After finally reaching a breathing point after months-worth of deadlines (could be the eye of the storm, mind you) I finally took the chance to get back to some illustration work. Here’s the new cover of my soon-to-be-launched comic (co-written with Nikil Saval), Hard Hats. For more info, go to the Hard Hats page.
Yet another busy week, though I’ve managed to claw some hours back to sit down at my drawing board and hammer out some more hardhats pages. What is Hardhats, you ask? It’s my graphic novel about the May 1970 NYC riots led by construction workers who were protesting against the rising anti-war student movement/New Left. Check out the Hardhats page for more info. Why is that the longer pause between pages, the more hatching and detail you put down on the said pages? Above is a sneak preview of a sample panel from Hardhats, which I’m 3 pages away from completing the first part of, including a brand new prologue.
Voila, the cover to the Honduran Coup comic, destined for the printers later this month. News, non-lethal weapons and Hillary Clinton in Honduras below.
I’ve decided to change things up from the Chile strip, which -fear not- will be continued shortly, to showcase a new piece I’ve been working on with my good friend and co-conspirator Nikil Saval about the riots that hit New York in May, 1970. Before you ask, yes it is a coincidence that both comics happen around the same time – no idea why I’m drawn to this specific period at the moment. My challenge is to upload a page every other day for the next month, though that could be more or less, depending on what makes it into the final cut (which is still being hastily revised).
Like Chile, this is all based on real events, though I won’t spoil too much by giving you the schpiel now. Sit back and enjoy! Chile pages for the end of the prologue are on their way also, then I’ll post the entire Chile strip in the proper order as a more webreader-friendly issuu file.
