More work pictures.

Enjoy some pictures from where I work.


These are all clickable of course. If I'm not mistaken they all have notes on them too... because that's fun.

They'll need a crane..

Kid Robot knows what they're doing.

Take two.

So I've been coloring some more of Jon Morris' incredible stuff.
Here we have Mr. Morris' take on Marvel's Nova.
As you can see, I tried it two different ways.
Which do you prefer?

MERRY CHRISTMAS, BABY

Letters to God.

If you ask me, kids are a lot funnier than most adults.
If only they could do it on purpose.

I'm gonna shake you...

DETHKLOK!

An update on all things Dethklok from Mr. Explosion :

... I will answer 3 questions.

1. The DETHALBUM.
We went in the studio on Tuesday to begin laying it down. What to expect: Your favorite songs from the show in FULL LENGTH- No more 1 minute songs with a fade out but FULL LENGTH SONGS in all of their brutality- (with new sections you've never heard). There may be some new surprises on the CD (more to come on that). Also a couple key words in putting the CD together: Gene Hoglan (if you don't know him then do some research and begin buying his entire library). Release date: Summer 07. Yes you will have to wait. But it will be more than worth it. I will leak more info as I have it including track listing etc. . . So start looking fwd to the summer.

2. The DVD. also summer. Yes It's going to kick ass.

3. Is there going to be a second season. I can't tell you. But watch the end of tonight's episode and pay close attention to the last words uttered.

also people ask often about merch. we have it. Go online and find it. It's out there. and there will be much much more of that to come.

On a final note as the season ends I wanted to say you people kick ass, me and toki, skwisgaar, pickles, and murderface appreciate the hell out of you supporting us. THANK YOU. We're gonna see each other soon. Keep supporting all the metal bands out there and help us to make everything metal.

You may now go die,

But don't die too soon,

Cereal mascots as art.

Do-It-Yourself Cartoon Mural
This looks like it'd be fun to try.

What's it gonna be?

Quick post-it sketch of Superman.
A little different for me.
I rather like it.

Matt Damon is funny.

If you've heard a better McConaughey impression, I'd love to hear it also.

I have great ideas.

I'm full of great ideas by accident sometimes.
Maggie was telling me about this new commercial for Outback Steakhouse that has an Of Montreal song in it. This conversation walked me down the path to hilarity where I discovered a great album title, "Let's Drink Until We Can't Remember Our Faces".
Now that's an album title you can hang your hat on and leave it for a while.



Available now on ebay!
I don't mind telling you that I wish I owned these.

I like coloring.

If you've been around here any decent amount of time, I think you've know doubt taken notice of the fact that I like coloring things.
I don't think I'm particularly adept at it, but it's fun, so I keep at it.
Here's some things I've colored lately.


A picture of Robin by Joe Madureira that I colored and turned into an icon for live-jay.


A picture of Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) by Patrick Gleason I colored today at work.
Fun.

The mission is clear.

Barcode art.

These things jump out at you.

Carved crayons.
Amazing.

Let's go away for a while.

So here's where I tell you about what I've seen or read or heard lately that's been worth talking about...


Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny
I was upset with myself for not seeing this flick sooner, but now that I've seen it I'm even more upset. Pretty much non-stop goodness. I don't feel like I really need to say that much about it. It was of course very funny. Great performances. Great cameos. Songs I can't get out of my head. Some of the best rock 'n rolling I've seen or heard in some time.

Oh, and of course THE DEVIL!


Superman : Secret Identity
Kurt Busiek and Stuart Immonen deliver one of the best Superman stories of all time. Secret Identity tells the story of a teenager in the real world who happens to be named Clark Kent. As you can imagine he gets teased and bullied a lot at school, and year after year receives Superman toys, t-shirts, comics, you name it for his birthday. As you can also imagine, he hates the presents and he hates being named Clark Kent.
Then one night, everything changes.
The story is fun and funny and exciting and moving, all while still feeling very real.
Then there's the art.

Stuart Immonen's work here is absolutely incredible. Breathtaking at times. I'd be hard pressed to imagine him ever doing something that would replace this as his legacy to future generations. And that's something he should be pretty proud of, even though I'm sure he wouldn't like to hear that.

Kids are scared of Santa.

There's just no two ways about it.
Santa instills feelings of abject terror in toddlers.

Papercut art.

Pretty amazing stuff.

Thinking about life.

I think one of the scariest things about life is not that no one can tell us what's going to happen, it's that no one can tell us anything.
Everyday we wake up and even if we go through our regular routine and it all runs like clockwork we're still stuck in the middle of a mystery we may never solve.
All of us.
I was thinking about the trailer for that movie "The Invisible", and as often the case in those kinds of movies, eventually the protagonist meets someone who can explain what's going on to him. In this case, the old man explains to the kid that if he can solve the mystery of his own death he gets a chance to live again.
Sometimes the "hero" doesn't have the aid of an old man to spell it out, instead he stumbles across all the right clues or finds a book or some other convenient plot device that helps the movie have something resembling forward momentum.

We never get that.
Do we?

Maybe we do at some point and no one's told me.

PVP : The Animated Series

They're making an online cartoon of PVP.
Neat.

There's nothing anybody else can do.

Pretty neat.

Click on the picture for a bigger shot as well as some notes/explanations of the awesomeness.

Clapping to the point of confusion.

H. Jon Benjamin, you know him from Dr. Katz and Home Movies among other things, has posted a guest editorial/article/satirical story on Junkiness.
It is hilarious.
Go and read it.

Leftover from Halloween.

Are you inside or outside?

