Motor City Comic Con 2009

Being that I'm "in between" a few projects right now I didn't really have anything printed or completed to show this year. However, I did have a good time. I met some cool people, got some work done, and I even managed to sketch a few things just for fun:

Whatever Happened To Kid Cannon?
















Here are all 15 pages for a story I drew back in 2007, called "What Ever Happened To Kid Cannon?" (written by Scott Richmond & published by Young American Comics)

I was given the script by Scott and commissioned by Young American Comics to draw this short story in only around a month 1/2 until deadline, I think it turned out great.

Buy Wild Penny #7 Issue!

The story was about this ex-super hero who outgrew his powers and settles as a high school teacher. We see him on his toughest battle yet... his first date.

In this issue: "Adam, formerly known as teen superhero Kid Cannon goes on an awkwardly pleasant (or is it pleasantly awkward?) first date. (Richmond, McCain)." - Young American Comics
