X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Seven

The second issue of X-Men vs Agents of Atlas is out TODAY!! Be sure to pick up a copy or twelve, okay?

Hope you all have as much fun reading these two issues as I did working on them with Jeff Parker. Here's hoping this won't be the last time we get to make some funnybooks together.

While you're at the shop be sure to also grab yourself a stack of The Mighty #10.

There's lots of great new comics out in stores today... but these two are the only ones with my name in 'em:)

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Six

Since the second issue of X-Men vs Agents of Atlas is out this Wednesday I figured we'd crack open the ol' sketchbook again and post a few early stabs I took at some more of the characters, that appeared the flashback sequences I drew for the issues, this week.
I'm still sticking with the 3 posts a week schedule so be sure to check back on Wednesday and Friday for more!!

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Five

This has been a lot of fun. I've still got quite a few sketches where these came from, what do you say we do it all again in about a month or so for the second issue?
Have a great weekend, folks! I'll see ya in the funnybooks!

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Four

Did you all pick up your copies of X-Men vs Agents of Atlas and The Mighty yesterday?
Here's a bit more of my preliminary work for the book as a thank you to all of you out there who managed to snag copies! You guys are the best!:D
To those who didn't: Avert your eyes from the sketch below until you've made your purchase! Thank you.

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Three (And the MIGHTY)

Out on stands today is issue #1 of X-Men vs Agents of Atlas, written by the the one-and-only Jeff Parker himself, illustrated by Carlo Pagulayan with 8 pages of classic action dutifully doodled by yours truly, all wrapped in two, count 'em TWO different covers to choose from. The regular edition is by Ed McGuinness

or if your tastes lean more toward the undead, there's the zombie variant by Gerald Parel


Veronica Gandini turned in a swell job on the colors for the issue, like the one you see here. This is my first page in the issue, sans dialogue.

and here's the black & white line art so that we can have something new up here today:)



The Mighty #9 is also on stands at your local comic shop today, with another beauty of a cover by Dave Johnson and, as should come as no surprise to those that have been following along, it's another scorcher of an issue by the writing team of Peter Tomasi and Keith Champagne!

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day Two

Nothing says Tuesday like The Beast! Sigh. I'm a bit stumped for commentary here... you folks mostly just look at the doodles anyway. right?

X-Men vs Agents of Atlas: Day One

In anticipation of the first issue of X-Men vs Agents of Atlas hitting stands this Wednesday I figured I'd go ahead and post some of my preliminary sketches.
Hope you all dig this little peek behind the curtain, because I'll be posting this sort of thing throughout the rest of the week:)

On stands today is The Mighty #8, the halfway point of my run on the title. Be sure to pick up a copy today when you head out to the comic shop.
