Atomic Pulp Comics Are Coming!

Posted on by

I would by THAT comic in a second!  Of course, I’m a huge fan of Rick Burchett’s art, but the mock-up cover Chris Mills designed just (no pun intended) screams that this will be a fun comic.  Although it is just a mock-up, Mills has announced some very interesting and exciting news.  Take it away, Chris…

I’m currently planning a line of action-adventure comics featuring my own versions of some old, public domain comic book heroes. My goal is to take characters from the 1940s and re-invent them in a 1970s-1980s style — which was my favorite era of comics.

Chris currently has plans for two on-going titles: Space Crusaders and Sleuth Comics with a third title, Savage Sagas, being a one-shot.

This is exciting news and something I hope you’ll consider supporting.  I know I will.

Check out Chris’ site for full details.

A New (Old) “Cobra” Watercolor by Thomas Boatwright!

Posted on by

This is the first Cobra piece I ever received from Thomas Boatwright .  He did it for me several years ago, but somehow I missed scanning and getting it posted.

Over the years I’ve gotten several Stallone pieces from Thomas.  Click on the link to see what has been posted so far… there are more to come.

If you’d like to see more of Thomas Boatwright’s art check out his blog and his DA site. Send him some love.

If you get commissions, you should consider a piece from Thomas. He keeps you totally in the loop on his progress, finishes his commissions on or ahead of schedule, has very reasonable prices, is a fantastic artist and always gives you more than you’re expecting!   – Craig

Mike Zeck Cover Variant for The Punisher #1 Relaunch!

Posted on by

Mike Zeck’s Punisher art above will be a variant cover for Marvel’s relaunch of The Punisher…

“We’re going to get back to Frank Castle with a handgun and a knife, stalking the streets of New York, and getting his hands dirty. But we’re also going to see a man who has changed from his time in the armor,” said Rosenberg. “He developed a taste for bigger game and larger targets, and he’s not going to give that up easily. So in a sense it’s back to basics – but on a bigger scale.”

Seth Damoose Interview!

Posted on by

I’ve been a Seth Damoose fan since I first saw his art.  There’s a joy to everything Seth draws. You can imagine how thrilled I was to get Seth’s riff on Jack Carter and John Wick.  

Matt O’Keefe of The Beat recently conducted a short interview with Seth which you can check out here.

You can see more of Seth Damoose’s art at his Facebook page, his Art of Damoose page, or follow him on Twitter.
