Review: Comic Bastards Reviews DEAD#3
Comic Bastards have posted their fantastic 5/5 review of DEAD#3!
“Why someone like Image, IDW or Dark Horse hasn’t picked this series up is beyond me. Its leaps and bounds better than 90% of the comics published monthly.” – Dustin Cabeal
Review: Women Write About Comics on The Dead & Clown
Both THE DEAD & Clown were given a spotlight today by the comic blog Women Write About Comics! With some fantastic things to say about both series, I’m especially humbled by the kind words reviewer Desiree Rodriguez had to say about my writing style and approaches.

DEAD2 Begins Weekly Release
THE DEAD – Issue #2 begins its weekly release starting June 17!
Now that THE DEAD Kickstarter, Tricon and a number of other activities have wrapped up, and now that the third issue has been released to ComiXology, James and Jen will be posting a page per week from Issue #2.
So begins the new “season” of THE DEAD, and of course if you haven’t checked out Issue #2, you absolutely have the option to get the entire issue (and more) now on ComiXology.