This is a Superman redesign by Jon Morris that I decided to color up in this style I'm finding myself very fond of lately.
Originally the "S" was just red and black, but that didn't look quite right to me, so I added the yellow back.
I wasn't sure which way looked better, but Dean Trippe agreed that it needed the yellow, so that's more than enough for me!

Do your best!

How about an old picture of me with Dr. Doom!

Step right up..

A quick sketch I did of a teenage Superman (whom we can no longer call Superboy due to pending litigation).
Anyone else watching that Legion of Superheroes cartoon?
I think it's outstanding.
I mean, there've only been five episodes so far, but all the pieces seem to be in place for greatness.

I want you to take a step back..

Do you have Adultitis?

i'm lucky to met you..

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Marvel's most Halloween appropriate hero, Ghost Rider!


A werewolf I drew at work and colored with high-lighters.


I couldn't decide which version I liked the best so you can pick your own favorite.

keep it to yourself...

The Vader Sessions.
Absolutely hilarious.

New York rendered completely in Lego.

30,000 Myspace friends..

Did you guys see this video of John Cena beating up K-Fed? It's funny.

it's thoughtful..

The X-Men Alphabet Primer

the waiting...

As Halloween creeps ever closer, it's time to start rolling out the monster drawings.
This is an old one of a teenage creature from the sea.
I'm not often fond of my own art, but I really like this picture for some reason.

all the information..

A Captain America that I drew on the back of an envelope I'm mailing to my mom.

Comics related...

Civil War #4: Worse Than You Thought
I know I've been a bit M.I.A. as of late, and I'm sure there probably aren't that many people reading this that are into comics (or at all), but if you're in that select circle, that link is worth a read. It made me laugh several times.

change the sheets...

Check out all the fun spoooooky places in and around Nashville.. or find all the spooky places in your own town.

Disneyland Souvenirs from the past.

like to hear...

Everyone needs to watch this awesome Wii video.

That's a link to a folder full of great Sloan songs.
A gift from me to you.

the same spirit..

A sketch of Scott Pilgrim by Nate Bellegarde that I inked and tightened up a little.
I love it a lot.
I think Nate is a god among men.
In my opinion, he's the next Frank Cho.
That's very high praise as far as I'm concerned.
I think this is one of, if not the best inking job I've ever done.

and we mustn't forget this...

i'm sure i can make it...

if you write or read or even think about it...

A quick sketch of Frankenstein's monster.
Getting geared up for Halloween since I'm looking much more forward to it than my birthday this weekend.

On the subject of anonymity..

The internet affords many a douchebag the comfort of anonymity.
Sad, pathetic, douchebaggy anonymity.

in a word to the wisdom tooth..

Holy socks!
I just found out Bryan Singer and I have the same birthday!
Not the same year, of course, but same day.
That enhappies me for some reason.

Oh, also, should any idiot that said Superman Returns hasn't been a financial success be reading this, as of September 10, the flick has made $179 MILLION in PROFIT.
I'll repeat that..
$179,000,000 PROFIT!

it would be wrong to ask you why...

If anyone is interested in my Amazon.com Birthday Wishlist, here it is.

I don't expect anyone to care, so don't think I'm pressing it upon you, I'm just putting the info out there should it ever be required.

a second job...

Holy socks!
Way too many great games coming out this week!
What am I to do?! My birthday is Sunday if anyone's interested..
- Mario Hoops : 3-on-3 (DS)
- Cooking Mama (DS)
- LEGO STAR WARS 2 (DS & GC)

Does anyone else remember this?

there goes tokyo..

So I just saw my first episode of the new Fantastic Four cartoon on CN.
All the familiar story trappings and dialogue of crappy American action cartoons wrapped in the slick (but generic) trappings of 21st century anime.
I'll still give it a few more episodes to see if it grows on me, but I'm very doubtful it'll get much better.
I'm sure their target audience of boys 10 and under will love it though.
I also wouldn't be surprised if halfway through the season Reed and the gang have to try to catch all of the highly collectible Skrull-e-mons and start fighting with magical cards instead of their superpowers.

because it's friday...

i was on the outside,
i was lookin' in
i was in a drop-D metal band
we called requiem
and i can't
relax
with my knees on the ground
and a stick up my back

somebody's throwing stuff..

Colored version of Venom sketch.
Feel free to click it for the bigger version.

A quick sketch of Venom that I liked a lot better before I inked it.


Also, if anyone has any ideas for a SEX MOTH logo, please let me know.

everything's heavy underground..

A scan of a rarely seen (or purchased) cassette copy of my former band's first EP.

So, I think I have to start a band called Sex Moth.

Whadda ya think, sirs?

So if anyone wants to get me either or both of these for my birthday, I'd be.. excited.




Here are the appropriate links : Emblem. Belt.
Seriously. Quite excited.

I cannot wait to leave.

A post-it Flash with quick, cheap colors.
I'll probably play around with it some more to make something slightly more interesting at some point.

thrown it all away..

An old sketch of The Thing I played around with in Photoshop for some reason.

Chung chung!

You also need to watch this..

I'm being robbed and drowned! At the same time!

PLASTIC-MAN!

You've got to watch this before it disappears from the internet again!
The picture quality is terrible compared to the version that was on and then taken off of YouTube, but at least you'll get to see it.
This pilot was made for a Plastic-Man series for Cartoon Network, but CN didn't pick it up... because they're stupid.

Quick Superman post-it sketch..

have a little fun..

So it's exactly one month until my birthday.
I didn't even realize that until someone else pointed it out to me.
That's all I've got on that.

I saw Brick last night, and I loved it. If you have even a passing interest in mysteries, crime-noir, sharp dialogue, great scores/soundtracks, brilliant camera-work, well directed movies, you'd be doing yourself a big favor by checking this flick out.

Here's a picture of April and I that I vectorized..
