Captain Scarlet Cover Artist
I'm pretty excited about the way things are shaping up. Misc!MAYHEM should have a new look to the website soon (thanks, Randall!), so keep your eyes on www.miscmayhemprods.com over the next few weeks. Big, cool changes comin'.
Also, the cover for the #0 issue of CAPTAIN SCARLET is coming along nicely. It's going to be a painted cover by the ultra-talented Scott Rosema, and it's shaping up nicely. Scott was kind enough to send me copies of the preliminary pencils, which were stunning. He's making a few minor changes, and will have a retooled version for me when I see him in Chicago next weekend. Hopefully, I'll be able to post a link to that one. After that, he'll be painting the final version. If you're a Captain Scarlet fan (and even if you're not), I think you're really going to enjoy this cover. Like I said, Scott is a major talent, and a super-nice guy. Stop by and see him at a show, or check him out online at http://www.comicartistsdirect.com/rosema.html. He's real gung-ho about the project, and we're actually talking about another, non-Scarlet story that he might fully pencil. More on that as/when it happens.
I've done a lot of things in my life. I've worked as a writer, a graphic designer, a magician and escape artist, a tarot card reader, a comedy defensive driving instructor, a sommelier...you name it, I've probably done it at one point or another. But the one unrealized ambition I've lived with for years is to write comic books. It's taken a certain amount of courage (not to mention getting over a sometimes near-crippling fear of rejection) to get to this point, but I'm thrilled that it's all coming together now.
Thanks for reading, and come back soon.
