Absolutely beautiful work... your perspective is fantastic. And that shot of Doomsday was beyond cool. Wonderful stuff!

[ Posted by robosborne on Jan 1st, 2007 11:23 AM ]... Of course I remember meeting you! I moved to Austin, Texas in August, and I will be back in town for the Phoenix Con at the end of January. Here's to making 2007 our best year yet!

Hey Gary, I see you are with the Actionopolis team. A friend of Shannon's is a friend of mine. Will you be at the Phoenix Con? Best of luck, and hopefully we'll cross paths soon!

[ Posted by garyreed on Dec 31st, 2006 11:29 AM ]... no plans on being at the Phoenix Con...I don't do a lot of shows and that one is a bit far away...continued success with your books, it looks as if you're doing well.

Any friend of Shannon's is a friend of mine. Hope I'll get to meet you soon. Will you be at the Phoenix Comicon?

[ Posted by robbo on Dec 30th, 2006 3:18 PM ]... Thanks, man. That Shannon's alright ain't he? Aside from the girlish giggle fits I mean. Sadly I probably won't be in the neighborhood for the Phoenix con. Would love to make it out one of these times.

[ Posted by bruceincolorado on Dec 29th, 2006 5:15 PM ]... Thanks man, as long as someone's reading my work - it keeps me going to do more! I'm sure you know exactly what I mean, right? By the way, your stuff sounds just like my entire family's taste - especially my teenage son. We'll definitely be picking up some of your books. Cheers!

Sorry, PATRICK. That was lame... and I promise I wasn't confusing you with the great thespian, Freddie Prinze, Jr.

Great work. Thanks for the links.

Freddie... beautiful work. I love the Centaur charging into the stream of arrows. I'm going to forward your portfolio to my friends at Wiz Kids. Nice work.

Your cover for Mr. Miracle is great. Congrats on all your success.

You guys produce some nice work. I'm going to check out your War of the Worlds series for sure.

[ Posted by jslewis to mikeexner3 on Dec 28th, 2006 10:37 PM ]...

good luck in your quest.

[ Posted by jslewis to johnraygun on Dec 28th, 2006 8:51 PM ]...

The splash page on your website is great. I really like the retro styling. Very nicely done.

[ Posted by jslewis to StazJohnson on Dec 28th, 2006 8:48 PM ]...

What an amazing portfolio. I really dig the Rhino shot busting through the brick wall. Good stuff!

[ Posted by jslewis to smashoutcomics on Dec 28th, 2006 8:46 PM ]...

The art on your myspace.com site is really cool. Nicely done.

You have a very unique style. Cool stuff!

[ Posted by jslewis to metrohero on Dec 28th, 2006 6:46 PM ]...

I'll have to check it out. I'll be on tour in L.A. in February, and spend a lot of time in San Diego, as it's just a short jaunt from Phoenix. What part of Cali is your store? I've not heard of the city.

[ Posted by jslewis to davidarodriguez on Dec 28th, 2006 6:45 PM ]...

Do you have a link for some of your work? I'd love to see it. Good luck.

[ Posted by jslewis to StevenGriffin on Dec 28th, 2006 6:44 PM ]...

Hilarious opening line on your bio. Good stuff. I'll have to check out your work.

[ Posted by jslewis to jayramos on Dec 28th, 2006 6:43 PM ]...

Good to meet you. I'll look for your work.

[ Posted by jslewis to KieronGillen on Dec 28th, 2006 6:42 PM ]...

Good to meet you. Anything likened to HIGH FIDELITY is okay by me.

[ Posted by jslewis to Karl_Story on Dec 28th, 2006 3:24 PM ]...

Very nice portfolio. And anyone with a Hellboy reference in their mug shot is okay by me.

[ Posted by jslewis to ericb_tcr on Dec 28th, 2006 3:20 PM ]...

Cool site. Glad you're here.

[ Posted by jslewis to Salgood_Sam on Dec 28th, 2006 12:14 PM ]...

The Planet of the Apes stuff is very cool. Do you remember the Saturday morning cartoon? I also had the lunch box... sadly it was lost, along with my original General Urus.
