I try to maintain a very hand drawn style, I don't want to try to trick people into thinking they're not looking at a drawing. As such I try not to use very much Photoshop in my work (mostly just for coloring purposes.) I find that this hand-made approach establishes a much more personal connection with the viewer. Also, I like to draw crazy sick monsters!
I am midway through an eighty page comic story about a guy who gets beat up by skeleton/moth ghosts in an old flooded city. Here are a couple of preview pages:

Here's info on an online comic strip mini-series I completed a while back, The X-Heroes:

"The X-Heroes: Bringing superheroes to a slow, grinding halt.

The X-Heroes are the longtime protectors of Paramount City. They have saved Lunatown from the viciousness of Slithor, Mayor Rothberg from the infectiousness of Vozom, and Little Atlantis from the repulsiveness of Mr. Wiggles. Not to mention starring in commercials for Roca Cola and St. Neverstop Batteries, and their own series of action films directed by Marty Powrad. Aided by a never ending supply of wondrous weaponry from The Scientist, if it’s possible to be too good at your job then the X-Heroes were. After the action films were slowly run into the ground (finally concluding with the painful X-Heroes Conquer Mars) and super villains became scarcer, The X-Heroes found that they had battled their way into a corner. Having spent literally every penny they made on super model girlfriends, jet packs, mansions, and flying hot rods outfitted with laser guns, our heroes are now out on the street and are going to have to get creative to find a way just to survive."

Hey my fellow floridian :) I've read the whole thing, all strips this morning; they were good! I like your art a lot, I specially like your concept; you give an original flavor to the theme of superheroes confronted with menial life, its funny. Good job man :)
