THRILL SEEKER COMICS™: Coming up for air with an observation
I finished up this evening some of the online comic strips. Right now, I'm getting to the end of January's artwork. I work on those comics strips on Wednesday and Thursday evenings mainly. The rest of the week and weekends, I'm working on the upcoming THRILL SEEKER COMICS ANTHOLOGY comic books. I think this is the busiest I've been drawing comics and I'm having fun. A few years back, I bought a Wacom Cintiq Pro touch monitor screen that I draw directly upon with a digital pen. I have all sorts of digital brushes to use. My "go to" pen is the Milton Caniff inker pen based on the style of the TERRY AND THE PIRATES, STEVE CANYON, and MALE CALL writer/artist who inspired me to do these comic strips. Again, I'm having a good time doing these. I wish it could be my full-time job but this is my side hustle hobby that I do for the love of it. Jack Kirby was right that working in comics will break your heart, but I'm scratching that creative itch. I hope those of you that are choosing to read my comics strips and pick up my comic book are enjoying them.
Let me know if you are and your comments could end up in my next letter column in issue #2.
Thanks and ALL THE BEST!
