As I’ve had to spend most of my time either a) drawing storyboards or b)writing manuscripts, so my itch to draw “new” comics is driving me bonkers. So I’ve decided since I haven’t the time to write/draw three graphic novels at once(I’m writing two- well one manuscript is finished and at the publishers- made it […]
John Brown revisited
A couple of years ago I started a comic series based on the life of the pre-American Civil War Abolitionist John Brown. I finished the first chapter and put it together as a comic book so I could see if anyone was interested in publishing it. Well, I had a very good response from everyone […]
American Bob in French Sci-fi
This is my homage to great Moebius. I had drawn the original my sketchbook and it’s gone through many subtle versions before it arrived at it’s current state.
The work of David Mazzucchelli
Tonight I attended a discussion/talk of with comic creator David Mazzucchelli at MoCCA conducted by by Dan Nadel of Picturebox. It’s no secret to anyone that I’m a huge fan of Mazzucchelli’s work from his early superhero stuff to his most recent book, the incredible- jaw-dropping Asterios Polyp (I cannot recommend strongly enough getting this […]
ASIAN AMERICAN COMICON
I’ll be attending- though not exhibiting this Saturday at the ASIAN AMERICAN COMICON. I’ll be there with my pals and long time Rabid Rabbit collaborators Anuj Shrestha and S.Y.Choi.

JUNE almost over- good riddance to crappy rainy June
Yes, it was crappy June. it rained nearly every stinking day here in New York. It’s sad that a month that normally is the best part of New York summer was so… soaked. Now it seems we’re being thrown into a hot, humid, and stinky July without a nice June. Damn you Global warming. Spaceman! […]
SketchBook Mania
My sketchbook is a literal mess. I’m always envious when I see another person’s sketchbook and it’s a pristine collection of drawing fit to be housed at the Met. But then again, I’d miss the random styles and explorations that plague and sprout up in my sketchbooks. I guess if you were to dig up […]
work work work
Been exceptionally busy as of late- but wanted to drop a quick post. I’ve been doing storyboards and comps at the JWT, an Advertising agency with mondo-clientele as Microsoft and Johnson and Johnson(not said too impress you, just to put in scope how fricking ridiculously huge these guys are). The work is light on thought […]
