some more recent commissions and some even cooler news...

this time the news first...

the Society of Illustrators has chosen one of my pieces from Spectrum to hang in their gallery for an upcoming show highlighting the Spectrum annual.

the piece of mine they chose was the perennial favourite of mums everywhere "bad panda".


i'm super excited about this. the show runs from september 1st to october 17th at the society's gallery. monique and i will be there for the official opening on the 11th of september (i know...).
more about the event here. i'd love to see some members of the Fowler Army there.

i'll also be at the montreal comic con september 19-20. i don't think i'm on the site yet, but i'll be there.

and now the commissions...


dat wascally wolverine....

some recent commissions, and some cool news...

first the commissions...
president martin van buren: the original wolverine...


an introspective thor...


supes giving bats a boost. this last one isn't really a commission (don't worry, dave), but more something i had to get out of my system before attacking said commission.

now the news: as has finally been reported i'll be appearing in disney press' the prince of persia gn. it's a tie-in to the new movie and it'll be on sale i april(?). it's looking like its going to be a quality book and i'm having a lot of fun with it. mostly though, i'm just happy to finally be able to talk about it... even though i can't actually say anything about it.... or show any images from it...

.... crap

messing about....

while i've been waiting for my new mystery gig to start up in earnest, i've had a bit of a chance to sit down and do some drawing/painting just for the sake of drawing/painting.

i was going to hold one of these back for a longer focused posting about orphaned jobs that can't be done now, but... who are we kidding?

enjoy...






some of =you= might like to note that the three of these were done on cartiera magnani's annigoni paper...

after mysterius...

i delivered the last issue of mysterius a couple of weeks ago... i kind of don't know how i feel about it. (being done i mean, the issue rocks!) i'm also having a bit of trouble figuring out what the hell to do with myself now.

luckily, though, it turns out unemployment feels a lot like work.

well... fun work.

also...

mysterius #6...

... do i really need to tell you to order this book?

really?


a nutty big shout out to aaron and evie and aaron's pants at the awesomed by comics podcast for choosing us for panel and book of the week. here's the unwhatevered version of of the painting from said panel...

thanks kids. now go out and threaten your lcs manager with bodily harm if he/she doesn't get those numbers up mysterius...

monroe lives again...

...for now.

we just managed to squeek him into #500.

mysterius #5....

i was planning on writing a big nycc/MAD piece filled with lots of pictures and hilarious snark.

but i'm busy.

order #5. that is an order.

ps... speaking of nycc, here's an podcast/interview mr. parker and i did with tucker stone for comixology on the floor of the show... i think we may have been feeling a bit honest that day.
