This is the project I was busy with the last couple of days. It was a personal commission from Judd Apatow to give to his wife Leslie Mann for her birthday yesterday. Judd originally contacted me back in December with an idea to do a comic book style page telling a story from Leslie’s life, but we never connected with a script from him and after months of not hearing back I figured the project was dead. It happens. Then Judd calls me this weekend with the idea of doing a big group illustration of Leslie surrounded by himself and their daughters, plus about 30… READ MORE

Happy 91st to Mort Drucker!

March 23rd, 2020 | Posted in General

I was remiss yesterday in not posting a Happy Birthday wish to one of the greatest caricaturists who ever touched pen to paper…the incomparable Mort Drucker. I could type a long dissertation about his impact on the world of cartooning, caricature, illustration, comics and humor. but instead I’ll just link to this story about how I ended up with that incredible caricature of me by Mort above. You’re welcome. READ MORE

Last Day of My Virtual Artist’s Alley!

March 15th, 2020 | Posted in General

Only a little over five hours left to order something from my “Virtual ECCC Artist’s Alley Table”. Response has been OVERWHELMING, and while I was going to cut off the commissions after so many I decided I might as well go ahead and take everything that comes in. As a result I’ll be working on these probably all week long next week. I will be stopping it all at 5pm CDT tonight, so if you’ ve been thinking about ordering something better jump on it! READ MORE

Monday MADness- Dog the Bounty Hunter!

March 9th, 2020 | Posted in General

This week’s Monday MADness is a look at the splash page from MAD‘s parody of the “reality” TV show “Dog the Bounty Hunter” from issue #478 (June 2007) written by Dennis Snee. The original of this splash page is somewhere in Colombia when it went missing after a show I was in there for CaliComix. Maybe I should put Dog on the case! READ MORE

Burbank Workshop Art!

March 7th, 2020 | Posted in General

You get a bunch of swag when you take one of my caricature workshops, but one of the really unique things you get is to be drawn by me in the “class illustration” like the one from my January workshop in Burbank above. Everyone gets a print of the art, plus a high res digital copy. Right now I only have 4 available spots in my one remaining U.S. workshop for 2020… Indianapolis in September. Everything else is either sold out or taking place overseas. I might book another US based on in December but it’s unlikely, so Indianapolis will be your last chance to… READ MORE

Emerald City Comic Con Postponed Until Summer!

March 6th, 2020 | Posted in General

The folks at ReedPop have officially announced they are postponing Emerald City Comic Con until sometime in summer 2020. I guess my decision to back out of the show was the right one. I think this is best for all involved. Kudos to ReedPop for handling all this with professionalism and concern for everyone involved. I have a lot going on this summer so hopefully the new dates will be ones I can do. If so I’ll see you this summer, Seattle!!! READ MORE
