i realize that it's been a loooooong time since i've been around these parts and i want to thank everyone for the kind words on the transformers work that i recently posted.

the last quarter of 2012 was both insanely hectic and unbelievable gratifying; in september, i had a two-man gallery show (my first, but not my last) with montygog at gallery 1988 and in november, my wife and i welcomed a beautiful baby daughter into our lives.

as the year comes to a  close, i realize that i don't have enough hours in my life to keep all of my social network endeavors fresh and up-to-date. that said, going into 2013, my website, strongstuff.n ]]> http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/poster-collective-interview-306843934 http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/poster-collective-interview-306843934 Wed, 06 Jun 2012 21:44:58 PDT poster collective interview nonadult journals/personal strongstuff http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strongstuff.gif?3 Copyright 2012-2013 *strongstuff @strongstufftom

so, today's the day that my retailer incentive cover for GI Joe #26 hit stands. it's my first comic work and i couldn't be prouder.

problem is, i'm not sure how many of these retailer incentives exist or how they're doled out to comic shops, so i have no idea where i can pick one up. on top of that, my local comic shop is in currently closed as they transition to a new space.

if anyone has their paws on a copy, i'll gladly trade you some signed prints in exchange for it. lemme know.

as 2009 comes to a rapid close and i begin to turn my focus to 2010, i'm tinkering with the idea of putting out an artbook. now, you may say to yourself "why the hell should i care?" or "whoop-dee freakin-doo", or "good luck, poindexter."

well, that's the idea.

i'm floating that idea out there to gauge interest. i'd probably have to charge in the $25-$30 range for a 7"x7" 30 page book with shipping included. i'm thinking of printing the book through blurb.com, so i'm also looking for feedback if anyone has used them before.

again, this is just a thought at this point. schedule, funds and interest will dictate if it happens. ]]> http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/image-united-229512821 http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/image-united-229512821 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 06:48:27 PST image united nonadult journals/personal strongstuff http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strongstuff.gif?3 Copyright 2009-2013 *strongstuff @strongstufftom
i was in high school at that momentous time when basically all of my favorite artists of the day decided to pack up their sizable talents from the cozy confines of marvel, strike out on their own and create something fresh. i was just starting to take drawing seriously at the time and the pioneering spirit of mcfarlane, lee, liefeld, portacio, et al just electrified the passion for drawing which i still hold. say what you will about the early days of image (etched foil hologram covers) and their eventual contribution to the implosion of the industry, but it was still pretty cool to see all of those guys p ]]> http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/thankful-229564399 http://strongstuff.deviantart.com/journal/thankful-229564399 Thu, 26 Nov 2009 07:47:29 PST thankful. nonadult journals/personal strongstuff http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strongstuff.gif?3 Copyright 2009-2013 *strongstuff @strongstufftom
