FINALLY- the truth can be told...
During the recent FACA battle for the West Division championship...I was fighting as none other than...
Baron Von WhoopAss!
Alas, the good Baron was laid to rest...(not sure if that term really applies for the Baron) by the UNSTOPPABLE "Cannon Father"!

Raising my head from the drawing table for a sec...
During the wee hours, I'm currently working on my next story. It's to be published in a top secret anthology that I can't name yet... Soon, I think...;)
Some thoughts on the heroine of the tale:
And some on her dance partners:

Friend and filmmaker Seth Worley is at it again.
Don't know how much I can spill about it, but I was asked to craft a prop for his latest film. It's supposed to resemble a page torn from an old book on Tennessee ghost lore....
The legendary....GHOST REX...!
After I turned that in, Seth wanted to know if I had done any comic book covers that he could use to populate the kid's tent.
I'm sending him my TrogHammer comic ...and while rooting around I found this guy in a dark dank corner of the archives. I dusted him off and brought him out into the light...
Say hello to Kid Frankenstein!
You can follow Seth's exploits more closely:
And I'm still hangin out over

This guy is the star of a kids focused story I was thinking about not long ago.
He's much more of a pacifist than the rest of his family, likes hanging out with his woodland friends, and munching on the occasional camper's cooked marshmallow.
S'mores anyone?

The "Pain Brothers" need your help!
That's right...I'm back for more punishment in Fist-A-Cuffs 2!
The mighty TrogHammer gave it the ol' college try...but was sacked last time around.
Don't cry for T.H. though...always remember the words of Oscar Goldman; "We CAN rebuild him."
While T.H. recuperates, he had us put in a call to his cousin Floyd Ragnarokker to fill his sandals for the next FAC tournament.
Allow me to introduce THE RAGNAROKKER!
This time around it's a tag team match. And Ragnarokker (Floyd to friends and family only) has the good fortune of teaming up with his old friend Kaptain Knife Kafka! (as drawn by my friend David Rubin)
They're fighting under the moniker of "The PAIN BROTHERS".
Be sure and head over to Sam Hiti's Fist-A-Cuffs blog for all the gory fun...
Right now though...,
We need your HELP! (which translates to votes!) If we win this match (and it's gonna be close)...we go on to the CHAMPIONSHIP!
Also, David and I thought it might be fun for each of us to take a swing at coloring the duo...
So Here's my take on our Four Armed Fist-A-Cuffers!
Please visit David's blog to see his version, and ALL the other fantastic work that he's posting there!
Thanks again for your support, we're gonna need it! :D
P.S. One more thing:

Finished. ...just in time for the party. Whew.
Basically I have a horizontal two sided card, and the individual Godz/MechaGodz mini-standees for all the party tables.
If you are interested, I included larger printable images of the two side card/ and the mini-standees for your own downloadable enjoyment back at my website.
You know...if you want to throw your own Godzilla themed birthday bowling party!

Well, honestly that didn't take too much effort for her.
But, I figure whoever was the boss of what's left of that robot there, well, he's got more where that came from....
He was just seeing what our gal from Krypton 2 was capable of.
Now I don't know about you, but I'm bettin on P.G.!

My Son's birthday is coming up, and we are having his party at a bowling alley...AND he would like it to be Godzilla themed. :) So, I made this invite to send out to his friends.
Now, as far as I know...this is the only Godzilla bowling themed birthday invitation around.
If you find some...be sure and let me know. In the meantime, If you like this, and want to use it yourself, I made a blank version that you can print out over at my blog.
Next up, I'm going to try and make some table stands, etc... to help theme out the party!

America's first REAL superhero.
Originally done for a Drawergeeks E topic... I pulled him out and dusted him off for one over at SFG.

I'm expecting a phone call from the Memphis lawyers even now...

Hey Mike can you come over and autograph it for me? :)
You know, it was just an honor to be competing with the other wonderful artists that were nominated.
I want to thank everyone at SFG, my manager, Starbucks and Full Throttle...and finally. Sniff...
I couldn't have done this without the support of Jeff Andrews. Thanks Jeff, I'm dedicating this award to you.
(It's still mine though.)

I love your typography and design sense. How does one acquire a fine t-shirt such as that?
Thanks Jim...
To get one you'd have to go back in time to when Big Idea had an animation studio in Chicago, and employed 150 or so animators. It was a t-shirt for the wrap party/premiere... a few moons ago.
great work.
Paul, I just love all three of these! really well composed!
