Too Many God Damn Draculas Anthology

2012-01-10T03:52:00.001-08:00

Last year I put out a wizard themed anthology entitled "The Asshole Wizard Anthology" featuring a bunch of great artists from deviant art.com. And so far it's been a fairly good success. I sold of all every copy at all 3 of the comic conventions I went to this year.

TOO MANY GOD DAMN DRACULAS

-For 2012 I'd like to do a new vampire themed anthology entitled "Too Many Damn Draculas". So I will be looking for a bunch ofawesome humor oriented comics about Dracula or Vampires, and If it's not too much to ask....the punchline should be a take off of the phrase "Too Many God Damn Draculas". I'm looking for some cover art and illustrations, and if you're not an ace in the writingdepartment, I have several ideas for scripts, that I'd like to see but don't have the wherewithal to accomplish.

-So here's the project guidelinesThe art should fit on a A5 size sheet of paper (aka 5.5" x 8.5" or 148 x 210 mm)Grayscale of B&W300 or 600 dpi in jpeg or psd formatDeadline-----No hard deadline yet but we'll say early May.

And you can send your beautiful Draculastrations toor forward your beautiful Draculaquestions

George Washington and Candy or Medicine

This year I'm working on a new full-color paperback mini called "The Mystery of the Light Shining Out of That Tower for Some Reason."It's gonna be a collection of some of my best so far unpublished works, brand new material, and some updates of older classic comics.This story is the first comic I ever drew back in 2001, which I have redrawn for the 3rd and hopefully final time, and in color. This beauty should be appearing in an anthology coming up as well.

This week, I also drew the cover for an upcoming Volume 18 of the Candy or Medicine Anthology.

Sitting Causes Cancer

2011-11-20T22:38:00.001-08:00

I recently heard on the news that sitting causes increased risk of colon and breast cancer. Here is what I extrapolated from that information.

BOBBYMONO.COM

2011-11-14T15:27:00.001-08:00

I have finally entered the modern age and started a webcomic home for Bobby Mono's Crappy Comics.

Think BOBBY MONO then add a .COM on the end of it and, there you are ...looking at everything I've
done for the last 10 years.

There's a few up now, but I will also be having all of my techno/drum and bass discography from the late 90's
early 2000's for free download as well if you're in to that sort of thing.

Thanks again to everybody for all the support and I hope you can stop by and check it out.

Short Run Comic Expo

2011-11-14T14:55:00.000-08:00

This weekend was the first ever Short Run expo in Seattle, which I had the pleasure of having a table at. It was an amazing crowd...everybody there for alternative comics and not a single dude dressed as Batman in sight. I was sold once I saw the hilarious comic on the back of the flyer by Seattle's own Kelly Froh.

All in all it was a totally amazing experience for me. My first convention, the Jet City Comic Show, ended in total disaster when I sold 3 or 4 comics, couldn't even give away any low budget comics for free, and got laughed at by a guy dressed as Batman. This show was different. There where crowds of enthusiastic alternative comic readers all day till the very last minute.

I went unprepared with only 15-20 copies of each of my four comics, a couple home-made wizard beards and stickers and TOTALLY SOLD OUT of everything I had. I would have thought at the point that all I had left was one lowly comic and a tumbleweed, it would make me a pariah but I sold every god damn one!

Here's a couple sweet trades I picked up at the show

EBBITS #0 BY MICHAEL LITVEN

A COLLECTION OF THE BADASS SUPER MINI'S OF MAX CLOTFELTER

KELLY FROH

A TOTALLY BADASS HANDMADE COMIC BY TAIT HOWARD
"THE SKELETON LAD AND HIS FANTASTIC CHASE"

which is totally great but I'm a total asshole and accidentally bent the front cover.

AND FINALLY MY TABLE MATES FROM EXQUISITE BRAIN
@exquisitebrain.tumblr.com

were a bunch of great guys shopping their very first art mini

To any of you that came to the show thank you so so much for visiting. I had such a great day.

The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

2011-11-09T18:25:00.001-08:00

For those of you awesome dudes in Seattle, I'll be at the SHORT RUN EXPO, at the Vera Project in Queen Anne. 11:30-4:30. Sellin my comic-y wares.

