Hi, Folks!
In case you are wondering why we have never gotten around to publishing “Johnny Saturn” no.s 7 and 8, there’s a pretty good reason: I haven’t finished coloring issue 7! And, without issue 7, we can’t publish no. 8 . . .
I’m not done with coloring issue 7, because there are still five interior pages that need my attention. But, I just finished issue 7′s cover, and (as far as I’m concerned) it’s a real beauty! Her you go!
Hi, Folks!
Today, for your enjoyment (and horror), a recent book cover I did for Coscom Entertainment. The book is an anthology titled “Dead Science.” Warning—this is not for the timid at heart!
This picture is pretty typical of the type of digital paintings I do, although I jumped a bunch of stylistic and technological hurdles on this one and got more sophisticated than I normally do. I’m not into zombies or gore, but I believe I outdid myself on this one.
I’m hard at work on another Coscom Entertainment cover, this one centered on werewolves.
Hi, Folks:
Consider this particular blog more a production blog, because I’ve got a lot of plates in the air at the moment.
Item: I’m working on next month’s big sale, which will involve new merchandise, digital downloads, and some free stuff. I had some technical issues to overcome, but now I’ve done so—Yay, me.
Item: The cover to issue seven is quite haunting—it surprises even me, and I drew it. Benita came up with the original concept, and then I took a symbolic twist on it. You know, I didn’t leave a space in the online archives for it! I’m not sure how I’m going to integrate it into the collected web strip…
Item: I’m working on a cover for a future Coscom book about zombies, and it’s coming along very well. I’m not sure if I’m going to show it off here or not, because I haven’t asked the editor/publisher for permission to do so yet. Maybe I will.

Item: The other night, I watched the animated “Batman: Gotham Knight” movie. It’s gritty and progressive in a way that reminded me of that animated Matrix movie. I was appropriately diverted, but at the same time I don’t feel the urge to go purchase a copy of my own. I still maintain that one the best Batman movies ever was the animated “Batman: Mask of the Phantasm.” I also like the Director’s cut “Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker.”
Item: Remember, I’m on Twitter now, and you can follow me at http://twitter.com/SStory. Twitter has been helpful in keeping track of people I know throughout the comic industry, and beyond, the way Myspace used to. I still have my Myspace page, but I think I’m going to repurpose it.
