Yeah Yeah, Keezy Fem

I'm still super-excited over the Young Justice: Invasion premiere! I'm very pleased with all the character designs. I feel Wonder Girl's costume is a bit too plain, though, so I did my own thing. I kept it casual and sporty while giving it more of a modern feel. Hope y'all can dig it! Peace.

Good Morning, Angels

This is for the geek girls. There are comic book superheroines who continue to kick ass also. "What If... Birds of Prey was a multiple company crossover title?" Peace.

You Are NOT The Father

By now, you may have heard of Before Watchmen . But did you know The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good explored the possibilities of After Watchmen ? I chose a concept, which featured the children of Nite Owl & Silk Spectre. Check it out HERE . Someone call Jerry or Maury! Peace.

I Believe The Children Are Our Future

Here's my cover to Young Justice 200 for the "Anniversary Issues That'll Never Be" theme over at The Line It Is Drawn ! I hope y'all dig it as much as I enjoyed making it! I love these kids and hope there's a place for them in the DCU in the future. Clockwise from the top: Milagro Reyes, Chris Kent, Lian Harper, Maxine Baker, Jai West, Irey West, Sin Lance, Damian Wayne Peace.

It Has GOT To Be Fattening

It's CBLDF Week over at The Line It Is Drawn ! So we teamed up comic book characters with the symbol of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund , Lady Liberty! I chose a suggestion from TLIID Suggestion Master  Mike Shirley , which paired her with Tony Chu from my favorite comic book,  CHEW ! Please consider being a member of CBLDF , a worthwhile and honorable organization, and cop that CHEW ! Peace.

Start Snitchin'

It's Harry Potter Week over at The Line It Is Drawn ! I was very unfamiliar with the books and films so I wanna thank my friends at Twitter for keeping me focused and intrigued with watching the series over the holidays! This goes out to you... Nico Minoru & Cho Chang playing Quidditch! Peace.

That's How We Do It in Lima Heights

If It Isn't Love

Here's the latest from The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good! The theme is "Comic Book Super Bands!" I chose to pay tribute to New Edition with the suggestion of a band comprised of golden boys from four different and major comic book companies/imprints. So yeah... this one goes out to my fellow comic book and R&B lovers. It's an interesting mash-up in itself, though I'm not sure if there are many of us. heh Hope y'all digs anyway! Peace.

The Lady Fox & The Ghost Who Walks

Halle Burrehhhh... Halle Berry... Here's the latest The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good! I was actually about to begin doing a Vixen redesign right before I came across the suggestion that included her so I leapt at the chance. Serendipity! Although, I decided to just do simple and minor nip/tucks of her previous costume to keep her intuitive. Not really feeling how generic her New 52 design looks. Also, the Phantom was one of my most favorite characters when I was a young buck watching Defenders of The Earth so it was very cool to get to draw him again after decades! Check out my illo  HERE . Hope y'all digs! Peace.

Green Toast & SHAZAM!

Here's the latest  The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good! The theme for the week is a mash-up of children's picture books and comic book characters! I chose to pay tribute to this Dr. Seuss classic because the idea struck me like lightning once I read the sweet suggestion. Check out an embiggened version of my piece HERE . I hope y'all digs! Peace.

Banded Together From Remote Galaxies

... are 13 of The Most Sinister Villains of All-Time. We haven't seen them together in years, so here they are again in this week's The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good! The theme is Comic Book Cover Homages v.2 so I chose to do a fun suggestion based on the classic  Justice League International #1 cover by Kevin Maguire. Check out my piece HERE . Enjoy! Make sure to follow then tweet @CSBG your suggestions for next week's theme: Supervillain Team-Up! Choose two supervillains who haven't teamed up before to go up against any superhero you want! Fun! Peace.

We're Rough!

A new The Line It Is Drawn is up over at Comics Should Be Good , the best comic book blog site ever! One of our awesome suggestion-givers wanted to see the new Ultimate Spider-Man, Miles Morales, joining a boy band... so I dropped it NKOTB style! This is my welcome for Miles. I can't wait for his stories and to share them with my nephew. Check out my illo alongside the HEE-larious non-Peter Parker Spidey pieces of The Line artists  HERE . Much respect to Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente, John Rogers, Keith Giffen, Grant Morrison, and Brian Michael Bendis for creating compelling superheroes that reflect the real world. Thank you, champions!

Dream A Little Dream

DC Relaunch for you! DC Relaunch for you! Everybody gets a Relaunch! Oh, I wish. And I'm not alone. This week for the The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good , we're celebrating DC's exciting September Relaunch! And we're doing it by having made first issue covers of DC-based titles re/imagined by our faithful readers and art appreciators. Naturally, I chose one of my dream gigs and teamed it with one of the best and, incidentally, one of the coolest writers in comics, Gail Simone . Check out my piece and those of The Line giants  HERE . Thank goodness a guy can still dream. Long Live Ryan Choi! (Here's one of my early chicken-scratch roughs for the redesign....) Peace.

Nature Selected Them For Extinction

How amazing is Avengers Academy ? Jurassically. That's how. So when someone suggested to do Reptil as the Jurassic Park logo for this week's The Line It Is Drawn over at Comics Should Be Good , I pounced on it like a hungry velociraptor. The recent issue 14 inspired me to go where I took it. Check out my meager illo and the masterpieces from The Line giants HERE . Spoiler Alert : You won't regret it! They killed it yet another week. Next week's topic is so brilliant, I don't even know where to start. Make sure to  follow then tweet CSBG   your suggestions for  a tweak on a DC hero or team and we'll each draw a #1 cover for that character/group. This is all in honor of DC's exciting announcement of the humongo line-wide changes in their universe come September. So... go nuts! Please! Peace.

Goddess vs. Amazon

It's Artemis vs. Artemis! I gave the Amazon Artie pants since pants are all the rage these days. I also rendered in a new way that I'm not accustomed to. Fun stuff! Check out my piece over at The Line It Is Drawn ! I hope you digs! Peace.
