the rise and fall of it all on the fabler

Posted by operator x On July - 19 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

So some time ago i met Bruno Steppuhn, founder of thefabler.com – comics site and home to the very excellent fabler blog. It’s a cool idea of a comics site, still in it’s early stages of being developed but very promising from my talks with Bruno. They plan to have quite comprehensive services to help you self publish comics. I’ll let them tell you themselves here.

One of the things he’s doing to help kick start the site is holding a contest to get creators to upload content and promote it. As it happens i have some older stuff I’ve been meaning to get a few pages done on, that’s just about perfect for the job i think.


The rise and fall of it all is a short graphic novel and multi media project i started in the early 2000’s with John O’Brien, that got stalled and shelved and I’ve felt much self recrimination over.

Happily i think I’ll have the time and means to get the next ten done to make the 25 pages needed to qualify, in fact about 4 or 5 are already and just lack lettering.

Unfortunately you do have to join the site to vote, it’s kind of like Zuda that way. But if you dig what I’m doing and what to help make my job getting it done a heck of a lot easier and faster, then take a second to register, and vote please!

The Adventures of Superboy

Posted by operator x On July - 19 - 20101 COMMENT


This is a cover image I painted for a hard-cover collection of 1940’s Superboy stories published by DC, which should be out on comic shop shelves very soon. It was a fun assignment, and gave me the opportunity to draw a light-hearted super hero image. I even got to put in a puppy.

The final painting was done in gouache and ink on water-colour paper. You can check out the original thumbnail drawing for it below, as well as a sheet of warm-up doodles I did while getting accustomed to the character.
