I'm a former Marvel penciler (Daredevil #373)
This is my recent work from the last year for Blue Shack Comics, Lenovations Press, Disinter Comics, and Dr. Masque.

Without social media, I never would have found out that my Daredevil #373 cover was given new life through the work of these notable artists; Paolo Rivera, Peach Momoko and Dustin Nguyen.
Many thanks to Jeremiah Fettinger, Dakota Alexander, and Alex Macphee whom I met through FB

Just learned that Peach Momoko also did an homage to my DD #373 pose. I consider it an honor 🙏

It's quite an honor for me to have Dustin Nguyen do an homage of my pose from Daredevil #373 for this Batman / Daredevil crossover.
It's tiny, but really cool! I just found out about it today, thanks to my friend Dakota Alexander.

Rest in peace Dave Taylor 🙏
This obi was hard. I’m very sad to report the passing of the marvellous comic artist, UFO and Rush fanatic Dave Taylor, most recently known for his outstanding work for 2000AD, who, at the time of his death, had been working on the second volume Megatropolis for Judge Dredd Megazine
In Memoriam: Comic Artist Dave Taylor
A small tribute to a great artist...

I'm leaving the industry, so I have nothing to lose.
The big 2 don't care about comic veterans.
They have no loyalty to, or gratitude for the comic veterans upon whose backs they built their success in comics and film.
Here's a parting middle finger to Marvel and DC🖕

I'll be taking a break from comics for a while.
My day job has become more stressful, and I'll be teaching martial arts a few more nights a week soon.
It was a really fun year!

I visited my friend Christian Angeles who was tabling at Nerd Fest in Swedesboro, NJ today.
I had the pleasure of meeting Derek Allen from Konkret comics and Robert J. Sodaro, comic writer. Hoping to have the opportunity to work with them in the future 🙏

A vendor visited my table on Sunday, pointed at my copy of DD #373 and said, "That's a nice cover. Everyone wants that issue. It's hard to find." and I said, "Really?!" Lol 🤷♂️

I had a great time meeting Daredevil fans at the Tom's River Toy and Comic Show. I had the most visitors and sold more prints & comics at this show than any of the other events I've done before.
Many thanks to the hosts Kevin & Margit for their hospitality and support 🙏
