I'm certain that you haven't been online in a while (I think). Nonetheless, I feel that it goes without saying that your artwork is so clean, on-model, and overall good, it's almost sickening. Keep doing what you do, man. ππ

Did you got the chance to watch Season 5 of Samurai Jack? Will you make more pieces of art related to the series? I'll love to see Scaramouche; The Daughters of Aku, including Ashi and the Samurai, wearing the armor that he used in the first two episodes. That was.....GLORIOUS!

First of all, I'm sorry for what it's happening in your family. Second, now that Samurai Jack, Season 5, makes its debut on Adult Swim (already two episodes were aired), what it's your thoughts on this new story arc? Anything to say about the "Daughters of Aku"?
That will be all.Β

Your work is absolutely awesome. All my animated tv favorites are in your gallery along with "Nerds" which my son and I enjoy reading together. Way too cool.

It's so cool to see you doing the art for a Jack comic again! I love your covers for all the TPBs! The Action Pack stories were good too but it's great to see your work on a full-length issue of Jack

Thank you. It was nice to get back in the saddle...

Dude you got back in the saddle and RODE that horse!! Your issue was one of the best yet, visually speaking. Andy Suriano is amazing too but your style is clean and precise and really looked like little screenshots from the series rather than just a comic version of it. Not to mention the composition was crazy!!
If Suriano ever needs to take another break I really hope they call you back to do more Jack. Cause man...you are great.

Yes, it was very wrong of you not to have found me until now. I blame it on your heroin addiction. Get help, my boy.
