We're back and ready to go...

The Internet was up and down for 13 very long days this month. When it was working, it was slower than dial up. I'm still waiting for my first major order from Ka-Blam so I can start to sell them at comic book stores and at conventions when they come to my area. Just a reminder that Shadow Rider and Legends of the Spellbinders are at(http://www.indyplanet.com/) if anyone wanted to order one. If the sales go good on book one, I might have a special edition sketch cover with an 8 page back up story and a handful of pin up art also.


Take care and have a great week

Back from the printer!!!

I was going to post this on Saturday night, but my Internet went down till this afternoon. Both books are now printed and ready to order. That's right!!! Shadow Rider and Legends of the Spellbinders are now up at (http://www.indyplanet.com/). On Friday, I received some great news from a very good friend of mine. Ron Fortier wrote a great blog about me and High Voltage comics on his website http://www.airship27.com/. You should check out his website. He updates it every Friday. I met Ron around 1985 when I wanted to be an artist. But later on I changed my direction and stuck to being a just a writer. Ron's a great guy and great writer to boot. He has helped me out in many ways and I couldn't have gotten to this point without his help. (And you too Heidi ;^) She is my wife and my editor for 16 years now and she means the world too me and I don't know what I'd do without her.

The evolution of a comic book page part 6...

Two things happen in my life 15 years ago this mouth and one of them affected me more then the other. On November 18th, Superman died in the comic books and three days later I was married to Heidi. On Wednesday we celebrated or 15th years together with our two children. (Wow I can't believe how fast the years have gone by.) I just hope the next 15 years I'll become a better husband and father to my family.

As you all know by now, Thanksgiving was on Thursday and I hope everyone had the chances to spent it with family or friends. We went over to Dover and spent some time at my Aunts and Uncle's house for their annual Thanksgiving dinner and there must have been over fifteen of us at the table. (Nothing better then spending time with the family.)

Yesterday was black Friday, but instead of going out shopping with the rest of the world, we decided to stay home and decorate the Christmas tree and here it is...











I know I said this before, (About 5 times before this one) but this is one of my favorite things I like about working on a comic book. Here's page 11 to Shadow Rider from stat to finish.

First off, Heidi and I took the kids out to Dover NH on October 30th for Trick or Treating or what we call Beggar's Night and last night we went out Trick or Treating around Kennebunk and Arundel. Well here a photo of my children before they went out to scare the local townfolks. The one in the hockey mask is my son Thomas and the one in the leather face mask is Thomas good friend Adrian and the young girl is my daughter Annakah.


Until Saturday, take care...

100th anniversary of scouting...

Today we went to Oxford Maine to celebrate The Maine Boy scout jamboree. It's a celebration to honor the 100th anniversary of scouting. This year there's a huge celebration in London England but because it's so far away and not everyone can attend, Pine tree council decided to have their own. hundreds of scouts gathered from all over Maine and New Hampshire for this weekend event. We drove for 62.7 mile and it took us 1hr 14 min to get there. We accidentally missed the exit and had to turn around but it was worth it. The leaves were vibrant with yellows and reds. The scenery was breathtaking. We were there for most of the day (Because my son Thomas is part of Troop 33o of Arundel Maine.) and they had a lot of things there to celebrate the spirit of Boy Scouts.

Here's page 14 to "Shadow Ride". I know I said last week was going to be the last page I was going to show, but I know showing this page won't spoil the ending to the story. Once again, the pages was done by the talented artist of David Llorente Cortés and colored by the talented artist of Guillermo Ucha.

1st anniversary

As of October 10th, it marks my 1st anniversary here and a lot has happen in one year. From my daily live to my journey to becoming a published comic book writer.

On the home front, my son Thomas made 1st class in Boy scouts and he's now a Freshmen in High School and he's growing into a wonderful young man. My daughter Annakah is now a Junior in Girl Scouts and she's now in the 4th grade and she's growing into a beautiful young woman and Heidi and I are so very proud of both of them.

On the comic book front, Shadow Ride and Angela: Demon Huntress are 80% to 90% done and with a few more pages, they should be off to the printer before the end November.

Here's page 29 to Angela: Demon Huntress was colored by Blake Wilkie and the art was done by the talented artists of Komikers Studio.



Here's page 12 to "Shadow Ride". The page was done by the talented artist of David Llorente Cortés and colored by the talented artist of Guillermo Ucha. This will be the last page I can show until it's printed, because I don't want to spoil the ending.

Take care and have a great week...

An update on this site...

Just to let everyone know, I'm going to update my weekly log entry every Saturday morning. I want to go back to posting on a regular schedule. It's been too long of a gap between postings. I don't like it and I know no one else does either. I want people to come back here on a regular basis to see what's been going on in my life as well as what I'm working on. Like I said in the first log, this site will serve as a portfolio of my life's work and it will also showcase my upcoming projects. So please continue to join me on my journey to becoming a better person and a published comic book writer. Once again, thank you Larry.

The finished colored page to Shadow Rider...

I found a new colorist to work on "Shadow Ride" and here's page 3. The page was done by the talented artist of David Llorente Cortés and colored by Guillermo Ucha, who's also a very talented artist. I think Guillermo Ucha takes David Llorente Cortés pages to a new level and I can't wait to get this book printed.

A few pencil page to book two...

While I wait for the last 13 page to book one to come back to me from the colorist. I thought I would show a few pencil pages to Angela: Demon Huntress book two. They were e-mailed to me by the talented artists of Komikers Studio. Man I can't wait for them to be inked, colored and lettered.
