April 4, 2012 8:46 pm Heh. I went to Plymouth State College as a Freshman there. I don't remember any monsters running around tho. This guy's work is really exceptional.

March 22, 2012 4:11 am Thanks, Josh. :) You too!

March 21, 2012 8:50 pm I agree with everything you said up there tenfold. I feel the same way about iFanboy and what they provide as far as content here on the site. I'm stupidly broke all the time with raising two kids on my own and working forty hours for a very small wage, so it's hard to buy the books I want to keep up on everything as well as spend money on art supplies to work on my own book. All that saying, I totally appreciate being able to keep up on all the latest and still feel like I'm involved in comics, and it's actually helped me start buying again and really focusing on the books I would enjoy based on the reviews and conversations that take place here and on other sites like Wordballoon and Eleven O'clock Comics. I think another great thing about comics now is that it's growing SO big in the public consciousness, but, still feels small and connected. Mark Silvestri said something to that effect on the last video podcast and how there's a connectivity to what the industry has that no other media has. Go on film sites like AICN and you get really bogged down with the negativity, and here, a comics site, everyone is usually very positive and polite. The fact that more people are jumping in and that connectivity can still exist is amazing. I work with indie creators and know a few professionals and what's really cool is that everyone is SOOO supportive of what you're doing. It's almost (and I say this with no knowledge of ever being in the forces) like being army buddies, or something. Pros love self publishing guys cause they were there once, and they know the excitement to come. Everybody isn't having the same experiences, granted, but most people there, had worked, or are working hard in the craft they love, so the camaraderie is there. It's really remarkable. Let's hope we can keep the momentum going!

March 20, 2012 7:39 pm Oh, and I was sold as soon as I saw that Heavy Liquid piece. Man!

March 20, 2012 7:39 pm Wwwwow! I've seen a few pieces from this chap, but, seeing this example of his talent means I'll be hunting down more of his work. Love the energy and design. Very cool. Thanks for bringing his name to my attention guys!

March 20, 2012 7:32 pm City of Glass is mesmerizing, both in art and in story. The themes of language, identity, persona, and personal trappings play heavily in this book and it's all the richer for it. Very highly recommended.

March 20, 2012 7:27 pm haha...These are great!

March 6, 2012 10:44 am Looks pretty good. I live in Portland, actually, not far from where the opening scene takes place, coincidentally enough. The artist nailed the look of that section of Broadway. Regardless, it reads well, and I'll be picking it up to see what all the hub-bub is.

March 2, 2012 10:29 am Damn. Evan's work is always so distilled and beautiful. I've been a huge fan of his cartooning, but, that Chinatown drawing is sublime!

March 2, 2012 10:11 am The fact that Morrison likes Wild Wild West gives me some pause. This however won't detract me from keeping an eye out for this property. It must be cool writing a screenplay you KNOW will most likely be turned into a film, instead of feeling like you are playing the lottery like so many out there. Good for him.
