Frankenstein's Night Out!
The Monster of Frankenstein just can't have a pleasant night on the town; it's like he just attracts trouble no matter where he goes or who he's with!
Coming in 2012 from Sequential Pulp/Dark Horse Comics.

Samurai Sam!
Last year, writer Michael Leal and I teamed-up on a fun 1-page project called Samurai Sam! This was slated for a comics anthology of 1 pagers that has unfortunately, since been shelved by the publishers.
Michael and I worked on this old school "Marvel-style" where we discussed the idea and came up with a general concept: a satire on the old "Hostess" cupcake ads which appeared in comics back in the 70s. So I went about drawing it, and thought I would do it in a somewhat "manga" style for fun; Michael then did the captions and dialogue based on the artwork. I enjoy working in this fashion since to me, it makes the effort truly collaborative!
And here, for your viewing pleasure is Samurai Sam in "A Demon for Cake!"

Tara the Jungle Girl!
A few years back I had the pleasure of writing and drawing an adventure of the classic jungle heroine from the 1940s: Tara, for AC Comics' Good Girl Art Quarterly #18. The Tara story will be reprinted in the trade paperback FemForce Rarities #1, available in September.
"Star Gem" was actually a re-write of an unpublished story I had done years before called "Eye of the Beholder" featuring a male protagonist named Grimace, and it was fairly easy to adapt the original story to suit Tara. Here are a few of the Tara story pages followed by the original version.
