I used to love those Marvel Masterworks Pin-Ups in the comics of the 60s-80s. So in the great Despop spirit ... I created a few versions of my own.

Rocket Surgeon Productions is officially representing Des Taylor's Comic Book IP Scarlett Couture for TV and Film.

The stunning @serenacosplay has just shown me some amazing photos of herself as the main character in my project collaboration with Disney's Robb Pratt

Robb has been working tirelessly on a fully animated intro to the comic project (with music scored by Paul Terry @cellarscape ) and now Eva Strongbird has been brought to life thanks to this very talented young lady.

Very excited for next year's launch now.

It's been a while since I posted on my blog page so I thought I'd come out the traps with a bit of fun for you all. Depicting some of my favourite 60's Marvel characters at a swanky party in New York ...and you're invited. Who would you like to hang out with? I'd love to be on Janet Van Dyne's table that's for sure. DRAMA!!!

Enjoy

This year, I'm looking to add to my portfolio with an anthology graphic novel (underway)  a new sketchbook and a brand new exhibition! I'm also looking to create an animation for my motion book THE BLUE LOTUS ADVENTURES.

Imagine ...re-telling the story of Wonder Woman, Elseworlds style, using the Egyptian gods.

That was on my mind when creating this piece. Big hint to those writers at DC. Would love to read something like that. Now... I'm off to bed.

Italian journalist Massimo Bargna contacted me in September for an interview on me ,my style, inspirations, projects and achievements for Italian music magazine "Suono". He tells me it's the longest article he has published for the magazine so it's safe to say they liked the idea.

Rina Martini (AKA Dirty Martini) is a character I created back in 2012 after a desire to do a story about a trashy but extremely intelligent P.I. investigating a murder cover-up in the backdrop of Hollywood sleaze. I put it on the shelf to concentrate on my projects THE TROUBLE WITH KATIE ROGERS, SCARLETT COUTURE and THE BLUE LOTUS.

RIP HH! A legend

that lived the dream.
