 DARK AVENGERS 178 OUT TODAY!



Yep, issue 178 of DARK AVENGERS is out today. This is my final issue on the book that's been my home for the past 2 years.

I guess it's kinda fitting that I shared art duties with Kev Walker who set the bar each and every time he handed in new work. Huge thanks to Jeff Parker, who helped get me on the book in the first place, and delivered me enteraining script after entertaining script. More thanks to Frank Martin Jr, who made my work look so bloody appealing with his great colour work. Joe Caramagna also consistantly did a great job lettering the series. Last but not least, thanks to fellow Mick Stephen Thompson for helping me get this book in on time.

While I'm at it, I might as well thank you all who've supported me while on Thunderbolts/Dark Avengers. Hope you'll come follow me to VENOM.

MINIMUM CARNAGE



It was just announced about an hour ago at SDCC that my next issues of VENOM will be #26 (Cover by Patch Zircher above) and #27; which are part of the MINIMUM CARNAGE crossover with SCARLET SPIDER coming this October. They'll be my first issues with Cullen Bunn and I'm really looking forward to it. Cullen and Chris Yost speak more about it here.

BATMAN!


Been working away on this piece for the last few days. I've been tipping away on a coloured version but to be honest, I'm just waiting on Jordie to wrap up her Doctor Strange book so she can make it look all pretty.

VENOM #22 FINISHED



I handed in my first issue of Venom last night. It's the first chance I've had to work with Rick Remender. Considering how much I loved working on this issue, I certainly hope it's not the last.

Here's a little WIP peek.
