The English summer - that perfect season - is at last upon us, and today in my Inbox I found these things:



From a new batch of Adam in Chromaland pages from Luigi di Giammarino. This isn't even the best or most spectacular page but, crucially, it is the page with the giant dinosaurs.



From my LA detective noir project The Queen of Spades, also with a French publisher. These are the try-out sketches of a new artist. The character he's drawn, Horatio Alvarez, is a riff on Horatio Alger, the American dime-novelist who really created the fiction of the American Dream, writing hundreds of stories about down and out boys who made it to the top through hard work and merit. Or in Alvarez's case, hard work, merit, and proficency with edged weapons.



From Alem Curin's pencils for my one and only piece of Work For Hire - my piece "The Conformist", coming up in Dark Horse's Escapist series. Again, not even the best or most spectacular page Alem has done so far, but look at that page design...

I love my job. I open these pages up in email, and I've a grin a mile wide, seeing them and thinking, "I did that! That's my story! And look how pretty they made it!"
