After making my dream happen in Los Angeles becoming a storyboard artist and a comics educator, you can imagine how excited I was to hear that my small-town high school back in New Jersey was hosting its own comic con... Now, having returned to the east coast, it's quite easily become one of my favorite shows to attend.
Catch me and twenty years of self-publishing at Phillipsburg Comic-Con @pburgcomiccon - May 9th 2026~!
Don't be afraid to know that softcovers of 'Castle Dracula & Dungeon: Employee Handbook Illustrated' are now back in stock at Bombshell-Comics.com !...

The mechanism of comics... separates the art form from any other storytelling device.
I am in continual belief that two experiences (and probably more) lie within the experience of a comic story - one of course, is to tell the tale of a narrative and the other, allows the reader an immersive EXPERIENCE.
Just like the Wildwood tramcar, I wanted to create an experience that simulated everything I could about being aboard.
Call me an outsider... call me fringe... but there's no other body of work that I would rather be creating.
Pre-order for 'Flag Me Down: The Story of Wildwood's Tramcar' is coming soon.

Twenty years ago, as a junior year Resident Assistant studying Studio Art and living in Oak Hall @rowanuniversity , I decided to start self-publishing.
The poster here - An exterior view of Oak Hall (My room has the arrow) was actually something that I had found in those years at Westby Hall - the art department building ( @rowanvisualarts / @rowanuarts ) there at Rowan...
Little did I know that a poster left between two dusty light box machines in the print-making room would still hold a significance all these years... but it does.
A big thank you to all of you who have been on this journey with me.
"Glassboro - A place to begin."

Extend your summer vacation with reading, 'The Wildwood Days of Doo Wop' (2021) and explore over 175 motels in a graphic novel experience of Americana and mid-century motel architecture that will take you further out than the Atlantic Ocean can!
These two 1964 gems are still with us - Pan American's rotating sign was still spinning beside the ocean this summer, and the red horse was still looking out on Sunset Lake.

Telling the story of the "King of The Boards" starts with Sebastian B. Ramagosa's magnificent journey from hotel waiter to dance marathon promoter to ocean boardwalk tycoon. His time here on Earth was sadly cut short at the age of 56 when his family would take over handling over 70 businesses in Wildwood, New Jersey for the next several decades... including Wildwood's tramcar.
A historic in-depth look at Wildwood's 'Sightseer' tram car, comes to be in 'Flag Me Down: The Story of Wildwood's Tramcar' - A graphic novel ride told through the subtle changes of a passing fleet while capturing the significant riders who have flagged down the tramcar within its 76 years of operation.
A hopeful Summer 2026 release with a pre-order coming soon.
