I launched a new web comic today. It’s called Darkness, and it was co-written by myself, Nicholas Brendon, and B.C. Thompson.
Here’s the opening image:
We have more plans for the story, but those of you who are our real fans get a bit of a sneak peak.
I’ll update with 6-10 panels per week.
So my favorite 3 comic artists in the universe (in order) are: 1) Dave McKean 2) Alex Maleev 3) Butch Guice.
I just posted page 14 (see the previous blog post on this site) from The State of Basilica on Alex Maleev’s message board and he asked to see it at higher resolution. Even if he starts to tell me how bad it sucks, the fact that he saw enough potential to ask to see it at a higher resolution is incredibly generous of him.
I also posted a high rez copy of page 15.

I’ve been drawing my web comic ‘The State of Basilica’ at the rate of 2 pages per week for the last 3 weeks.
The first goal of ‘Basilica’ is to tell this story I’ve had running around in my head for awhile.
The second goal of Basilica is to learn to draw using the techniques of Alex Maleev. Though I still have a long way to go, this is as close as I’ve gotten so far:
On Saturday I made an image for the band project I’m working on with long-time collaborator, Jim Cowart.
Jim and I have been working together since Middle School (off and on). When we were in High School we had an ongoing, good natured, joke about a wonderful friend of ours who could not pronounce the word ‘equitable’. This friend of ours is a great guy, and though we’ve lost touch, the background image is dedicated to you, William.
