Coming out this June is the first comic book from 5Finity Productions called “Zombies vs. Cheerleaders”! I had the opportunity to draw one of the three main covers for issue #1, along with Jason Worthington and Jessica Hickman. Here’s the official write-up of the comic, and here’s the cover:

Oh, and this guy’s awesome:

Seasons Greetings to you!  May the new year be a productive and most awesome one for everybody!

Oh, and to get into the Holiday spirit, here’s a great rendition of “Let It Snow” from the 1950’s:

Thanks to everyone who helped out and came out to our 2nd annual charity event– it was a success!! Pictures will be posted soon on the official site, but in the meantime you can go and check out the auction of super cool art pieces. If anyone is interested, you still have till this coming Sunday (Dec. 13th) to bid on any of the pieces, and like last year all profits go to the Donor’s Choose charity.

Here’s my contribution to the auction, entitled “Say When, Frank.”

Pinups!!

Posted in Femmes, Illustration on August 18th, 2009 by Justin – 6 Comments

For the last month or so I’ve been in pinup land, creating several different pinups for many cool projects that are coming up. The first is a series of Sketch cards for the 2009 Archie Trading Cards series that has just been released. Headed up by Steven Frank, this is the first time Archie comics has done an all original Artist Sketch Card series, and so I was SUPER excited to be a part of it! Here are the 24 cards I contributed:

Also, coming out this holiday season is the first ever Artist Sketch card series starring Dean Yeagle’s “Mandy and Skoots”! Featuring art from many talented artists including the master Dean himself, I had the honor of being invited to contribute 56 cards to the series! I’ll post more of those as I finish them in the next month or so….

Lastly, Craig Yoe (who just released a great book on the secret art of Superman creator Joe Shuster) asked me to contribute a pinup for a top secret book that will be released sometime this year, but unfortunately I can’t say much more until I get the go-ahead to let you know. So please stay tuned!!
