A cheap excuse for new characters? Perish the thought.

Making up time. You should probably follow on Tumblr to keep abreast.
#inktober – Amazing Fantasy 15 NOIR
I was surprised amongst the myriad Amazing Fantasy 15 homages, cover rips, et al that there wasn’t a prominent example with Spider-Man Noir. I didn’t go digging through deviantART so I won’t claim to be the first, but here’s another entry for inktober. Sharpie, gel pen, and pen and ink (along with some post-production for the logos) and here we are. I think I’ll sell the original at the Portland Comic Expo, this Sunday, if anyone wants it.
The Punchin’ Bag 14: A Wrenched Kneecap
Featuring Tex Arkana.
Previewed as part of inktober, things ramp up between our titular hero and his foil.
A little pen and inktober
Apparently inktober is a thing, and as a pen and ink guy, I’d be remiss if I didn’t contribute something to the pantheon. Occasionally I’ll like to take a panel of The Punchin’ Bag and do it as a larger scale drawing, throw a wrench into the works as far as style (I mean, it’s still me and it’s still black and white, so it won’t be too jarring). So here’s a bit from the next Punchin’ Bag strip, a slightly more detailed or stylized Tex Arkana.
The Punchin’ Bag 13: Tex Arkana
I had to take a few weeks off to work on prints and actual, factual, printed comic books for Gentleman & Scholar Comics‘ booth at the Portland Comic Expo. It’s surreal.
Now, though, PB is back talking to an old friend of GSC, Tex Arkana. Unsurprisingly, it doesn’t go well for The Punchin’ Bag. You’ll get’em next time, Punchy!
The Punchin’ Bag #1/2 Cover
A slightly cleaner version of the Punchin’ Bag #1/2 Bonus Issue Aschcan Spectacular, upcoming for the Portland Comic Expo in October. It may or may not be a cover swipe of Marvel Team-Up #150.
PB #1/2 is a collection of the first 12 one pagers from ThePunchinBag.tumblr.com.
I was going to collect every 24 pages into an issues, but the Expo came up, so we get a throwback to the days of Wizard and their #1/2 issue mail-aways.
The Punchin’ Bag: Ketchup
I forgot to post the last…uh…four Punchin’ Bags I’ve done. Here, have some:
The Punchin’ Bag 8: Sornic The Hedgehog
Some profound wisdom from Pete cuts like a knife. Also, that episode of The Simpsons.
