Hey everyone – hope you’re enjoying the Christmas/New Year’s intersession we’ve got going on right now. I sure am. Enough, in fact, that Christine Larsen and I are taking this week off from updating If You Get Close To Her, Kiss Her Once For Me.
Regularly scheduled updates will resume in 2011, at which point we’ll [...]

I’ve shown you page one of the story already. This is the last you’ll see here before it debuts in full next year.
The opening bits of this story — set in 1920s Hollywood — are designed to evoke credit/title sequences and movie lobby cards. This page, page 2 of the story, illustrates that well.

When I last posted about this story, I didn’t have an artist attached to it. Now, I’m happy to reveal, John Bivens, who previously drew Fitcher’s Bird and Se Perdre at Split Lip, is on board and cranking out terrific art.
John’s sending me new pages a couple times a week already, so I’m pretty certain [...]

I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to tell you that an upcoming Split Lip story will be drawn by David Hitchcock, the brilliant UK horror artist best known for Whitechapel Freak and Springheeled Jack.
Given’s David’s historical interests, I had to give him a story set in the past – that’s what “A Mother’s [...]

I’m not quite sure why, but when I write a script that’s influenced by, or attempts to be my version of, an Asian ghost story, I think of Doug Draper. Maybe it’s the delicacy of his lines, his soft brushwork, or the sense of time and place his work conveys.

The concluding volume of the action/romance about a guy who must defeat his love’s seven evil exes to win her. I was surprised to find I didn’t care too much about the love story; it was the fights and video game bits that were my favorites. Ah well, still a fun series.
