Wolverine Origins-"SEVEN THE HARD WAY”

Fri Oct 16, 2009, 4:51 PM
~NEW Wolverine: Origins Arc~

Finally a preview has been published of Doug Braithwaite's and my work on Wolverine: Origins "SEVEN THE HARD WAY" PART 1 (of 5). The story arc is in issues #41-45 and written by Daniel Way. I've posted the pages previewed and will add more once the book is published.

There are a few color previews online. This one is from [link] CBR, but like the others is for some reason lo-res and blurry. I'll post some color versions also because colorist Andy Troy is doing a great job!

~Fall 2009~
As usual every year my wife Linda and I travel up to the Michigan Upper Peninsula (U.P.) to catch the fall color. Saw some new sites this year and will post some of those photos soon. More trees and waterfalls!

Here's a short bio of my adventures in comic art-

I'm a 1982 graduate of the American Academy of Art in downtown Chicago. I have been a professional Comic Book Artist for 27 years. Working for comic book companies such as, First Comics, Marvel Comics, and DC comics. Drawing characters The Badger, The Punisher, Silver Surfer, Batman, and more.
The bulk of my comic work doing pencils was with the great writer Mike Baron. In 1993 we co-created a series called SPYKE that was originally published by Epic/Marvel.
In recent years I've done several pieces of art for the Upper Deck trading card game Marvel Vs. and a lot of sketch cards.


 As a comic book inker, I've worked with other artists on Marvel Comics books such as the Earth X trilogy, The Punisher, The Amazing Spider-Man, Daredevil, and The Hulk.
At DC Comics I've inked books with characters Batman, Green Arrow, Fate, etc.

Artists I've been fortunate to ink include- Jon Bogdanove, Steve Ditko, George Freeman, Ron Garney, Keith Giffen, Adam Kubert, John Paul Leon, Ron Lim, Lan Medina, Steve Rude, Ryan Sook, Jill Thompson, Ron Wagner, Ryan Sook, and many more.

didnt you had a deviant art page. excellent work by the way i was at your guest lecture at AAA and at the follow up demo in Mr. Herzbergs class and found it very informative. it would be awesome if you came back did a how to properly market yourself at conventions. i believe it would be very informative.
:iconbillreinhold:
Hi Jesus! I really enjoyed doing that at the AAA.

I of course have my own experiences getting work through the years, but there is a Chicago area artist named Andrew Pepoy [link] has given talks on just that at Chicago Con/Wizard World for many years.

I'm probably best on the process more than networking.

Of course the real secret is just be great and you won't be refused! :-)

Great to see someone as old as me, but to find a Great comic book artist is even rarer, terrific stuff, I grew up on Ditko,Kirby,Frazetta etc in the 60's/70's so I can relate to your comic style. I have faved you, I had no choice you are that good.:)
