broken the internet!

I did something silly today. I started fiddling with my website and now it's fragged, no idea how to fix it. I'm trying to sort it out but I'll be honest with you... I think computers work on magic!

If i can get things sorted I will go back to posting on the wordpress blog but until then I'm back on good old blogger.

SAVE ME SUPERMAN! SAVE ME!

Landed on the Homeworld

Good news everyone! my typing ability has scored me a new gig, I'm now a writer for The Home World which is a pretty big score for me seen as I have never really written anything other than fiction or papers for school/college/university

Just thought I would share my excitement and sheer terror with you all. There is a link at the top of the post to the website and one here that is directly to my post. I hope you all dig it, I hope you dig the site and become regulars, please feel free to comment on posts 'cause lets face it who doesn't enjoy a good bit of banter with other geeks via the internet?

Issue two hits the stands!!! or rather hits the blog!!!

Well it's finally done, Just finished Gaslamp issue #2

I always planned this to be a short story (two parts) I wanted to kick off the series quickly and I think it's not only bolted out of the gates but exploded!

hope you all dig it, I wish I had more time to do this but unfortunately my need to play bills is greater than doing something I love so here's hoping you see issue #3 before the end of the world in 2010!

Gaslamp #2

Immortal Weapons & Wounds

I had a bit on an Iron Fist itch today so I thought that I would put pen to paper (well finger to key) and see what came out.

It's a subdued, subtle Iron Fist story which I didn't expect to write I thought my need for some Danny Rand would lead to a kung fu epic so coming up with a character piece was a nice and rewarding change.

sure I will do a kick ass Iron fist tale at some point though

Enjoy!

Gaslamp: Issue #1

Just finished working on issue #1 of my new project one of my new projects. It's an adventure book featuring the Gaslamp brothers Erique and Gerome who run the Gaslamp creature & Apparition eradication service, essentially they are monster hunters who travel the globe fighting not only the things that go bump in the night but also the ones who go bump in the light as well.

My aim is to make it a fun, exciting adventure though a new old world, the comic is set during the industrial revolution but viewed though the goggles of steam punk. There will be more info later but for now I will leave you with issue one.

Enjoy...

Gaslamp Issue #1

Working those cogs!

Wow... been a while since I posted here. hasn't been a One Page Comic for a while, naughty me! I have been working however. I've had a couple of new ideas this past week and by new ideas I mean new projects not just ideas for Honor Bound.

Feels pretty good, having ideas flowing again. I've never been what you would call prolific when it comes to being the ideas man, I'me usually the guy who sits worrying about one concept he had a year ago while everyone around him has been churning something new out each month/week/day...

Don't want to go into too much detail at the minute as to what I've got cooking because there isn't really anything to show at the minute but one is a quasi-autobiographical piece and the other is an adventure with monsters!

Oh before I forget there is a treatment up from ALMTalkies for the Girl in the Red Dress music video that I contributed too. you can hit it up here more details as soon as there is some!

One Page Comic: Daredevil

Another one pager thanks to the guys from thought balloons for the idea, I'd love to tackle DD but never felt comfortable writing characters I love and I mean really love.

Mein Gott! Nightcrawler page!

Was given Nightcrawler this week, to be honest I was and still am a little aprehenssive about working on characters I have and affinity for but Nightcrawler is what I was given so I thought "Have at 'em"

here we go, Nightcrawler!

Oh I must put out there I guess this is in current continuity so for those of you who know... you'll get it, everyone else... not so much

Re-work

I spent last night re-formatting issue one of the comic, adding panels and cutting where needed. Issue one turned out to be a bit of a beast! seems I got a little carried away with it.

Spent at least four hours today re-formatting issues two and three and It would seem I hadn't done enough for those so have had to add and re-do some parts.

here is the result of my evening. I'm pretty amazed by this because I was in an awful mood and listening to music I shouldn't listen to when I'm in a funk so that fact that I got this done is amazing really!

