Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom Preview

Hey! While doing some late night internet browsing before turning in tonight, I found that Austin over at the official Wildstorm blog has posted a bunch of pages from the upcoming Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom #1--in color! Apparently there's also a preview in the comic Garrison #1 which came out today but I haven't seen that yet. You'd think someone would let me know, but I'm just happy this stuff is finally being seen! Click HERE to see the preview and check out a bonus preview page below. Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom #1 will hit the stands June 2.

Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom #2 Cover Art

The cover for Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom #2 was revealed today on the
official Wildstorm blog. The fully colored version is above, while my pencil art can be seen below. It's nice to finally be getting some of this stuff out there! Meanwhile, the official DC Comics blog let the cat out of the bag on another job of mine: I'll be doing a variant cover for the first issue of Time Masters: Vanishing Point, a mini-series out in July that ties in to Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne.

In stores this week: issue #3 of the Human Target comic (featuring a five page short story I drew) and the second volume of the Tom Strong deluxe collection.

I also wanted to let people know about a few store appearances and conventions I'll be doing in the near future:
- May 1 - I'll be signing at Packrat Comics in Hilliard, Ohio for Free Comic Book Day, from 10AM onwards. I'm looking forward to meeting Nicholas Brendon (the actor who played Xander on Buffy), who'll also be there!
- May 12 - Challengers Comics in Chicago will be having me in for a signing on the day Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #1 is released, 5PM-8PM (but I'll probably be there earlier than that).
- June 2 - The Laughing Ogre comic shop in Columbus, OH will be hosting me for a signing of Tom Strong and the Robots of Doom #1, out that very day.
- June 5-6 - Looks like I'll be returning to the Toronto Comicon Fan Appreciation Event (provided my new passport arrives in time!). I will try my best to have a new sketchbook out in time for some of these events, but my schedule is insanely tight right now, so we'll have to wait and see!
