A labor of love by the Comic Geek Speak co-founders & its community, Comics NOW! is a magazine made “For the Comic Book Fans By the Comic Book Fans”. It will feature in-depth articles on comic book and comic book related topics, and many other features that should set it apart from all other pop culture related publications in print. The premier issue will also feature my rendition of Marvel’s Nova rendering as the cover art and enclose several pages inside that reveals the cover art development in stages.
So what ya waiting for? Go get your copies NOW! 🙂
Dallas Comic Con… it’s a small size, family environment convention that usually serves as an “excuse” for me to be able to go out of town and hang out with a group of guys. Not only a chance to spend some needed time with my homie Shawn Ormes, and the Half Hour Wasted hosts Brad Milyo and Frank Rincon. I was planning on doing some 50 cent bin diving and meeting a few comic book celebrities such as Steve Niles, Terry Moore, Tim Bradstreet, Bob Layton, Cully Hamner, Scott Kurtz, etc. The show was a blast and getting to meet fellow HHW listener Bob Heine was great too.
What I did not know was that on Saturday evening I would be given the honor of getting to know better the comic legend himself – Bob Layton! Not only was Bob generous enough to spare his time to critic my portfolio but gave us (Shawn, Brad, Frank, and I) a chance to dine with him and his assistant, the fabulous Sorah Suhng, at the Korea House restaurant that evening. To top it off, my lovely wife Krista joined us later that evening.
Well, today marked the day! It was my long-awaited Naturalization ceremony, during which I officially became a U.S. Citizen! It was 1985 since we left my birthplace of South Korea… and it truly has been a long road! I have so much to be thankful for… and so many people to thank that made this possible. Many of you that have commissioned me for artworks have played a part in my accumulating the necessary funds to pay for the process. THANK YOU. This is a happy day!
I am opening the last list for commission for ’07. I am also offering a significant discount from my regular rates… So if you were considering a commission from me and also wish to qualify for the free commission giveaway contest, this is the perfect time to do so.

Alright, a few of the fellow posters from Comic Geek Speak forum took up the challenge. For a while, pocosong seemed to be the only one that making any real gain… it seems though even he was bitten by the lack-of-time bug. Out of no where, a DC colorist jumped in and rose to the occasion. His name? Allen. aka angryf. aka graphics84. His site? http://www.angryf.com. In his blog, he showcases the color image that he knocked out of the park.
Here’s the preview of the image in its full color glory! (Click on the image to launch a larger image)
Robert Kirkman’s Invincible script! With Ryan Ottley as the judge! I did enjoy how loose Kirkman’s script was. Here is what thread on Comic Book Resources forum with my submissions. You can follow up on some reactions and critics from the other Play-at-Homers.
