Human artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you! (I’ll use three. Because I’m greedy)

I’m know, I know. I get it. Yuh hate AI. And you hate it more when someone does something that you low-key really dig. Other than the fact that this should be nighttime or sunset or some dark reactive color so you can see the fx and characters better, tell me you wouldn’t rock this tshirt…?

A great client is getting some cool illustrations. Just a heads up, sending internationally is a bit expensive for clients so please be aware. These are going to Europe and delivery prices will vary. Looking for commissions? You can look up my commissions agent Mark Hay at www.splashpageart.com.

Fun fact: the writer Ivan Velez was a big fan of Love & Rockets and Archie. He drew the pages you see in the art post here.

Drawing this book in particular helped with A CRAZY time in my life. But hey, I got to flex Supes! Regardless of what was settled on this cover, I still think you didn’t need to see Supes face on this image. That his powerful presence and popularity could survive a partial silhouette with an “S”.

Well who didn’t have fun with THIS book! I got the gist of extra-corporate dialogue in drawing this part of the mini… that when drawing Supes in another universe, there would much in the way of push/pull control. Lots of stress but still.. I got to draw “women’s romance novel” Supes.

Every cover I’ve done has had some kernel of inspiration and there’s two facts here: this was the first cover I ever penciled and inked in a professional capacity and thus cover was inspired by The Untouchables Movie poster. Wise Son as Elliot Ness. I’m sure Wise would have had an issue with it.

I love Michael B Jordan’s willingness to reach his inner BLERD just like me. Unapologetically.

I still remember drawing this cover. I had to use a lot of ingenuity. I did NOT feel like drawing every roach.

I think by this next ten books in this series, Ivan and I had really started to cut loose. Being able to reshape the image of Brickhouse was a fave of mine.

I’m glad to see this compiled. I wish the work would continue though. This cast of characters need more stories.
