Latest work


My Career

My first published comic story was back in 1990 with Antarctic Press. Since then I've been hired by other companies and celebs such as Hasbro, Vic Mignogna (the voice of Ed on Full Metal Alchemist), Guitar World Magazine, HarperCollins, Kenichi Sonoda (artist of Gunsmith Cats and Exaxxion), Playstation Magazine, Adam Warren, Slag Blah, Dark Horse- just to name a few. Even did a few seconds of folly voice work, along with my wife, Emily, on ADV's Aquarian Age 3 anime.

My recent work was through HarperCollins, titled Another Nastybook.

In the last five years my wife and I have been on the road and attending the many growing anime conventions, including the few general comic ones, twice overseas for Komiket, to self-promote our studio and works. Over those years we are honored to have met a lot of great attendies, fellow artists, industry guests and convention staff.

And this is the extent of my movie acting abilities.

My Mission

Currently I'm trying to get my webcomic going again. I'm doing some design work for a video game company. And, filling the rest of my plate, the many tiny personal projects that always seem to get put on the back burner when something better comes along.

In 2007 I'd like to take the next big step into self-producing animations.

My Influences

Tatsuo Yoshida, Hergé, Akira Toriyama, Katsuhiro Ôtomo, Juan Gimenez, Haruhiko Mikimoto, Hayao Miyazaki, Kenichi Sonoda, Shirow Masamune, Mita Ryuusuke, Tsukasa Kotobuki, Joe Madureira, Mine Yoshizaki...

My Policies

If and when asked I accept personal commissions, requests, or trades, I gingerly have to turn them down. Just too many sour experiences to make me wanna go back and do them again.

About Comic Space friends... It's rare that I actively search people to add on my friends list. I will, however, add just about anyone who'll want to add me to theirs, so there's no need to ask. If you enjoy the work, I'll definitely welcome you aboard.

Thank you very much for reading. I hope you'll enjoy any future work posted here.
