Last Friday night, myself, Jerzy Drozd, and Mark Rudolph (The Art and Story podcast) convened with cartoonists Brian Anderson, Eliza Frye, and Diana Nock to informally discuss our favorite subject: making comics.

We’ve dubbed our show The Sequential Artists’ Pub, and the first episode is now available for a listen.

The genesis of the idea for this new show sprang up from a Twitter post where I pontificated the notion of a virtual bar where cartoonists from all walks could bring their favorite drink and talk about comics. Jerzy and Mark both really dug the idea, and a week later, the show became a reality.

Everyone who attended had a fantastic time, and I’m excited about the show’s future.

Our next show will be on Friday, June 13th, at 10PM eastern, and I’ll post reminders for the show on Twitter (my ID is kms007) and the blog. The Sequential Artists’ Pub will also be available on iTunes, so if you can’t make the show, you can catch up with an episode you’ve missed.

Jerzy, Mark and I would definitely appreciate any feedback on our show – and we hope to open the floor to ALL cartoonists and fans of comics to come by for our next episode.

Two new characters that I worked up for a ‘cool down’ sketch. Click the pic above to see the larger image.

Here are the pencils for Monday’s comic. In putting the strip together, I had to make some careful edits to preserve the necessary elements that would convey the story.

A quick warm-up study featuring Bob and Grampa.

I’m very curious to know if readers would be interested in purchasing custom sketches featuring Bob or any of my other characters. The sketches would be on 9″ x 12″ acid-free bristol board and traditionally inked using a combination of Micron and PITT pens, so you’d get a one-of-a-kind unique piece of art that you could frame up.

Alternatively, I could offer an 8.5″ x 11″ color print to go with the sketch as well, for folks who prefer that option.

For the traditionally inked character drawing, the pricing would be $40 and for the 9″ x 12″ sketch and 8.5″ x 11″ color print option it would be $25. (both prices would include shipping in the US)

I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback on this. If I get enough positive responses, I may add this as another service…
