The Wrath of John - Airwreck 2000 (aug07)

This is a preview for the 13-page story Nick the Saint & I collaborated on. He graciously allowed me to re-envision his script, which has allowed me to have more fun than should be legal ;)

Slugs Noir Preview (jul07)

Written by Kaltrop, drawn by me, this is the first page of a nine-page Part One of a multi-chapter story. I'm hoping it's good enough to see the light of publishing day.

Metapatriot (mar07)

Ultimate Comics Group sent me these pages of Daniel White's pencils for me to ink as a test. I reluctantly turned down the job offer (no American work visa). I must save my volunteering for labours of love ;) This logo isn't the official MP logo.

City For a Dime (jan07)

Amanda Robertson, the writer of this story, & I hope City For a Dime gets published. Presented here is a small excerpt from the 2-page tale. UPDATE: It was published in the 2007 small town/BIG CITY anthology from Young American Comics! YAY!

Ricardo in Heart's Desire (dec06)

The Ricardo character was created, originally drawn & web-published by Esmeralda Rupp-Spangle, inspired by Saint Amaimon. A couple of people have web-published their takes on Ricardo, and this one is mine. Esmeralda gave it a good review.

Cocoa the Clown in Cocoa vs. Death Dog Dollah Ninee-Nine (oct06)

Cocoa the Clown was created, originally drawn & web-published by Saint Amaimon. Many have interpreted Cocoa in a variety of styles. This story was written by Klaproth, who seemed to dig my interpretation. The finished strip is here.

Thanks. Could't figure out whether or not people would find it provocing. But actually I didn't care :)

Yes....I was with my dad and drank so fucking much that my dad forced me to stay one day with no Alchohol. That was the least favorite day in Canada. I drank a shitload of Molsens.

I am way down to send you a story that is short. I am pretty busy with my bullshit day job (which might fire me) getting married in may and working with my current artist on my comic. But yeah I am down. I have tons of shit. I write long though so I will have to work on something short.

[ Posted by wbm on Feb 18th, 2007 6:58 PM ]... So, you're a writer but not an artist? Where can I check some of your writing, and what kind of art do you dig?

[ Posted by R_Henry on Feb 26th, 2007 9:03 PM ]... Sorry it took me so long to reply.....Good Question (you asked what kind of art I dig)....Well I don't know. I love all art with the exceptions of Stick figures which is all I can draw. As far as checking out my writting; I don't have a real site yet I am currently working on a graphic novel/comic book with an artist (who isn't) as well as a screenplay, a few short stories, and have written bits and pieces of a novel. How bout you? What you doing? You are a artist and a writer, and muscian. And Canadian!! Hey hosier. LOL I love Canda. I went fishing there with my pops in Ontairo Lake of the woods. Lots of fun. Well anyways I shut up now later.

I'm doing fine, thank you very much!

You're right, no matter which way you interpret the word nuts, it's definitely something you don't want to read on a girl's panties. :D

Yeah, that's actually pretty cool. A click and a long conversation unfolds.
Well, I will get back to the drawings ...

Thanks. Still trying to break through with the comic. It's easy to drown in the ocean of online comics.

[ Posted by wbm on Feb 22nd, 2007 9:30 PM ]... Yeah, it's like how music started to overwhelm the net in the late 90s. I wish this comment strip had more than one tier of reply. I like how people can have entire conversations in a livejournal-type blog.

[ Posted by peepholetoinsanity on Feb 22nd, 2007 3:07 PM ]...

Yeah, that's right. Thank for for the comment :) Nice to have someone actually writing a comment instead of those "thanks for the add"-things.

I have just uploaded a comic to my archive. By the way. Another experiment that boiled in my head for too long.

[ Posted by wbm on Feb 22nd, 2007 4:19 PM ]... Tell me about it. For a site full of creative-types, there is a whole lotta generic response. I like your surrealness.

[ Posted by ultimatecomicsgroup on Feb 9th, 2007 11:19 AM ]...

William,
Thank you so much for the Add and your comments...
Your work by the way looks like AMAZING fun...
I got to tell you, in 1976 (Am I aging myself too much) the feeling I got when I opened a comic is not to far off to my feeling now with comics...I truly feel like Comics will always make me feel like a kid even though I am 40+ years old...
Ironically....I still remember the 2 comics I bought first...Amazing Spiderman 155 and Marvel Team-up 44...how is that for lifelong impace...
Anyway William...it's and honor to meet you too and thanks for saying HI!

[ Posted by wbm on Feb 10th, 2007 6:12 PM ]... It is fun ;) I left comic fandom for a number of years when I lost interest in superheroes & the urge to play guitar hit me. Then Miller's Sin City brought me back. Now, drawing makes me feel like I did when I discovered Spider-Man all those years ago. The first comic I remember buying was Hercules Limited Series #1. I read it so ragged that I can't remember if the cover is still attached ;)

in your picture, are you pressing play or record?
Thanks for the add.
