Good evening all! Found out just the other day from the grand mack-daddy of writing Mr. Steve Ekstrom that our second comic book together titled HAUNTED will be making it's debut from the mighty Top Shelf Publishing! And to be exact, it's being published online at Top Shelf 2.0 this October 25th! Just in time for All Hallows Eve. We've been shopping it around for a little bit now and to have it picked up by these good ladies and gents is a beautiful, beautiful thing. HAUNTED is a 12 page tale of eerie suspense written by Steve Ekstrom (author of BREAKFAST), penciled & inked by moi, and colored by the extremely talented Jesse Turnbull. Jesse and I went to college together at ye ole' MICA, where he studied under the exquisite colorist and gentleman Mr. Jose Villarrubia. It was great working with these fella's and I hope to do so more in the near future. Here's a brief synopsis from the Ekstrom himself. He describes HAUNTED as... “a suspenseful ghost story about trust and how people perceive the truth. Steve is a troubled young man who decides to divulge a dark, lifelong secret to Samantha. She wants to believe his story; but, does Steve’s frightening revelation illuminate a dark corner of his past or is he casting shadowy aspersions on their somewhat tenuous relationship?" AND for those that don't know Top Shelf has published a SLEW of awesomeness. Ranging from Alan Moore & Eddie Campbell's FROM HELL, to Nate Powell's Swallow Me Whole, to Andy Runton's Owly, to the newly released B.B. Wolf and the Three LP's by JD Arnold & Rich Koslowski (which I just picked up at the New York Comic Con last weekend and it's incredible. ALL should check it out. Seriously). Included right here are a few panels from HAUNTED and as soon as time allows I'll most certainly upload a few of the actual pages in the Sequential Art section of my website. In the meantime you can check out the always enjoyable Top Shelf 2.0 right HERE! Thanks folks and I'll be back in a few days! Until then... happy October! - D
