the albatross, now available digitally!

My new comic is here, in digital form at least! The print version will come in a month or so, but for now you can download a copy of The Albatross for $1 on Gumroad. Grab a copy and pop it on your computer, iPad, or whatever other device you have that can read PDFs!

Description from Gumroad:

When The Albatross comes to town, it’s rarely for something as innocent as a handshake or a friendly pint at the saloon. Find out what he wants with one of his greatest idols in THE ALBATROSS, a high-flying standalone story told in 28 pages.

Whooooaaaa, things have been busy lately! I check on the blog regularly, and it’s been tough to resist posting some of the stuff I’ve been working on, but I must! In lieu of actual content today, I thought I’d at least let you know that there’s some fun on the very near horizon.

First, I’ll be switching things up soon with a review of the latest movie from Kojiro Abe, AKA Jules Carrozza, Alison in Wonderland. It’s his first feature, and he’s been a long-time subject of this blog in both its current and previous incarnations, so i’ve been meaning to get my thoughts up on that. Much like the rabbit, I’M LATE.

I just finished up my second mini-comic after Slime (there are a few copies left of that!), so I’m hoping to get that printed and out in the wild sometime in early October. I still have to tone the pages and lay it out, but I recently shared a rough B&W version of the cover on Twitter and Instagram.

Also, in the interest of having more regular content for YOU, I’ll be starting a new webcomic soon. It’s going to be full-color and packed with action and jokes, but I’m not ready to formally announce it yet. Right now I’m in the process of finishing pages in advance so I’ll be able to keep consistent. I’ll just say you’ve seen the characters on the blog before…

I know I said I was going to practice all-digital more, but doing the Castlevania comic had me hankering to draw on paper. I ended up doing all of this one straight to ink with a brush pen on Tuesday night, then I added text with a pen the next day, scanned it in, and did the toning in Manga Studio.
