I’m a comic book artist. And a hockey fan. But don’t hold that against me.

Sorry to hear our necessary shipping changes won’t work for you… just remember that being a HI community member doesn’t require that you buy anything, so you can still hang out & socialize, let folks know when & where your work is being published, etc.!
Hey Jason – just picked up Perhapanauts #5 – nice job on “the evaluation”! (I’m not sure what to make of the rest of the comic, this is the first issue I’ve read…;-) )
Jason!
Just got your sketchbook. Very very cool. I love your Ancient Greece pieces, your take on mythology is going to be a sweet book. You really got some wonderful sketches through-out the book…like the page with the hand holding a piny grain and the guy in the sombrero.
I also want to thank you for the awesome Cherokee drawing. I laughed out load when I read the caption (also great face).
This is very inspiring. I was kind of planning on doing a flip sketchbook with a buddy of mine, but it fell through when he got too busy with his new Iron Fist book…so I just kind of dropped it. But after seeing your sketchbook, I think I might put some pages together and see what happens.
Again, thank you!

Jason,
How have you been, Just wanted to drop you a line and seehow you are doing :)
Alex-
What’s wrong with being a hockey fan? Me too! (But my team’s the Flyers, so you probably hate me. :D)
Thanks, Jason! I hope that you enjoy the finished product!

Alex! Nice to see you, sir!
Wow the stuff on your blog looks great. What are your inking tools of choice? I’m tired of using Microns. Any suggestions? And it’s good to see another hockey fan too. Cheers
Hey man, what can I say. I like staring at drawings. It mystifies me. In theory, it’s just excelled coordination of the hand, yet no matter how much I practice, I can’t swing it. It’s like going to Cirque de Soleil and thinking “With enough yoga, I could do that” and then finding out no, no you can’t.
In summary: u draw gud.
…so, he’s new to me, but I’ll be keeping an eye out, and ordering more of his stuff.
Well, I just ordered Tiempos Finales from him, and loved it. He also runs the Fist-A-Cuffs thing, which is just brilliant.
I’m slightly familiar with Sam’s work. Friend and colleague Michael May has introduced me to Sam a few times, but I’ve never had a chance to sit down and look at his stuff. Michael had a pretty cool sketch from Sam, though. What are some titles that Sam’s worked on?
Jason, good list! (Although I’m not terribly familiar with Ashley Wood, I like a lot of what I’ve seen – with the exception of Tank Girl, which was just a little too jarring on the eyes.) I recently stumbled on Sam Hiti – are you familiar with him?
I tend to follow artists who have more of an “art” look to their work. Guy Davis, Paul Pope, Ashley Wood, Bill Sienkiewicz, Walt Simonson are all artists that put out work that I will buy, no questions asked.
I tend to stay away from most superhero titles, so my knowledge of many of those book’s artists is pretty nonexistent.
You’ve thought correctly, so who do you gravitate towards when it comes to artists?
Hey, took a gander at your blog..
kiiinda diggin’ your stuff.
I mean “kinda” as in like,
a platonically flirty type way…
not in a maybe-ish sort of way.
