Illustration de couverture pour Wild West.

Got a sweet Shadow commission from Bill Reinhold at a local show yesterday. Would tag him but Bluesky says his handle is invalid.

Seen in FB: “Frank Miller Dessins de couverture de "Lone Wolf and Cub" (1987/88) J'adore l'encrage qu'il a utilisé à l'époque, précis et tranchant comme un Katana...” Frank Miller #LoneWolfAndCub (1/2)

Is it Halloween yet?

My wife Linda Lessmann and I had great time, as usual, at our hometown show, @c2e2.bsky.social 2025! Quite busy stuck at our table selling prints, etc., but I did a few con sketches too. Here are two Batman pieces. Special thanks to Alex Rae , Mike Negin, and C2E2 crew for everything go smoothly!

Here the b&w companion volume to my own Toth collection. Most was reprinted subsequently but there are bits and bobs in here that are hard to track down. Just nice to have it all together www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/by9s1...

THIS WEEKEND!!! My wife Linda Lessmann and I will be at PENSACON in Pensacola, Florida, Feb 14, 15, and 16, 2025! Come visit us in Artist's Alley! www.pensacon.com

Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe signature of the day: Torpedo signed by @billreinhold.bsky.social.

"(Elon Musk) you don’t control the money of the American people. the US Congress does that - and just like the president - cannot impound the money of the people, we don’t have a fourth branch of government called ‘Elon Musk,’ and that’s going to become real clear.” - @raskin.house.gov

My Big Cartel site is updated with The Bat-Man: First Knight collections - signed and with an original sketch. 5 different options up there: mikeperkins.bigcartel.com

En attendant la sortie du tome 5 de Wild West, voici une preview d'un page. Pour les dialogues, il faudra attendre d'avoir l'album en main en mai prochain ! #western #wildwest #bd #bandedessinée

I wouldn't be so crass as to say "Do your part for the resistance and read our book," but Dave Marsh described it as "patriotic in all the ways that matter, to all the things that one might justifiably be patriotic to"—and it's been reissued by Abrams Books: store.abramsbooks.com/products/unc...

Next in my Musical Sketchbook: Shang-Chi by @billreinhold.bsky.social, with a quote from the Carl Douglas song "Kung Fu Fighting."

A winters Scary Godmother stop motion animation I made last year trying out some painted backgrounds and cut together scenes. I liked it. I learned a bunch. It took all night. And, I need more room to make these! 😄

I’ll be deleting my Instagram and Facebook and while that might hurt my livelihood some, I’m counting on my friends here to help keep others informed of my store, con appearances and other stuff. Still on TikTok for the duration.

The Beasts of Burden Omnibus collects the Eisner Award-winning series together in 1 comprehensive paperback volume, arriving next month! Details: bit.ly/4eCpIUK By @evandorkin.bsky.social, @thejillthompson.bsky.social, and many more.

I can’t imagine any publisher that wanted to crowdfund an English language collection of Jorge Zaffino’s work wouldn’t make money. I don’t think I know an artist, or fan with good taste who wouldn’t back it.

EVILE (2009) Acrylic on Panel - 21" x 21" In an interview, I was asked how I became interested in drawing dark horror images. Many of the earlier pieces were done because they were, simply put, fun. 1/6

My favorite project I've ever worked on and the first of many collaborations to come! I'm always blown away by Shay's talent & creativity, and it's such an unbelievable pleasure and honor to have contributed to this 💗

Some of my interview in the Back Issue#157 Keith Giffen Tribute Issue. The whole issue is a great overall look at Keith's career and the creators he worked with!

Klaus Janson development work. Could look at this all day.

I've been reading this strip since Volstagg and Fandral met in college. Still going, too! Sunday Funnies!

Latest read, Tex: The Lonesome Rider (2005) by writer Claudio Nizzi and artist Joe Kubert. Tex Willer, Texas Ranger, pursues four men for the brutal murder of a frontier family. 224 pgs of beautiful, rugged, cinematic comic art from one of the greatest comic artists to ever hold a pen.

"When Mexico sends its people, they're sending their best. They're sending firefighters to help solve American problems. They're bringing fire fighting uniforms. They're bringing fire fighting equipment. They're bringing kittens down from trees. And all, I assume, are good people."

Here, I drew this.

Today was a lucky day!😊🌈🌾 I have waited two years to see this Painted bunting, and he finally showed up. #liferbird🐦

Who's Who signature of the day: Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) signed by Gil Kane. (As with Infantino and the Flash, I wasn't about to ask Kane to sign all of his many Who's Who pages, but I just had to get his trademark character signed.)

The view from my window. The pancake ice has formed in Lake Michigan.

Who's Who signature of the day: The Ghost signed by Carl Potts.

An older Batman Killer Croc commission

Inked - Endeavour pages

1987, prep for the Dark Horse GODZILLA comic gig (what a wretched debacle it turned out to be), revamping kaiju characters we hoped to use, but couldn't, so I invented my own versions (only one of which was seen in the final comic, and only briefly). Anyhow, still ©1987, 2025 Stephen R. Bissette.
