Earlier this year I provided the lettering and colors for an exciting new book from Tree Frog Comics: Starlex! The brainchild of creator/writer Dan Barnes, Starlex tells the tale of Alexis Starling, a Photography and Art student at Los Angeles University, and the fateful evening when she was up near the Hollywood sign taking pictures for her portfolio of a meteorite shower! She snapped away as one of the shooting stars came ever closer, and "...the star fell faster and faster, she gazed up at it frozen, she could not move. Faster and faster the star fell, closer and closer until... silence. For that split second there was nothing. Time stood still. As the star fused with her body they became one. She fell to the ground, her body sparkling like the night sky above...” She absorbed the power of the star and became Starlex!
The fantastic art was provided by up-and-coming artist Dody Eka! Dody's pencils were so clean that I did the color work directly on his penciled pages! Issue 0 also features a great cover by Melike Acar!
Here we share a couple of pages from Starlex as well as a special pin-up by yours truly! Starlex is available now from IndyPlanet!