Honor Bound Issue #1 the Power Inside Us

Man-thing v1.1

I wasn't really happy with my previous Man-thing page so I have attempted to re-work it. I'm still not sure if I'm happy with this one, I'll wait a few days and let it sit before I read it again but here it is for you to try out.

One Page Comic Man-Thing v1.1

One page of Man-thing

So this weeks one pager was a bit of a curve ball. Here is what I came up with for possibly my favourite member of the current Thunderbolts team Man-thing

The best thing about this is that I am now one step closer to my giant sized Man-thing!

This is just a first draft, I plan on coming back and tweeking it if not out right re-writing it.

Enjoy!

The Hood

Week two of my ongoing writing exercise. This weeks one page comic features the Marvel comics villain The Hood! If you don't know who he is you can read up on him here there is also a speaking part for long time Spidey villain The Shocker too! Just some of the crazy fun I have sat behind my computer!

6! its the hellish number!

i finished issue 6 of the comic today... took some doing, I re-wrote it (before I had finished it which is something I never do!) a couple of times because I didn't like where it was going.

It is now completed however and about damn time cause I haven't worked on it for a few days... fell pretty bad about that. Gonna let it sit for a while then move on to 7.

Want to have two full stories before I start looking for artists

One page is all it takes

Time for a change, not much of  change but there will be in the future.

Basically, I am trying something new. Its a weekly writing project that I am undertaking, I doubt anything will come of it other than it will give me something to write (cause practice makes perfect) and will give me a break from the comic or whatever ongoing project I'm working on. I have taken the idea from the guys over at Thoughtballoons (who were nice enough to let me post stuff there but I'd feel guilty if I used their blog for my own means so I'll do most of my work here)

Each week they choose a new character and have seven days to write a one paged comic, it can only be one page (that is completed comic not script, just look at anything Alan Moore has ever done and you'll know what I mean) I won't be picking the characters myself, I'm asking friends to throw up suggestions each week, and this is the first.

One page, two Batgirls, three stars (ok that might be over selling it)

Catwoman: Fanimation second draft

I added some things to the previous version, picked up a few misspellings and grammatical Frak ups and hopefully changed it for the better... I feel inspired after Listening to the latest Bendis Tapes from everyones favourite podcaster John Siuntres

Catwoman #3.2 Catwoman Animated Second Draft

Catwoman: Fanimation

Okay here we are again. Had another go at writing for the animated short planned as part of the Catwoman Summer Project

This one is completely different from the last the only thing that remains is that Catwoman gets shot by Deadshot and that's about it. I was a little disappointed not to get to use Dick as Batman but hey ho you gotta keep going, and I did!

As always feedback is welcomed and appreciated (as long as its constructive)

Enjoy!

Catwoman #3.1 Catwoman Animated

The Power Inside Us!

I thought I should have something up here about the comic, Its been all Catwoman and her summer of love over at Amber's facebook page recently I haven't posted anything other than the odd tweet about the comic. I just want to state that the comic is coming along fine and it was finished (in my quickest turn around to date) if you ignore the couple of days I spent working on Catwoman stuff it only took me may three days to write issue 4 which for me is pretty amazing!

Issue 4 is the end of the first arc and I plan on introducing more characters in the second story. some of whom were teased in issues 2 and 4.

Just wanted to get some news out there about the comic and remind everyone that I don't want to be a till slave my whole life.

I Heart Comics! (I wonder if I can get a banner from Dark horse now?)

Catwoman: The Animated Series

Well maybe not but it is for a "fan-imation" (if that isn't already a word I'm calling dibs on it and you all owe me money when it becomes a real thing) being planned over on Facebook.

So here we are, my whack at an animated short based on the original treatment by Martin Lafrance

Catwoman #3 Catwoman Animated

Catwoman #2.3

Here it is, my latest attempt at Catwoman #2

I don't think I have anymore to give at this point.

Catwoman #2.3 Cat & the Lioness

Catwoman: Cat & the Lioness 2.2

I attempted a rewrite for the winning script for catwoman #2 and decided to re-work it. This is my re-write
