Hey Folks!

Just wanted to drop down a quick update as it seems the last one was a few months back. I hope everyone had a positive and productive 2010. Let's make 2011 even better I say! This year, is the year of balance. Which ties in nicely with these two sneak peek pages for the Kung Fu Panda comic titled Kung Fu Panda: The Art of Balance, I did art for. The book is due out on April 11. I really enjoyed the Kung Fu Panda movie, and I find it is one of Dreamworks stronger efforts. My favorite is definitely How to Train your Dragon though. That creative team managed to create strong characters, matched with strong design and great storytelling. What is your favorite Dreamworks film, and why?

I hope you enjoy the samples, and I look forward to your thoughts on the book when it arrives on stands in April!

Cheers,

Dan

Hallowe'en is upon us, and I wanted to share a little sneak peek for this years 13 Ghosts. Can you guess this years Ghostbusters theme?

It's been busy recently, with lots of cool stuff that I can share with you all in the next few months. Until then, here is a sneak peek at IDW's Ghostbusters Hallowe'en One Shot that I penciled. I had a blast working on it, and you'll definitely be seeing more Ghostbusters soon!

Cheers,

It's the 26th Anniversary of Ghostbusters! In honor of the special occasion, I'm posting up a haunted treat for all you GB fans! Why? Cause bustin makes ya feel good, that's why!

Here's a sample panel (NOT FINAL ART) from the upcoming 9 Page Ghostbusters comic short I am providing the art for. It is written by the great James Eatock and published by IDW.

I am also happy to announce that I will also be penciling a 22 page Ghostbusters Hallowe'en issue written by the awesome duo of Peter and Kathleen David. I'm very excited about that and can't wait to show everyone what's cookin.

My yearly Nintendo piece is in the works and I wanted to share some samples with you. This year was a toss up between the Donkey Kong and Star Fox universe. I decided to "barrel roll" with the latter, as I have always found the Star Fox characters to have good, distinct personalities, which helps immensely when drawing them. Don't get me wrong, DK is cool, but his mind set it's overly engaging. Hope you like these samplers!

Cheers,
