Absolutely spectacular @mrriktus piece commissioned by my phenomenal better half @cara_carnage in celebration of my terrifying milestone. Don't I look badass? 😎 Absolutely blown away by this -- best gift ever! Thank you Cara for a once in a lifetime weekend and thank you Chris for making me look so cool 😜

Though it's been a sitting on ice for what seems like decades now, i'm absolutely thrilled to announce this latest release from @imagecomics is finally thawed and ready for you reading pleasure! Written and rendered by my longtime buddy and colleague @szymonkudranskiart (with letters by @dc_hopkins and edits by yours truly), No Man's Land is a haunting high-concept murder mystery that merges perilous political tension with creepy occultish trappings in a book that's guaranteed to make you shiver and shake to your very core! Taking place on the Diomedes Islands (two rocky outcrops located between Alaska and Siberia in the middle of the Bering Strait) during the height of the Cold War, the story follows the tense investigation of two government agents (one FBI, one KGB) after a body is discovered on the temporary ice bridge that joins these two warring superpowers. Szymon has excelled himself this time -- absolutely nailing the frosty desolation and overwhelming sense of isolation of the series setting, and reinforcing it with general sense of unfriendliness and unease. Think True Detective meets The Bridge -- it's a downright spine-tingling series that i'm so proud to have played a part in bringing to life. And just check out some of those beautiful variant covers! No Man's Land #1 is out now from @imagecomics #nomansland #onemanart #szymonkudranski #imagecomics #coldwar #truedetective #thebridge #comics #newcomics

This story alone has sold me on collecting Heavy Metal mags and I'm so excited to get more! Face Value from @flopscomics @atomic_editorial and @popculturehound is gorgeously revolting and I'm all here for it 🥰

Huge, huge, HUGE congrats to @changsheng1221 for the double @eisnerawards nom for Yan V1-2 ( grab it now from @titanmangahq )! Cannot wait for the next round of this stupendous series! It's gonna be a beast! #yan #eisner #manga #changsheng

Got to letter this fun little neon dystopian short from @flopscomics the other week -- out now in @heavymetal #5... ...and it's FRICKIN' GORGEOUS! Thanks @popculturehound for making "Face Value" happen! #heavymetalmagazine #scifi #flops #comics

A couple more shuddersome pages from Dream Theater: Parasomnia from @z2comics This time it's Dead Asleep -- a touching tale of undersea terror by @cubanmissiledh and @damienworm Damien kills it as per usual with his scratchy, skin-crawling style, and it was a blast getting to letter his pages again after so many years. #comicslettering #dreamtheater #horror #comics #z2comics

Sword Slayer by @ironagecomics written and co-created by yours truly art by and co-created by @minombreesfernandopinto is coming to @kickstarter soon! For years Lukas and Zak protected the cosmos of the universe always selflessly putting forth the needs of others as was their destiny as a duo. Life was good until one day the pressures of being the universe’s greatest protector caused Lukas to drop Zak, a fate worse than death, and flee the spotlight. Now many years later the very Center of the Universe is under attack and once again only its true protectors can save it, they just have to forgive one another. A far more difficult challenge. #scifi #swords #kickstarter #indiecomics

A few pages from Are We Dreaming? by the esteemed @_vajra and rockyobk -- featured in Dream Theatre: Parasomnia from @z2comics It's a trippy, feverish, thought-provoking ride as befitting its creators' wheelhouses and wildly different from my usual lettering gigs. Rocky's painterly stained-glass style is so unique, and I loved the comix nods and rubber hose references. #dreamtheatre #comics #comicslettering #z2comics #surreal

Check out this GORGEOUS edition of Mayhem Manor - A Haunted High-On Adventure -- a pee-your-pants hilarious graphic novel release from horror hip-hop duo @officialtwiztid and @z2comics This was a laugh riot to work on. Written by @ryanjdowney_ and illustrated by @maripescosta (with letters from me and beautiful cover art from @ed.repka.illustration ), it's a spooky stoner mystery starring everyone's favorite Demented Duo -- think Scooby Doo meets Cheech and Chong. The deluxe version is a supersized 12x12 slipcased beast, and comes with art prints and read-along soundtrack on 12" lime green vinyl record. Really quality production value here from Z2! #twiztid #comics #comicslettering #horror #hiphop

Today, the mailbox brought me the shiny new No Man's Land TPB from @szymonkudranskiart Beautiful stuff! Szymon really outdid himself with this book in all respects. It's perfect for the big screen and probably my favourite ONE MAN ART release so far. A privilege to work on! Out April 22nd from @imagecomics #nomansland #imagecomics #comics #szymonkudranski #crime

Yan by @changsheng1221 reaches its explosive conclusion in this third and final volume from @titanmangahq next month, and i'm a little sad it's all come to an end. This series has been a ride from start to finish, and a lot of fun to work on. It's really the whole package -- kinetic artwork with a cinematic feel, nuanced characters with novel powers and backstories, and a genre-bending plot that'll have you on the edge of your sleep. A highly recommended read! Out May 12th from @titanmangahq #manga #mangalettering #yan #comics #titan

A quick glimpse at 'A Broken Man' from Parasomnia: The Graphic Album by @z2comics and @dreamtheaterofficial -- a harrowing tale of redemption by @wondermasons and @dblackanese with fiery artwork from @gianenrico_bonacorsi (and letters by me). Grab this gorgeous anthology while you can! #dreamtheater #z2comics #comicslettering #comics
