Do you like Final Fantasies?

Friday, February 25th, 2011

I like Final Fantasies. Why? Because they seem just that much more special because they’re “Final”. Being that there are 14 of them out or coming out now, they don’t seem very Final, huh?

This is art for a FFXIII pitch that failed… epically. Yes, epically.

“Pop, why did it fail epically” you may ask. (in the case you think that you didn’t ask, you did. Seriously. You did.)

Well, friends, this piece failed Epically because I wanted to use the word “Epic” somewhere. It’s the new “Tubular” but saying that this piece failed “tubularly” just doesn’t have the same literary bite nor eloquence as “epically”.

Yeah, I’m a writer.

Prose rolls off of me like raindrops. Or late spring showers. The light airy scent of which carries wafting through the breezy meadow gardens of deleterious, contravening disgorge. See that?

Sheer poetry. Yeah, I rock. Epically.

Start of a new era!

Well not really… but… it sounds good, right?!

It’s been awhile since the last post – just about 7 months. Anyways, just to be more prolific with posts, I’m going to post random images of my work I’ve been storing from the past seven months maybe even from before that! Woooo! Rebel! I know, right?! Don’t make me get all crazy up in here!

So random pic numbah one: Bring it! Ender at 35 character design for Marvel: Ender’s Game series: speaker of the the Dead.
(It’s weird that I talk to myself, right?)

Starting and Endings!

It’s been a good while since I’ve posted an entry!

That’s both good and bad, know what I mean?
Good in that, not posting means I’m busy working. Bad, in that, I’ve been neglecting the site and both of you folks who still visit here. :)

So…. many things have gone down since my last offering of postage. Postage as in a site update, not the flat, one side-stickied piece of paper whose value seem to increase with each passing day. But that’s neither here or there so…

Since the last posting, I was the new artist of Blizzard and Wildstorm’s World of Warcraft: Horde! a brand new series promising to give you a better time than a jar of peanut butter and a hungry Pitbull. Yeah, baby. I was also throwing down lines to the cerebral LEGO series: Bionicle 2009, a rollicking good time the way ephedrine and punching bags are.
WoW:Horde comics have since been cancelled as comic series unfortunately sometimes do and Bionicle has also ended as well. 35_ender_s_game__mazer_in_prison_special_1

Say whaaaa? Yup. Hero Factory is the new game in town, true believers! Bionicle is sadly, no more. But it was fun while it lasted!

So what’s a one dimensional human such as I to do with all of the cancellations and endings?? Have I no other skills than what has been demonstrated by prehistoric cavemen (and wimmins) on cave walls of long ago? Has the recession really caught up with the Pop Mhans?

The recession, I think, has caught up to everyone and I hope and pray that you and yours are well and good. I can only hope that this recession will see an end soon!

I have had the good fortune to still be working and doing what I love to do. That’s right! You are now looking at the Pole Dancer of the ritzy new Shakey’s of Pensacola!
Ahhh, a man can dream, right? Nah, I’m actually still drawing stoopid comics. Steenky panels and whatnot. Gosh! Why can’t I just dance!? I can still close my eyes and dream… Half shirt, tied in a knot. My Daisy Dukes and work boots. Dancing. Shakin’… Yeah, baby, yeah!

Well, it’s been a hectic four or five months. We were in San Diego for three months then back in Virginia for two weeks and now we’re in Pensacola, FL. What a beautiful place Pensacola is! So, during all of the commotion and hubbub, I did manage to pump out two books that came out recently. Well four if you count Bionicle 2009 #6 and #7. You want the list? Sure! I’ll feed ya, baby birds.

- Bionicle #6
- Bionicle #7 (March)
- World of Warcraft: Special #1
- Ender’s Game: Mazer in Prison

So what am i currently working on? Well… part of my silence the past few months is because of the gag order I signed with Wildstorm so I can’t talk about any of the projects I’m working on with them. But I am allowed to say that I’m doing Ender’s Game stuff with Marvel.

What’s Ender’s Game?

Three words: Orson Scott Card.
OR
Best Series Ever.

Pick one. But they both mean that I’ve been given the privilege to work on this awesome series. Did I say awesome? I meant: ________ Yeah. Fill in the blank with your own earth shattering word. I don’t know. I don’t have one that’s awesomer than AWESOME.

Know what? I’m done. It’s late (as if you couldn’t tell from this “quality” post) it’s way past my bed time. Yeah, I know it’s only 11 pm. Whatever. I only have a grandpa body. My spirit, however, is full of the youth.

RECAP:
Sorry I’ve been away. I am not dead, only dead on the inside. I’m working on stuff I can’t talk about with Wildstorm. I am doing some Ender’s Game stuff with Marvel too. Have been moving around a lot but will post more often. Hahahah, yeah right.

Good night. :)
