Fort Dudak’s Six Pack #4 on sale!

My (FIRST FULL COLOR) comic, “Fort Dudak’s Six Pack #4” is NOW available on ComiXology Submit! Be sure to check it out!  http://bit.ly/1OqXEFM

This one is titled “on Fitness” and is ostensibly advice and motivation about getting and living fit.  Also, still improvised daily (hah! hardly…) comix on whatever I happen to be thinking about.

Also, I am currently working on page #9 of The Pizza Guy with a hopeful release of January 2016.  But that’s being overly optimistic.  Now, if I were doing this FULL TIME, then for sure.  But as it is, no.

Here’s some crummy iPhone pix of page 7, showing how “the sausage” is sometimes made. First, the page as inked; note a text box at top and a fair amount of blank space for text to be inserted later:

TPG 3 PG 7

Next, the same page with tracing paper overlay of more text/caption boxes.  I do this when I want the option of being able to shift text around completed artwork, resizing as I see fit.  Note how the the last panel’s captions are too big for the art.  Photopshop will fix that right up!

Thanks for reading comix!

Free Pages of The Pizza Guy #1

TPG 1 and TPG2 are for sale on DriveThruComics (you need an account to see my stuff there: to save myself future headache, I marked all my comix as “17+” although I would read the heck out of my comics at the age of 14) and are coming soon to ComiXology.  Here are some preview pages for you (and the good folks at Short Run and other potential Comics Shows)

Bible Stories That Don’t Suck

Way, way back in 1994, my cohort Sam Battin and I put together our very first comicbook.  It was a foldover xerox affair, a minicomic or zine-sized B&W called:

SPIDERS IN THE OINTMENT

No idea which of us came up with that title or why.  In my philosophy, absurd things need no justification other than that they make one smile, snigger, of guffaw in wonder.  I’m guessing that when we we’re 23 and high on life, this probably did.

So, Sam did one comic, I did one, and we collaborated on the third with him as writer and me as drawer.  The one that I did was called Bible Stories That Don’t Suck, and I have scanned in a few panels, cleaned them up a bit, and present some to you here.  I won’t put up the whole thing for the sake of our individual mystiques, to shroud our past in a savory effluvium of curiosity, figuratively.  Maybe someday, somewhere, someone will dig that thing up and present it at our 50th anniversary retrospective art show, if the world lasts that long.

The reason I’m doing this is because I found much better content on the same story from the Bible, on youtube.  A motion comic, I guess.  It’s really enjoyable, and totally NOT SAFE FOR WORK.  I feel like I shouldn’t have to warn you as I think you’re safest assuming all my work is NSFW because fuckity fucking fuck-a-duck, you dicks.  🙂

Lovin’
