The Trek Life characters


Get to know The Trek Life characters!

The Trek Life April '07

Been missing "The Trek Life," my thrice-weekly comic strip I did for CBS/STARTREK.COM for 2 1/2 years, so to help my withdrawal, I think I'll post a few strips here and there from 1 year ago this time, just for the fun of it. Hope you like 'em, and if you're not familiar with The Trek Life, hit the link and check 'em out! And be sure to check out Star Trek Magazine at your local bookstore for a new "The Trek Life" in every issue too!

Star Trek Magazine Q illustration


A fun illustration I did for Star Trek Magazine a few issues back...

And now for something completely different...

A TOTALLY different type of sketch than what I typically post here... something I sketched at a local park ... I have always loved this scene ... and you can't beat it when you have some geese who actually relatively stand still (for the most part! The beauty of it is, when one moves, you just look at another and can MOSTLY extrapolate the pose!)

Sketchbook page


Bought a new sketchbook and this is the first page from it ... Canson's "Balloon Sketch" 8.5x11 spiral ... the best sketch paper on the market in my opinion!! There's nothing like starting a new sketchbook.

The Legend is near...


Here's a very rough sketch out of the 1st Legend of Bill strip, showing our hero at work, with the bossman ever-looming. Needless to say, Bill is tired of the 9 to 5. Adventure can't be far behind!
Anyhoo, progress is near completion on LOB. Strips are in the hopper, the LOB Comicpress pages are nearly complete, the fine folks at SoulGeek.com have put out the red carpet for Bill, Frank and Gina to reside (we'll call it the "SoulGeek Inn," in 'Bill' terms), and we're about to rock n' roll. Legend of Bill will be weekly, to start, with the intention of increasing it's frequency, with endless possibilities. So, my friends, become a Bill supporter! Sign up for the LOB newsletter, and you'll receive a nifty greeting and some sketch art for fun via e-mail in return... and scroll down this very blog for lots of LOB details and extras as we near launch at the end of this month!! Oh, and I'm working on a map too, highlighting the realm of Bill! ;-)
More details to come!

Legend of Bill: Bill's horse...


A sketch I JUST started awhile ago, showing Bill's horse. I basically wanted to draw Bill on his horse, so I started this sketch ... and there's ol' Frank, just happy to be along for the ride! I think I'll keep rolling on it and put some villianous bad guys in the background amongst the forestry, and see what happens... then, maybe color it up and make a desktop wallpaper out of it or something! ;-) Stay tuned here for progress...

Legend of Bill in "Knights of the Dinner Table" Magazine


Hello, friends, comics fans and gamers! Head out to your local comics shop or gaming store and check out the brand-spanking new issue of Knights of the Dinner Table magazine (#137), featuring the first PRINT installment of my comic strip "Legend of Bill!" I'm very happy to be in the mag, as KODT has been a staple of my reading for some time. Jolly Blackburn and friends sure run a fine mag over there at Kenzer & Co., and really know how to pack a lot of fun into it. And while you're thinking about it, visit their website too! LOADS of stuff to see and do!

Legend of Bill: Meet Princess Gina


Meet Princess Gina! A total kick-butt-take-names girl. Bill and Frank will meet her not long after they quit the ol' day job and set out for high (or low) adventure...
