Don't Tell Tom!

This is a comic that I did for the newsletter magazine for members of the International Society of Caricature Artists (ISCA - caricature.org). It is my first 'real' attempt at a comic, and it was done in collaboration with my buddy Jeremy Townsend. Jeremy wanted to take the chance to write and art direct for a change, and I wanted to try sequential art a bit more. It was a good fit, and at the expense of our good friends Tom Richmond and Ed Steckley (trust me, you can't get this kind of crap past these two, nowadays!), we had a blast creating it. We had a very specific idea of style and colors, and I think we came pretty damn close. This was completed digitally.

The comic is four pages, but I'll share one at a time (check back tomorrow!):

Joe - I just got my copy of the newsletter. Great job!

Really nice, Joe! You stripped out all non-essentials for a stylized caricature style that would work well for retail too. Love the treatment of the eyes and mouths and the color.

Really like where you are going with your art. Can't wait to see what Jert and you did with the other panels.

Best of luck to you in LA. See you on FB...
