The panel above is from a two page comic I have in Dale Martin’s latest anthology book: Watusi’s Doghouse Funhouse #2. It’s a 48-page black & white digest with full-color covers and is available by mail for $7.00 postpaid from Dale Martin himself. My comic for the anthology is a short whimsical tale about books. I created this comic way back in 2010, but it’s now just seeing print for the first time. (I also had some work in the first edition of this anthology as well.)

Watusi And The Emerald Serpent Back-Cover
This is an illustration I drew for one of the back-covers in a new mini-comic collection by Dale Martin, available for purchase here. In the story-line the dog Watusi discovers that he inherited an emerald mine. This gave me an idea to reference the great cartoonist Carl Barks. I must say I had a ball drawing this for Dale–it’s always a treat to draw Watusi whenever I get the chance. [Note: This post is backdated. Image was posted on this blog 03-01-18.]
Syndicate Product #20
I created the cover for the newly released Syndicate Product 20 / The Meta-Comics Issue. The zine is an anthology of essays, stories, and comics about comics. A.J. Michel, the editor of the zine, ran a successful kickstarter campaign a while back to raise money for printing the book. You can buy the issue in the Syncidate Product Esty Shop.
HIVE Comics Anthology #5
The above panel is from a 3 pager I have in Hive Comics Anthology #5. Grimalkin Press has been doing some interesting anthologies these last few years, so I feel privileged to be in this collection. You can order a copy of the book in their online store.

Clean Anthology
The panel above is from a one page comic I have in A.J. Michel’s new Syndicate Product #15. It’s a zine anthology based around the theme of “coming clean.” The anthology features a whole bunch of cool zine and comic creators. You can pick up a copy through A.J.’s Etsy page.
Charles Atlas has a posse
I have a couple of comic strips in T. Motley’s latest mini comic, True Fiction #8. The whole issue is devoted to various artists re-imagining the classic Charles Atlas ad “The insult that made a man out of mac.” My two variations are one from the bully’s point of view (a panel shown above) and a widescreen version. You can see some samples from the book on T. Motley’s blog, or get the comic at the Squidwork’s shop online.
Sugar Needle illustration
I’ve got an illustration inside the recently released zine Sugar Needle #34. If you have a sweet tooth and like scouring the market aisles for strange and unusual candy, you’ll love this zine. You can get a copy for $2 at this address: Sugar Needle, PO Box 66835, Portland, OR 97290.
Watusi’s Doghouse Funhouse
