Sketches from Free Comic Book Day 2012

Here are most of the sketches I did for Free Comic Book Day this past Saturday. Big thanks to everyone who came by and extra thanks to the fine folks at Phantom of the Attic in Oakland (Pittsburgh, for those who aren't local and don't know the neighborhoods) for having me at the store. It was an awesome time, even if it did get a little steamy in there.

Night of 1000 Wolves cover 3

Finally, the cover to issue 3! The concluding issue of Night of 1000 Wolves is in the current issue of the Previews catalog, due for a July release. So don't forget to pre-order! Issue one is due to hit the stand NEXT WEEK! Be sure to stop by your local comic shop and get your copy.

If you're in Pittsburgh, I'll be at Phantom of the Attic in Oakland twice in the coming week. Saturday is Free Comic Book Day all across the nation, and I'll be doing sketches all day. Then, Wednesday the 9th, I'll be signing copies of Issue 1 from 4-8pm. C'mon by!

Sketches from Pittsburgh Comicon 2012

Pittsburgh Comicon 2012. Over all, it went really well. Saturday was downright crazy busy. There were a few difficult times, mostly due to my recent surgery, but with a few pain pills and a little help from my friends, I managed to make it through. It was awesome to see so many familiar faces. Also, met some extremely pleasant and inspiring folks this year. Many thanks to everyone who stopped by!

Here are the sketches I did during the show. To see all my pictures from the event, check out my facebook and flickr pages.

Accepting Pre-Orders for Pittsburgh Comicon and Summit City

I am now accepting sketch pre-orders for Pittsburgh Comicon, April 20-22 and Summit City Comic Con, May 12th in Fort Wayne Indiana. If you're going to the con, you can email me with a pre-order. Due to my work schedule, I will be finishing most of these at the convention. So if you are only going to be there at a certain time, be sure to let me know so that I can schedule to have yours done when you show up. Space is very limited this year, so sign up early!


Pre-pay via PayPal to avoid carrying so much cash at the con. Just send me an email at dave@davedrawscomics.com

Thanks!

Also, I wrote an article for ComicMonsters.com, detailing my process for creating a page and cover for issue one. Check it out here!

Pages from Night of 1000 Wolves

Last week I showed you the cover art to issue one. Now I present the art from four random pages of Night of 1000 Wolves. Written by Bobby Curnow, art(pencils, inks, watercolors) and covers by me, alternate covers by Michael Manomivibul. The first issue is in this month's Previews catalog, available for pre-order(order #MAR120377). The new Previews hits comic book stores today, so check it out amongst all the other great titles from IDW!

And Happy Leap Day!

Night of 1000 Wolves cover

Here is the cover art for issue 1 of Night of 1000 Wolves, a new project from writer Bobby Curnow and myself, published by IDW. The solicit is in the upcoming March edition of Previews for a release in May. The order code is MAR120377, so please consider pre-ordering it from your favorite comic book retail outlet. This is a creator owned book, and we really appreciate those pre-orders!

Here are the sketches leading up to this cover. As you can see, on some very wise advice I received, the final art was flipped to allow for a better flow.

I did this pinup as my contribution to this year's Low Concept, the second 11 O'Clock Comics Anthology. Learn more about it here. You may remember I did a pinup for last years anthology of Dinosaur Soldiers vs. Giant Robots.
