Busy. (And yes, I have a slight pen addiction.)

Very stoked to show off my variant cover for HERO HIRO issue 3, from Jeff McClelland and @geckoadams.com! It’s now available to order at your local comic shop! Releases in April! Thanks to Jeff and Michael for this opportunity! #comicart #comics #keenspot #herohiro #variantcover

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

PNW!! THIS Saturday! Free comics hang out/ class/ presentation/ QnA PLUS free comics give away ( pdx people know I do not mess around with the giveaways) AND a camera down sneaky peak at the new Superman/ Spider-man story Sara pichelli and I are reuniting for! @nwmoca.bsky.social

I’m constantly floored by the passion and camaraderie found at the SCBWI Winter Conference. I have come to again realize how much I enjoy cheering and supporting like-minded creators and their successes, and THAT, ultimately, will always be the fulfilling factor in my publishing journey. #scbwiny26

Yep. I’m gonna hang this next to my phone…

Seeing @thejerrybennett.com again was delightful! Sweet! @scbwi.bsky.social 2026

I can’t believe the NY Conference is next week! I’m so stoked! It’s such an overwhelmingly inspirational and energizing weekend. SUPREMELY excited to host the illustrator social with @debbieohi.com! #scbwiNY26

I tell you what: as much as I love drawing mecha, Gundam is one of the tougher mecha styles to draw, though I still love the challenge of it. #gundam #mecha #comicart #penandink

I drew and illustrated a ton of stuff, SO MUCH I STILL CAN’T SHARE, and there’s much much more to come. This year was… something, but I still saw the blessings provided through it all. Here’s to fighting the good fight in 2026.

This week's #comic review is Okie Comics Oklahoma Kaiju 2 written by Jeff Provine with art by @thejerrybennett.com this comic delivers a tone reminiscent of 50s-60s giant creature sci-fi & we are here for it! #Kaiju #Indiecomics Watch Here: youtu.be/P43GSuKODQc

Get ready to Pitch! We're kicking off Pitchfest season early with a new poster by Took Har-Paz and Sarah Thomas! Submission opens February 12th, 2026. Learn more at: kidscomicsunite.com/kcu-pitchfest/ #graphicnovel #kidlit #pitchfest

I was privileged to read this story and see all the gorgeous lineart, and trust me, you will love the Lynchian tone of this narrative. Go back this book!

Looking forward to talking shop with the Oklahoma comic creators!

I just backed Spawnimon: A Parody Card Game on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/851...

STEAMPUNK HOLLOW Hadn’t done a proper pen and ink piece in awhile, and it’s made my mouth water for more. I don’t really post much anymore, but I was happy how this pen and ink turned out.

For a limited time, you can get the official OCAF tees that @robertwilsoniv.bsky.social and I designed!

A Steven Soderbergh Star Wars film would have been amazing. Again, Disney fails.

Ink and Draw is now rescheduled for October 26th, 3-5pm @literatipress.bsky.social in the Paseo Arts District. @jeocreations.bsky.social(HIRO DOGGIE SPACE CORGI) will offer tips/feedback on comic art portfolios. Now’s your chance to get solid pro comics mentoring!

VENOM! I hadn’t drawn on a black variant blank before, but I enjoyed the challenge! #art #comicart #venom #marvel #posca

#scbwiArtober2025 Day 5: Eyes My apologies if it’s a bit too freaky. I’ve been dwelling on the idea of eyes being windows to the soul. While working, it also brought to mind Junji Ito’s work, not that my stuff even compares. #art #artober #inktober #penandink #ink #digital #comicart #procreate

Representing @okcomicarts.bsky.social for DICK TRACY DAY in Pawnee, home to Chester Gould, creator of Dick Tracy. Even met one of his grandchildren. He had awesome stories. #oklahoma #okcomicarts #dicktracy #pawnee #dicktracyday

On Wednesday, my bud, @karammitchell.com, graciously drove us to LITTLE ROCK (5 hours away!) to see and hear from the incredible John Hendrix! His awe-striking exhibit and keynote was precisely what I needed to reenergize my creative side.

I love the idea of this, but my wife said that several of her murder mystery novels used the same ingredients for the purposes of killing the victims. Fascinating… and a tad freaky.

talking about the less-exciting scenes which are often the connective tissue of a comic- we're doing more of these thanks to Matthew making a recording station at the studio

For fun. Anyone remember this? #comicart #starwars #snl #undercoverboss #kyloren #matt #radartechnician

Busy catching up on clients, personal projects and LIFE, but I did want to at least show the art I created for the @okcomicarts.bsky.social trading card set made exclusively for the festival. They wildly sold out. Definitely doing that again next year. #art #comicart #mecha #tradingcards #ocaf2025

My course on creating a comic from start to finish is SEPTEMBER 29th, and will happen every following Monday at 6:30pm for eight weeks. oklahomacontemporary.org/learn/studio... (Photos courtesy of Squirrelly Jedi Photography) #studioschool #comics #oklahoma #education

Remembering Comics Legend and personal inspiration of mine JOE KUBERT on his birthday. Celebrating the Maestro by working on some comics pages today. 🥂

23rd anniversary observed.

Congrats to @okcomicarts.bsky.social, the comics festival was a smashing success and the OKC comics scene has a show to be proud of. For me personally, the highlight was the team of Agents of Atlas cosplayers 🤖🦍🧜‍♀️

I had a great time at the Oklahoma Comic Arts Festival over the weekend. Beautiful venue, very diverse crowd, very well organized and I made money. Congrats to @brianwinkeler.bsky.social, @robertwilsoniv.bsky.social and everyone who worked so hard. A big accomplishment. @okcomicarts.bsky.social

We are less than 20 days from launch and just past two thirds of the way to 100 followers on our prelaunch page. #UKGK October 1st www.kickstarter.com/projects/plu...

I’m also on the festival committee, and it’s a bit surreal seeing it all come together. STOKED doesn’t begin to describe how I’m feeling! #OCAF2025

PANEL ALERT! SERIOUS ISSUES: THE HIGHS & LOWS OF MAKING COMICS @gabrielhardman.bsky.social (Green Lantern: Earth One), @robertwilsoniv.bsky.social (Heartthrob) and moderator @brianwinkeler.bsky.social (Knuckleheads) share wisdom and their fave and not-so-fave parts of the process of making comics.

Dick Tracy was created by an Oklahoman!

“ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT OKLAHOMA DUMPSTER FIRES” My (subtly political) piece for Canopy’s Little Trees exhibition! Show opening is Thursday, September 11, from 6-9pm. If you haven’t been to Canopy, it’s a fun art vibe! Hope you’ll drop by! #art #comicart #smokeythebear #oklahoma #PlazaDistrict

What a great trio of characters, and Gabriel is an incredible storyteller. Can’t wait!
