Here's a fun little mashup I drew as a tribute to Frank Miller's iconic The Dark Knight Returns cover, featuring Wolverine and Deadpool, blades out and DP rocking his Metallica Ride The Lightning t-shirt, camo shorts and official Deadpool fanny pack.

This painting arose from musing on an interview that Stanley Kubrick gave in 1968, a source of inspiration I have gone back to over the years, revisiting comments made by the director. 1/3

Heading to the cinema to see Paprika tonight. I've not seen it before, so I'm excited for the trippy, mind-bending visuals on the big screen.

A few years back I drew this Galactus & Silver Surfer piece as a private commission and after seeing the new Fantastic Four movie, it felt like the perfect time to share it again.

I had the pleasure of designing an official Deadpool X Wrexham artwork for Marvel Stadium in Melbourne.

The mural itself was painted up by Apparition Media.

This was a fun project, mixing Marvel mayhem, football energy, and the chaos of multiple Deadpool variants plus Wolverine on the pitch. ⚽

Cool seeing this photo after all these years… a special moment at Armageddon 2008 with Jim Lee introducing himself and telling what a fan he was to legendary artist Colin Wilson of 2000ad and Blueberry fame.

That’s baby me and my brother Adam next to Colin, it was only my 2nd con as a guest 🧠💥
A bit of Australian Comic Book History, taken during @jimlee.bsky.social 2008 visit to Australia.

Also pictured with legendary 2000ad, and Blueberry Illustrator, Colin Wilson, along with Wayne, and Adam Nichols.
