Three from Pronto

OK Kids, here is my latest comic from Pronto Comics, it is a B&W short entitled Perceptions, with art from David Quiles!

It joins my other two Pronto Comics, Hot Girl & Totally Hot Girl, and First In Flight (the story of Gustave Whitehead). I’m really very excited about this comic especially as it has now joined my other two books (alongside the rest of the Pronto line) up on IndyPlanet.com.

10 down two Belkis to go!

Yep, it is November in Belkis as we explore the second-to-last month is one of the most enchantingly beautiful women on the planet.

This month, her image is brought to us by the powerful pen of David Quiles, who is an independent comicbook artist and publisher. David produces some seriously bad-ass art comic art! He is associated with (our friends) the nut-jobs over Crazee Comics. His amazing work tends towards underground comicbook themes, where he works the whole bag as publisher, illustrator, designer, and creator. You can always find David on the NY-Tri-State convention circuit illustrating and performing his many commissions. His work can not only be found on ebay, but also at Infiniteline Comics, his MySpace page, and his ComicSpace page. In addition to his work in this calendar he is available for all types of commissions.

David can also be found at comicbook shows around the NY area, and should be looked up whenever you have the chance. If you are still interested in acquiring NovaStar Studios, Fantasy Art Calendar (featuring Belkis), you can contact James Rodriguez (who put the whole thing together) over at his site, and while you are there, ask him about his up-coming sci-fi comicbook.

Choice Cuts

So, While I was in Boston a couple of weeks back, I ran into a buddy of mine, David Quiles. I was originally introduced to David by CAG president Keith Murphey. David and I hit it off right away and soon after I picked up one of David’s self-published titles.

David has a very interesting style of art. He likes to get dirty. His art is all full of action, movement violence and darkness. It is truly something to behold. I knew right away that I wanted to collaborate with David on something, only he and I couldn’t quite hit on the right project. Well, it took almost a year, but I finally conceived on an idea that I thought that David would like, and when I pitched it to him he rolled it around in his head for a bit,and really warmed to the idea.

Well, it took me a couple of more months to script out my eight-page idea, and pass it over to him. Well, David is not someone who is going to be rushed, and I had no intention of trying to rush him, so I walked away and let the story simmer with him. Every couple or three months when I would run into him I’d check on the progress and he would have pretty much the same answer, that he was working on it in-between the other things that he was doing, and that was OK with me.

Well I ran into him again last weekend at the Nationals, and he told me that he had not only thumb-nailed the story (which he had expanded to 12 pages), but that he would send me the thumbnails if I texted him at 1:00 in the morning. (Seems he would be working at that that time, just as I was going to bed). I agreed, and sent him a couple of text messages as I went off to bed, and well, this evening I found the art in my in basket.

Let me say that I wasn't disappointed at all with what I saw. this is going to be a great story (due mostly to David’s art, to be sure). I’m hoping that he will be able to finish it off soon, and then get it into print. In the mean time, I think that you should hurry over to David’s site, and check out Choice Cuts along with the other comics that he had produced.
