Sketch cards for charity
Steve Frank runs the sketch card company 5finity, and every year he does a charity auction for March of Dimes. This year I contributed 5 cards to the auction, and they're now up on eBay for bidding.
I did my cards right as DC was doing their new 52 comics relaunch, so all the cards are inspired by the new takes on some of my faves...
Wonder-Woman, Batman, Superman (in his Action comics street Supes guise), Superman, and Supergirl

BRONZED BEAUTIES 6: bronze blitz!
The Bronze Age, comics forgotten era.
In the 1970's comic companies pushed their content in new and wildly different directions inspired by the anything goes social attitudes of the times, while also balancing new fan fostered talent at the helms of post Comics Code adherent, kid friendly books.
While not much born of the era had lasting impressions, there's a cool factor to the books that's singular in style, and inescapable if one looks just a bit closer...
That's where I come in, with Bronzed Beauties, my weekly look at some of the books from the era, that feature more were-men, cyborgs, man-things, barbarians, sorceresses, dinosaurs, monsters, and damsels in distress than any other time, all in striking and vibrant (or should I say faded) four color ink!
Since it's been a few months since I last featured any bronze age beauties, before I get back into doing full weekly book reviews, I thought I'd do quick reviews of multiple bronze books I read through a while back, just highlighting some of the key bronze attributes for each, and not fully detailing them this time. With some cool new books in full review to follow, starting next week!
So, let's get started...

Artwork: New 52 Supergirl sketch
Here's a recent sketch (pencil, ink, and marker on 8.5x11" acid free paper) of the New 52 version of Supergirl (loving the new reboots of Supergirl and Wonder Woman btw)...
Which is available on eBay now!
I hope to do more sketches and sketch covers (like this recent Wolverine and the X-Men number 1, I sold on eBay, pictured below) to put up on eBay this winter!

New Facebook fan page and store
I recently created a new store with all my comics, sketchbooks, and items in it, including fan art prints (which until now I've never offered online) and more! You can check that out by clicking below here:
You can also get 20% off right now if you visit my new Facebook fan page and "like" that!
I plan to add more material moving forward, including more prints, and t-shirts.
Right now there aren't any t-shirts in there, but don't forget you can pick up some of my designs from my Redbubble store:
