*_^ The last page of Jackket is penciled, and that means publication is just around the corner! Since the publication is so close, I will announce that Jackket will feature a brand new cover, but don't worry for those of you who like the original cover will be a limited edition. The first issue will also include a flip cover featuring the manga version of Jackket. More details about purchasing the comic will be available soon...

*_- We got to attend the Wizard World Texas convention this past weekend for the first time. I really enjoyed the show, and once Jackket is done hope to have a table there. Until then you can check out the photos section for some pictures taken at the show, enjoy!

*_- The preview has now been removed. A big Thank you to those of you who took the time to go and view the "Negative" Jackket Knightmare preview! I hope you all enjoyed the extra pages.

*_- A big thank you to everyone who came out to the Live Oaks show this weekend! Also to those I met and picked up the un-inked preview mini comic. Just letting you know as a special thank you for your purchase when the release of the "Negative" preview comes out mention what was drawn on the last page and you'll receive a 50 cent discount!

-_* Had another out of town weekend, this time for the Austin Collectables show. It was one of those quiet and slow weekends but I still enjoyed meeting a fellow artist and doing some art of my own.

-_* We had a great time up there in Plano, I met some great people, and some old friends. There were plenty of costumers, and lots of great celeb guests! I got to talk with James O'barr, and even get a pic with Anakin Skywalker from Ep 1.

-_* This week I got in a test copy of the preview, I was pretty pleased with the results, now I just have to finish the rest of it!
