The Power of Sequential Art
I've been sporadically creating comic book stories since the late 1980s. My work is a mish-mash of satire, horror, romance and crime fiction. Unless otherwise noted, all listed works are (a) complete, one-shot stories that are (b) prepped for professional printing, and (c) written and drawn by me. Each PDF file contains the entire story for online and printed viewing.
