Popeye preview image...

My Popeye comic continues to develop nicely. The script is coming along at a furious pace, and the character designs are all finished. I even have a finished piece of art that not only exemplifies how the book will look when it's done, but also illustrates the kind of fanciful adventures "my" Popeye will have...

My story is a prequel of sorts, set about 10 years before Popeye met the Oyl family, so he looks a little younger in my comic, with longer hair (Popeye wasn't always bald in the comic strip). Compared to the modern look of the character, my Popeye also has a longer nose and hairy forearms, like Segar's.

Oh, did I mention this project already has a publisher?

More as it happens...

A sneak peek...

Now that he's in the public domain, I'm working on a Popeye comic.


I have been waiting for this moment my whole life.

Trading Cards

Lately I've been obsessed with drawing trading card art. I enjoy drawing famous characters and interpreting their iconic looks in my own style. Here's a sample of what I've drawn in the past couple weeks.


If you're interested in getting some cheap original art, I've listed some of these (and many that aren't pictured here) on eBay. Happy bidding!

Tom & Scratch #7

Though this is the first strip I've posted for 2022, it was actually drawn last month. I'm only telling you this so you won't think I got the date wrong when I signed it.
