Jumping spider, man (or Spidey hop)
In between working on pages I've been flipping through a bunch of old Steve Ditko issues of Spider-Man lately.
Ditko did such a great job of making Spider-Man, even though he's a hero, look sort of awkward in his costume. Big heroic, cool poses can be cool... but it has to be right for the character. Peter Parker being the nerd that he is/was it only makes sense that he wouldn't necessarily be the most graceful crime fighter. At least in the old Silver Age stuff that I've been looking at.
So yeah, this sketch was my attempt at that sort of quirky posed, yet still doing his superhero spiel, Spidey.
Oh, and I posted a new sketch of Asterix and Obelix over on the Comic Twart blog yesterday. Check it out here.

I'll Be Back
Just wanted to pop in to let you all know that I haven't given up on this blog. I've just been really, really busy with work and our cross-country move to Portland, Oregon. (I'm actually typing this blog post from Utah).
Things should calm down considerably for me in the next few weeks though so expect more regular posting soon.
For those of you that have asked, I haven't given up on the alphabet sketches. They'll be making a return to the blog as well just as soon as I have the time to devote to them.
Thanks for sticking with me.

Heroes Con Update - Now with More Comic Twarty Goodness!
Just a reminder I will be at Heroes Con this weekend in Artist's Alley at table 304! I'll be the exhausted looking guy with the ol' prospector mustache and the deadline beard. :)
I will also be participating in the COMIC TWART panel on Friday at 4 pm in room 209. We've got lots of fun stuff planned for the panel - I hope if you're at Heroes you can attend.
You can also catch me at the Hero Initiative booth on Saturday, sketching for donations from 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm!
