Captain America & Iron Man Stuff to Whet Your Civil War Appetite

Captain America: Civil War is still a week away and if you’re like me you can barely contain your excitement!

So, to help wile away the hours until then, here’s some stuff to peruse. Enjoy!

Superhero Squad Cards

When the boy was little he had all these cute little Marvel action figures that he just loved. Apparently they were really popular because they also spawned a TV show, a video game, and a set of trading cards. Here’s a sampling:

Yeah, you’re gonna want to download this one. If for no other reason thatn to help Hulk with the problem in his pants. I’m not kidding.

Meet My Assistant

rd-may-2016-1

It’s been a little while since I’ve been featured in Reader’s Digest, so I’m really happy to share that I’m in the May issue. Here’s the cartoon:

It’s a gag I like, and I’m happy with the line art, but what I really love is the color on this, and I can say that without sounding like a jerk because I didn’t do it.

For about two years now I’ve been working with a terrific artist named Rick Hughes and he handles all my shading and coloring. I’m a competent colorist, but Rick’s work is of a much higher caliber (I mean look at that above!) and I’m super lucky to have found him.

So, if you’re looking for someone to help you shade, color, or otherwise help out with any art duties, drop Rick a line, OK? He’s a good guy, he’s never missed a deadline, and his work speaks for itself.
