Let there be FUNK!

I thought you'd all like to see what's on my drawing board at the moment... so here's the first page from my upcoming DISCOTRONIC FUNK COMMANDOS! I'm really enjoying working on these characters again after so long, and also working under my own autonomy. I'm hoping that this will see print towards the end of the year.

So until then, enjoy the preview.... and let there be FUNK!

RIP Peter Falk... September 16, 1927 - June 23, 2011

Wow... two greats gone in one day. I've just heard the news that Peter Falk, best known around the world as the legendary but lovable Lieutenant Columbo has passed away at the age of 83. Peter's role as Columbo established him as a firm favourite... and is certainly one of TV's most famous and legendary detectives. I can imagine that had they had him on their respective show... CSIs Gil Grissom, Mac Taylor and Horatio Caine's jobs would have been a lot easier.

Never mind the wife.... I am a big fan. Rest in peace, Lieutenant... and thank you for the wonderful memories and years of entertainment.

RIP Gene Colan.... 1926 - 2011

Today the comics industry has lost another great... the legendary Gene Colan has passed away. Gene produced a huge amount of work for both Marvel Comics and DC Comics, but it his Marvel work on classics such as Daredevil, Captain America and especially Tomb Of Dracula that I'll always remember him for.

Rest in peace, Gene 'The Dean' Colan... and thank you for the many wonderful pieces of work that entertained myself and many a comic fan over your long, illustrious career. My thoughts and prayers go out to Gene's family and friends at this sad time.
