I managed to go for a 23 miles bike ride today, and finish my cover design for Stray Tales vol.1
It's a "Coloring Comic Book" - as in, a b&w comic book that I invite you to color yourself.
Here is the full cover and the front view:
Soon to join my other books on Amazon.

New Cover and Illustration Friday
It so happens that the new cover image for my soon-to-be-ready book Stray Tales fits this week's Illustration Friday theme perfectly: Space.
I finished the ink on the image this afternoon. Next is color and finalizing the cover layout.
In the mean time, Illustration Friday-
Space: Sometimes it's good to take space from so-called civilization and get some perspective.

Denver Comic Con Pictures
Denver Comic Con was a total blast! It's on the list of to-do every year from now on.
I've got pictures of my table and tons of people in costumes. I'm only going to post some of my favorite ones here, otherwise this would be the longest post ever ... really ...
First, my table:
Star Wars was as usual very well represented, with a few for Star Trek fans and some just for fun.

First, my table:
There were soooo00OOO many zombies of all kinds, that I made a "Gore-Zombie-Gun Free Zone" sign for my table.
I got several appreciative comments from people stopping by.
Below is a shot of the postcards and stickers I brought.
The TOOT series (cartoons) always do well, and the Dr. Who one was a BIG hit.

And off course, MY personal favorite, Dr. Who, very much in attendance:
Tom Baker (#4) and David Tennant (#10) were the most represented, though I did see Matt Smith (#11) and Amy Pond but did not get a good picture -that and several people with Matt Smith's "very cool" bow tie. Oh, and tons TONS of Dr. Who t-shirts of all types! He's definitively the man of the hour.
I just might have to make one of my own ...
There actually was a guy inside this, scooting it along.
Ex-TER-mi-NAAAAAAATE !!!!!

They're always well received and they're a fun additional little gift for people buying books.

Phileas Adventurer Episode 3
It's been all about scanning today, big pages that I have to scan in 3 parts and reassemble.
Here is the first page of Episode three of Phileas; Adventurer - a fun little story that I basically make up as I go for pure pleasure.

DON'T BLINK!
Blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back. Don't look away,
and don't blink.
and don't blink.
Whatever you do, don't blink. GOOD LUCK!
