from 2-3. For a full schedule of the comics signings (which also include Joe Matt and Tim Hensley) click here.

Also, the panel above is from a new short comic called "Sweet Dreams" which I'll be reading at the El Cid along with another new one called "Samuel".

So stop by if you can!

Next Comic

2010-05-13T20:08:00.001-07:00

Right now I'm working on my next comic, River Rock. It's going to be a lot longer than my previous comics - about 150 pages. I'll be doing shorter comics to bring to conventions while I work on this one, so I won't drop off the earth completely. Also, in July I'll be posting a 15 page preview of River Rock on my redesigned website! So stay tuned...

This is one of two pieces that will be at Pony Club at the end of April.

Early Stages

Right now I'm furiously trying to finish "The Beasts of Kay-7" in time for Stumptown. I have about ten (full color) pages to go. In the midst of that project, I'm also planning the next one, which will be much longer (probably released in four 30ish-page increments). Above is a rough layout of the first three pages and a sketch of the main character. While working on the story and characters, and pretty much any of the preliminary stuff, I listen to a lot of music. I've developed a playlist I use that sort of fits the mood of the comic. It's set in the Mesolithic (pre-farming) and the music seems to reflect that in a way. It's hours of mostly ambient stuff, but I thought I'd include a sampling of some representative songs below.

1. The Microphones - (Something) Cont.
From The Glow, Pt. 2, 2001

2. Andrew Bird - Carrion Suite
From Useless Creatures, 2009

3. Camille - Vous
From Le fil, 2005

4. Old Time Relijun - Indestructible Life!
From Catharsis in Crisis, 2007

5. Tim Buckley - Dream Letter
From Happy Sad, 1969

6. Low - Violent Past
From Drums and Guns, 2007

Foamed!

I'll post some stuff unrelated to this project soon, but for now, more panels from "The Beasts of Kay-7"

Some Panels

A present for my friend Paul Hoppe.

The Scout

2010-01-08T10:21:00.001-08:00

Some alternate images I did for The Scout awhile back. The only way you can read The Scout is to order the fantastic anthology Hive 3 right here! It's got loads of cool stuff in it.

New Project

2009-11-29T20:11:00.000-08:00

Page six from the new project I'm working on. I'm trying out a more involved method of coloring. The comic is a science fiction/adventure story and I wanted the coloring to be more representative than what I usually do. I'm still not totally sure about it (although I feel pretty good). Thoughts?

News!

2009-11-27T10:25:00.000-08:00

I've got two bits of cool information:
First, my band has a blog that has been around for a little while, but is now offering lots of really cool content with updates at least once a week. You can listen to the new e.p. for free whenever you go, there are objectively awesome mixes of music we like, and artwork by guest artists illustrating our lyrics. The first one is by the incredible Lindsay Eller.

Here is the one I did:
So go to the website now and follow or add to your RSS feed or whatever.

Secondly, I have a new, exclusive 16 page comic in the awesome anthology Hive 3, and it's available right now! Go buy it! It's published by Grimalkin Press and features stories by Matt Kindt (Super Spy, 2 Sisters), J.W. Cotter (Skyscrapers Of The Midwest), Hawk Krall, and many more!

140 pages of awesomeness for only $10?! Check it out!

Colorized

This is a panel from Utu that I colored for the back of a promotional postcard.

Alternate Colors

2009-11-10T14:28:00.000-08:00

I was cleaning up my hard drive and found a different version of the Devil Dinosaur cover I did for the Covered blog a few months back.
See the version I chose over this one, plus Kirby's original here.

APE Report

2009-10-20T23:27:00.000-07:00

Ape was so much fun! I sold a decent amount of comics, and a lot of cool people came by the table, including some of my favorite cartoonists.

APEward Bound

2009-10-08T23:52:00.001-07:00

I'm going to be at the Alternative Press Expo next weekend! I'll be selling some cool stuff, like my new comic Utu. I'll also have some original artwork, including this drawing based on a painting of Samson killing the lion by Cranach.

Tour EP Artwork

2009-10-04T09:53:00.000-07:00

For my band. Our first tour! And then a new full length album shortly after.