This is a comic I've been obsessively drawing and re-drawing and re-drawing for about 4 months. I feel like I've finally made a breakthrough though.

It's based on one of the more ridiculous Dungeons and Dragons monsters of all time...."The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" which is, to quote headinjurytheater.com

"The rabbit is not just sitting there. The rabbit is part of the monster. So you're looking at an evil tree stump that has a cute bunny on the end of its tentacles so that it can lure people or other animals near it. "

anyway here it is in all its stupid splendor.

P.S. if you are interested in the thing's Dmg, Thaco, and Hit Dice....refer to your dumb ass Monster Manual.

The Wizard 2 Preview : The Quest

2011-10-26T22:11:00.001-07:00

I'm sort of a lazy bastard when it comes to posting stuff for the internet lately, but I just wanted to prove that I am indeed working on something. The Quest, whichwill be a pretty sizable chunk of the sequel to last year's "The Wizard", is gonna be a long gag. About 25-30 pages, inspired by insipid quests given in MMORPG's.

Anyway here's a 2 page preview.

Coming next,

Pigeons with tits.

Valentine's Day

2011-02-13T21:45:00.000-08:00

Tommorrow is Valentine's Day and I got some new stuff.

My wife and I don't really celebrate Valentines. As it's sort of a made up buy candy and flowers day...but we do typically make each other a card. The one for me is usually a really funny zombie related thing about her eating my heart, or baking it in a cake or whatever.

This year I did an illustration for one of her recent favorite songs "Foxes Mate For Life" by the Born Ruffians and song lyrics from their song "This Sentence Will Ruin/Save your life"

I've was an on again off again random visitor to a local drink and draw group here in Seattle last year called the Bureau of Drawers. This cool bunch of people managed to hook up an art show at the Fantagraphics Book Store in Seattle. The Show is called "Love Sick" and is going from Saturday the 12th to March 9th.

After that big setup...I missed the deadline and didn't finish what I was working on till now so....here's what would have been hanging on the wall if I weren't such a lazy ass.

New stuff

2011-01-29T22:00:00.001-08:00

It's a new year. I've already been really slacking off on comics....becoming more and more a curmudgeonly hermit. I recently had one of my comics published in a national anthology "Candy or Medicine #12". They used my comic Babies in Distress as the back cover. They're only 1$, so you should definately pick one up. Also, I'm still selling my 2nd book "The Wizard" on both Etsy and Big Cartel.com

This is a 4 part comic I've been working on for a few weeks...hopefully to be in
a future issue of Candy or Medicine. I was trying to come up with the most elaborate fart joke I could think of....here's the result.

2010-11-16T11:43:00.000-08:00

I haven't posted on here in a while, since I've been mainly working on my latest comic "The Wizard" since last April.

The awesome result of a 2 month long collaborative comic with myself and 17 other really amazing artists. We divided up the panels and let it fly. I'm very partial to all of the ones I didn't do :)

Because of the large file size you may have to download it read.

I should be ordering up a poster in the upcoming months. If you're interested in ordering let me know.

Mola Ram is Unemployed

2009-07-06T19:44:00.001-07:00

If this comic makes no sense to you let me explain and ruin the humor of it entirely for you.

1) Mola Ram is the bad guy from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, you know the one who rips out hearts and offers them to...

2) Kali Ma, the hindu goddess of Death and Creation whom the Thuggi cult in the movie worship.

3) So "Kali Ma" is kind of the catch phrase that Mola Ram says when he tears stuff out of other stuff

4) Towards the end of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Indy and Mola Ram's goons have a showdown on a rope bridge that results in Mola Ram "falling to his death" into a river full of hungry crocodiles.

5) In fact Mola Ram didn't die and this is where the story leaves us...No Thuggi death cult to call home, Mola Ram is....UNEMPLOYED!

6) I have a diseased mind to spend so much time (about a week and a half) on such a weird and obscure joke.

Cthulhu and Dagon for those not familiar are ancient evil gods from the SF/Horror writings of H.P. Lovecraft.

I was too lazy to draw a psychadelic nightmare for Cthulhu, thus, his nightmare comes from a 1980's cutesy poster/trapper keeper folder artist named Lisa Frank, a genius in her twisted world of vomitous psydelic unicorn drawings.
