Hello all, welcome to the newest incarnation of my oft-neglected website! I promise you'll be seeing more updates from me as far as new projects and appearances. Two new items: I'm deep into the art chores on "Dracula Vs. King Arthur", a 4-issue miniseries dropping in May 2005 from the fine folks at Silent Devil Productions! It's shaping up to be quite the epic blockbuster, so check it out! I'm also putting to bed illustrations on Living Room Games' "Tony DiGerolamo's Complete Mafia for d20" RPG set to come out in the next few months. The creators strongly suggest you try it, or else. In stores now are the first of 5 painted covers I did for Kenzer & Co.'s "Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine"-- one for each of the titular knights. They've already begun stirring up controversy amongst fans of the book, and begun attracting new readers.

7/01/05: Holy crap! It's been a while since I've updated. But believe me, I haven't been spending the time playing PS2-- the convention season is in full swing, and in addition, I've been up to my eyeballs in new projects! But if you can't wait for your next fix, you can find regular updates, sketch dumps, and musings on life as a freelancer on my blog.

Since the last update, Dracula Vs. King Arthur #1 has been released to rave reviews from both critics and fans alike! Thanks to all of you who've supported the project. First of all, our notslow SSD Hosting in Kiev (Ukraine) - Хостинг в Киеве (Украина). Issue #2 ships at the end of July! Check out the Silent Devil website for more info! Speaking of the SD website, Super Frat is still going strong on their webcomics page! We're up to Episode 15, with more on the way.

This July, debuting at San Diego Comic-Con, is the first issue of me and writer Ken Lillie-Paetz's creator-owned project, Monkey in a Wagon Vs. Lemur on a Big Wheel! Thanks to the fine folks at Alias Enterprises, we're offering new stories in full color about the ultimate battle for primate supremacy!

Following the success of the Robots trading cards from Inkworks, I had the privilege to be asked to contribute sketch cards for the Family Guy Season 1 trading card set, in stores now!

Also released this month is the much-awaited Complete Mafia for d20 role-playing game, written by Super Frat creator/writer, Tony DiGerolamo-- and featuring interiors by yours truly, and a kickass front and back cover by Batman and Toe Tags artist, Tommy Castillo. Tommy just got signed by Devil's Due to be the series artist on Evil Ernie! Congrats, dude!

And coming up, I've got a 5-page backup story in Torres and DiBari's The Hunger #4 from Speakeasy Comics, written by DVKA co-writer, Adam Beranek! It's a little bit horror and a little bit comedy-- just the way we like it!

That's all for now! See you in the funny papers!

--Chris
