HULKS RED BLUE & GREEN

People have been noticing that I am no longer handling the art chores on the Hulk comic strips written by Audrey Loeb that have been appearing as a regular back-up feature in Marvel’s HULK comic book.  I’d like to make it clear that Marvel did NOT unfairly dismiss me.  Jeph and Audrey Loeb wanted me to stay on the strips, but I chose to leave.  It was a hard decision to make, but I simply did not have enough time in my schedule to continue.

I fully support Marvel, Jeph & Audrey Loeb’s decision to continue the strip with the same style of art that I began it with.  There is no reason to be upset with Marvel, the Loebs, or new artist Carlos Silva on my behalf.  Since Audrey has been the writer all along and the artwork is on par with my own, you can continue to expect the same level of quality you have seen all along, and you can continue to enjoy these back-up features guilt-free.

If fans really want to show their support of me, please buy the new G-MAN: CAPE CRISIS comics.  Please ask your store to order them if you can’t find them (use the order form!  download by clicking the floating comic above!) and please share them with your friends who haven’t yet read them.

Thanks!

World War Hulk Conclusion!

The all-new third and final act in the Mini Marvel World War Hulk trilogy is out this week as a five-page back-up feature in WHAT IF: NEWER FANTASTIC FOUR!

BREAKING NEWS…

MINI MARVELS collection?

WORLD WAR HULK MINI MARVEL STRIP

I’m a bit late to the game announcing this one, but there’s a new three-page Mini Marvels strip in WORLD WAR HULK: AFTERSMASH which went on sale this week. As you’d expect, it’s a Mini Marvel take on World War Hulk. Titled “Rally the Troops,” the strip gives us an inside look as to how the Mini Marvel heroes prepare for an enraged Hulk’s impending arrival after he threatens to destroy those backstabbing Illuminators.

You can see the six page strip that preceded these events online here, along with an interview I did with editor Nate Cosby.
