THE DETHZINE

⚡️THUNDERHORSE ⚡️ 

My full piece for @thedethzine!  

Metalocalypse was one of my first fandoms when I was a wee lad (along with Tee Eff Two lolz), and it’s nice to draw something for it now that I can draw.  A lil’ different interpretation of the official music video for my favorite Dethklok song~ Nathan’s still got his axe n’ he rides a steel horse, but now the beautiful lady is Skwisgaar 🖤

All the proceeds go to charity!  Proceeds will go to Direct Aid, as well as the family of Jon Schnepp, one of the directors of the show.

Sand Witches!

comic: SANDWITCHES

year: 2013

pages: 8 (front and cover)

rated:  PG for cartoon boobs

Here's a mini-comic I did for my friend Guinness's artbook, FINGER ROOT.    Entirely based on a dream I had about witches running in the desert.  My dreams are strangely specific.

THE TICKLER

comic: THE TICKLER

year: 2015

pages: 20 (front and cover)

rated: NC-17 for explicit sexual imagery and violence

Warning for sexual assault!

A collab on a surreal sex comic!  Jonny wrote the script, and I drew it with lots of creative freedom.

"His fixation to somehow make women happy developed into a tickle fetish. When he tickles he goes into a fantasy world when he battles his inner demons as he tries desperately to save the woman he yearns to be with."

PLAYGOIL: pussywhip #1

comic: PLAYGOIL (pussywhip #1)

year: 2014

pages: 24 (front and cover)

rated: PG13 for cartoon violence + gore, mild sexual stuff, and cussin' words

See's there's two bands tryna be the number one hair metal band in the 80's y'see, one's THE PENETRATORS and the other's PUSSYWHIP.  This comic is a collection of stories about Pussywhip.  

Stuff about shock rock, consumerism, and homoerotic man-on-man touching.  Huhuhuh I like to draw cartoons.

KINGS OF THE SUNSET STRIP

comic: KINGS OF THE SUNSET STRIP

year: 2014

pages: 32 (covers and interior!)

rated: PG13 for cussin' and sex talk

BEHOLD!!!  That Steel Panther comic!

PT 1. An unofficial origin story.  Based off of interview snippets and my own experiences Sunset Boulevard LOL what a nerd!

PT 2. Satchel gets jealous of Michael's attachment to his tablet.

This was originally a class assignment for digital tools pfft.  Clearly I HAD to draw something heavy metal related  in order to learn Indesign.
