Digital sketch in light blue under-drawing with grey pencil, featuring a large man dynamically pulling a line or rope of some kind with his right arm. He wears a hat that is yet unclear, perhaps one worn by the Canadian Mounties. There are no background details and the drawing is loose and gestural.
How many sketches do you usually need before you feel like you’ve got a handle on a new character?

Just got back from Festival BD de Montréal with a bunch of comics, but the first ones I'll dive into will be Naukan and Peregrines: Badlands from my friends @thiagosouto.bsky.social and @group-of-7-comics.bsky.social's Chris Sanagan & @jasonlapidus.bsky.social
An homage to The Demon number 1 with Hellboy in the place of Etrigan.
See you at MCAF / FBDM this weekend! GROUP OF 7 Comics in Tent A05 between Roy and Duluth.
Exploring the DNA of #mikemignola #hellboy through drawing this #homage #mashup
Do you think Kirby’s The Demon is somewhere in the genetic? I wanted to see what HB might look like through Kirby’s lens.
Beyond excited for the Montreal Comic Arts Festival. One of our absolute favourites! Find us on Rue Saint-Denis in the Plateau in one week’s time at BOOTH A05.
Montreal, we can’t wait to see you again! 👋🏻

Do you ever tweak your artwork after it’s been published?
This one first appeared on social media with a different approach, placing the figures within the title lettering. A variation of that was printed in @group-of-7-comics.bsky.social Peregrines: Badlands.
I think I like this new one best.

A quick digital drawing added to PEREGRINES: BADLANDS from @group-of-7-comics.bsky.social
I see something there, so I’m tempted to use it as the basis for a traditional pen and ink piece.

It’s Bruno! A great memory from the trip to France!
A large demi-demon stands amongst skulls and dirt in what could be a graveyard, while carrying a smoking gun in his left hand. His right hand is oversized and has a rock-like texture, and his demon horns are sanded down to two flat discs above his eyes. He wears a trench coat and combat belt. The image is rendered in heavy black ink and a wash of greys. Hellboy is a no-nonsense paranormal investigator created by American cartoonist Mike Mignola.
Just finished the #hellboy drawing I’ve been sharing here and on IG for a few days.
Ink and wash on 9x12” bristol. Up for sale locally or shipped to ya. DM me for details.

Have you been to a comics event that profoundly inspired you?
I’m reflecting on our Group of 7 experience at The International Festival of Comics in Angoulême one year ago. Met talented Canadian cartoonists and publishers (in France? 🤣), kind and generous locals, and saw mind-blowing original art.
