Hey guys it has been a while since I have made a journal entry. Some exciting thing have been happening with my comic career. A few months ago I was picked up by Arcana comics. I completed my first book for them Death's Row it is kind of a Twilightzone horror book with a strange twist. Last month I started on a new graphic novel for Arcana Comics "Midnight to Daylight". It is a 110 page vampire book.  Don't worry all you vampire fans, we did the vampires justice in the book. The cool thing about Midnight to Daylight is that there is a story about the heros side and a story about the villains side of the story. I am illustrating the villains side Midnight and Martin Coccolo is illustrating the hero side Daylight. I have a few more projects in the works but I will not talk of them till there almost complete.

I have had romancing thoughts of being a comic artist as a kid and still do to a small degree. It is a good thing that I love to draw stories and am good at it because I am having to draw 5 to 8 pages penciled & inked every week to meet deadlines. This is hard to do with a full time job but somehow I make it work. 5 years ago I would not have been able to do it. I have also found that I work better when given hard deadlines. I invite the challenge and working fast seems to improve my skills. My goals are to illustrate stories that captures the reader to the point of intruding into there dreams. I will keep you posted then these book go on sale.

I always like to hear your thoughts and things that are happening in you guys world. So please keep me posted as well...

Just had to say, I was listening to music while perusing your gallery and your icon looked like it was singing.
Trivial, but it made my day.

If anyone has an original comic book they want reviewed for my magazine, we are starting a column called Comic Book Karma in which we help promote people who do independent comics and are trying to break into the mainstream. Just send a copy or link to dangrn77@hotmail.com,, if you are interested. Just make sure it's horror based or dark or strange in some way. We aren't really interested in traditional superhero comics. We cover more adult comics. www.surrealgrotesque.com
