Here’s some fun news! One of my licensed comics will be back in print soon from IDW. They announced a new Powerpuff Girls mini-series and will also be reprinting my work in Powerpuff Girls Classics Volume 1: Power Party!
Hey Everybody! I’ve been quite busy lately working on some freelance jobs and a new graphic novel (details to be announced at a future date).
Since I’m back on a book deadline now, I’ve been thinking about productivity and best ways to get a lot of pages done in the limited time I have. As all cartoonists know, comics take a long time to produce. Typically, a cartoonist must tackle writing, penciling, inking, coloring, and even more extra tasks. A lot of steps! Often I get asked about how I make time to get my comics and blogging projects done since I do those things in addition to a full-time job. I’ve come upon an approach that I wanted to share since I think it would be helpful for others (whether you’re a cartoonist or not). Read the rest of this entry »

I recently finished a cool new project, drawing comics and illustrations for HPGRP Gallery’s HIGHLINER! The HIGHLINER is a neighborhood culture guide for the Chelsea & Meatpacking District of New York City. It was interesting to write a short story about characters enjoying the area and to interpret some of the famous local architecture too. It is available for free at HPGRP gallery (529 W 20th St #2w, NYC ) and various shops in the area. So if you see it grab it! Here are some pictures ^_^

My first illustration of the year – it’s my Mom!
Hope everybody had a great 2012! It was a landmark year for me – I got married! Also, it was my year of most travel yet, with a January trip to France for the Angoulême comics festival followed up with a side-trip to Belgium with my cartoonist friend Yuuko Koyama, who came all the way from Japan to join me for the adventure! Then, my book Dolltopia had a Spanish edition come out in May, so I planned a visit to Madrid and Barcelona for the occasion. 2012′s travels wound up with a 2-week honeymoon in Japan. I love to travel (and of course eat the great food on my travels) so lots of these comics are travel oriented. Enjoy!
Matt and I are back from our honeymoon and I’m finally getting some time to start writing about our amazing trip to Japan! We went for two weeks, visiting Fukuoka, Nara, Osaka, and Tokyo. A highlight of our Tokyo trip was exhibiting in the Artist Alley of Kaigai Manga Festa (seems like their site is being updated now, but here is the official twitter), the first ever international comics show in Japan which was put on in conjunction with the quarterly indie comic event, Comitia! Originally, we were going to exhibit with our friend Yuuko Koyama at Comitia as I had done in the past (full post on that here), but when the Festa was announced we felt we should be there to represent our aspect of American comics. Luckily we were able to get a table and it worked out great! Read the rest of this entry »
Please consider backing The Big Feminist BUT on Kickstarter, it’s a comics anthology about modern women’s–and men’s–attitudes towards feminism. The lineup of artists is amazing and I am honored to have a piece in this book. Please check it out and share! Below is an excerpt from my story!
Updated New maps! Lots going on this Fall! Matt Loux and I just got married ^_^ For our honeymoon we will be going to Japan. We will be participating in the Artist Alley (map above – we’ll be at table A-09) of Kaigai Manga Festa, an international comics festival held in conjunction with Comitia at Tokyo Big Site. If you are in Tokyo, please come and say hello! Below is a full map of the Festa.
