300px-Warblade_Endangered_Species_Vol_1_2Today’s post is a nice splash page by penciler Scott Clark and inker Sal Regla. This one comes from Warblade: Endangered Species # 2, page 8. This is a very nice example of the kind of art being pumped out of the various studios over at Image Comics for a long time. 

What is noticeable right away is the strict style of inking. I knew that this was a page from an Image book as soon as I saw the inking style. It seemed like nearly all the artists coming up through the ranks over there had that same look to their work. The style alone was such a dead giveaway that I had some idea of what the collectability of the piece was right off the bat.

It is, of course, 11×17 on Image Comics board. Continue reading »

Protector1Just a little reminder that the newest book in the Foreigner Series by CJ Cherryh, Protector, comes out today. Protector is the 2nd book of the 5th ‘Sequence’ (5th trilogy), making it the 14th book in the series.

The next book in the series, Peacemaker, appears to be completed, although in a ‘pre-submission edit’ state, according to CJ Cherryh’s blog, Wave Without a Shore.

All the books in the Foreigner Series are available on audio at Audible as well, in case your interested.

A while back CJ shared a link to the blog of Todd Lockwood, the cover artists for several books in the series. On his blog he allows us to take a look behind the scenes at how the covers for the books come into being. Continue reading »

Every now and again a piece of art comes along that you really like. So you place your bid and hope for the best, right? Not necessarily, my dear reader. Sometimes there’s someone out there who wants it more, has more money to play with, or simply overpays. Whatever the reason, there’s always going to be ‘the one that got away’. This is a post about one of those.

DRACULA

Andy Fish is an accomplished and respected artist who lives and works in the northeast United States . He has a number of blogs and has won many awards. He’s big, like Ron Burgandy big.  And, judging from the items and art that I have seen for sale, he really seems to enjoy old cinema villains and creatures like Frankenstein and Dracula and such.

He’s also a big fan of the 60’s Batman TV show and it’s star Adam West. He had one of the first web-comics around, a little strip named ‘Adam Bomb‘, which I also have a few pieces from.

His credits include at least 16 Graphic novels and a number of screenplays. He’s big. Continue reading »
