Heads up, @ianchasenichols.bsky.social also had a cover stolen during Fan Expo Boston. If you see it, please let him know!
Thanks so much @storrieville.bsky.social ! So glad you had fun with Undersea Hero!
Paul D Storrie@storrieville.bsky.social · 2w agoAGES ago (or a few months), I got @ianchasenichols.bsky.social's UNDERSEA HERO: Great Barrier Beef. Then I misplaced it. But it finally surfaced! (Get it? SURFACED? Sea what I did there?) This is a fun, funny tribute to an often neglected segment of the superhero population! (Undersea heroes! Duh!)
making progress on this friendly neighborhood spider-man canson paper sketch between inking pages…
I’ve only drawn a handful of covers. Here are some of them.
Good luck to all my friends, fellow professionals, fellow fans, vendors, volunteers, staff, crew, and curious onlookers at San Diego Comic Con this week! I hope it's a wonderful experience and everything you hope it can be!
Planet Comics #7 wraps up our two-part Tick story! Here's a four-page preview with art by @duaneredhead.bsky.social!
Here's a cover for the newest Planet Comics from Eli Stone! Eli wrote and drew the classic "Big Blue Destiny" and "Luny Bin" Tick stories that followed the Edlund run. This is a wraparound cover!
Rest in Peace Mitch Byrd , an extremely talented artist and draftsman. I really enjoyed the lessons he put out in magazines.
Travis Ellisor@travisellisor.bsky.social · 4w agoRest in Peace Mitch Byrd Mitch was probably mostly known by comics fans for drawing Guy Gardner in his "Warrior" phase, but he always preferred drawing dinosaurs. He was a super-talented, super-nice guy.
They should do a GLADIATOR III with Russell Crowe fighting murder trucks and call it MAXIMUS OVERDRIVE.
Not many things better than a writing breakthrough on a story you've been working on in your head for a really long time. #comics
This is Superman sketch cover I did last year, playing with a white paint pen and a grey Pitt pen for highlights and shadow!
Capybara day, you say?

Don Newton covered The Comic Reader 146 (1977).
My cover to The Amazing Spider-Man #1000, my initial sketch, the inked art, and my initial color pass.
Started listening to this at lunch and it's a really strong interview/feature about Ed's life and career. Ed's very candid, the framing and analysis seems spot on, full of anecdote and colour. It's worth your eyes and attention.

Joe Kubert's work generally swung back and forth between naturalism and expressionism as the story required. I always treasure the moments when he'd just say fuckit and swing all the way toward the expressive side.
Ok, This @eriklarsen.bsky.social cover for Amazing Spider-Man #1000 is pretty great. It's still quintessentially Larsen, but I love the Ditko-y feel to it, too.
I drew this for the Hero Initiative X-Men 100 book and auction, so check eBay soon! They are putting them up there 10 at a time, for bidding. And the book ships in July as well!
