I've been given the battle pug sticker by one of the teachers in the CCA. he looked at my art work and thought it was good! I didn't get his name but i'm looking forward to reading this!

Could I do a cross stitchΒ of the Apocalyptic Pug that Loopydave createdΒ so I can put this on the wall in my sewing room? IΒ came acrossΒ this picture on facebook and having a pug, and loving True Blood, The Walking Dead (the guy with the patch reminds me of the governor) and Grimm, it was the perfect piece worth devoting the next 6 month to a year stitching.Β  I didn't want to assume that I could just do it.Β I checked with Dave and he didn't mind but said technically I should check with you.

Thanks!

I'm glad I got to meet you this last weekend at Planet Comicon and get familiar with your work. You earned yourself a fan who will spend more money (cuz you were a real sport in drawing me that sketch)! Yay!

Hey Mike, just wanted to say how awesome the Battle Pug pages are, they look like traditional inks and make me really want to try out Manga Studio. I think we met a few years back through Mike Bear who I went to school with. Keep up the good work

Hey. Complete amateur here so clearly take my comments with a large grain of salt.

I was looking at Youth in Revolt pages and Battle Pug pages today. The styles look different and I find myself preferring the Battle Pug style more. Stronger blacks, a little cartoonier, a little more fun.

I know Marvel and DC appear to be pursuing more realistic styles but I find it a shame because I'd love to see a more Battle Pugish feel to your superhero stuff.

If my observations are clueless feel free to ignore me. Thanks for reading my babble (presuming you read this).

Hey Mike!
I want to firstly thank you for your work on the Young Justice comics. I found out about the show and thought I'd check out the comics since they seemed to have an interesting storyline and the cover art looked phenomenal. The characters in the comics art looked and appeared so wonderfully lively and colourful. These Young Justice comics were the first comics I've really actually read and owned. This comic acted as a my kick-off into the comic book world. So far I've been getting every issue when they come out. I was most excited for issue 5 since the cover art and story looked especially good- but I found myself somewhat disappointed the moment I opened the cover. The art style had made a drastic (in my case) turn for the worse. I found myself a bit let down. The lines had been thickened and characters became so blocky for a large large majority of the pages/panels. I hoped it was just a small fluke in the art but issue 6 came out the same way. What I'm getting at is I hope the art change isn't because your rushing it and I greatly hope you haven't lost an overall interest and that you simply aren't trying as hard. I know Young Justice is more of a 'childs' comic but that doesn't mean you can't go full out in the art. I just wanted to put my input in regarding the change in style and am thoroughly hoping (sorta begging in my most dignified manner) that you will go back to the previous style in the first 5 issues.
Thanks again

Thanks so much for your support of my work. As to why the art on 5 and six look so different, It's because I didn't draw them. #4 was my last issue of Young Justice, unfortunately. I've moved on to drawing some other comics. I really enjoyed drawing the book, though. I'm glad you liked it. Sorry I could do more!

Mike

GAH!
Uhhhhhh. I thought it might be a different artist but I wasn' t sure. -.-'
That's a real shame. You did a great job drawing them- wish you still did. Are you still doing the covers?... because the issue #5/6 covers looked like your art. Its okay. And do you know who teh new artist is for issues 5/6 + ?
