Artist Insider: Featuring Michael McComb

Framed like Fine Art.
SOLD OUT in less than 24 Hours! It was an honor to be the Issue #1 featured artist, getting a chance to debut my original character Mz. J. The response was overwhelming and still to this day one of my favorite works of art. Big thanks to everyone that made this book a complete success!
This cover marked an EPIC point in my artistic journey. Drawing the legendary Lady Death and Zombie Tramp in the same frame was something I only dreamed years before. Interiors written and drawn entirely by Dan Mendoza with Supervision and Blessings from Brian Pulido... what's not to love? Electricity and Fire come together as one in this piece of art.

Economics in Comics "I Dream of Jeanie" Exclusive
I don't know about you, but when I think of genies, I dream of Jeanie. So this concept was simply meant to be! Recreating Jeanie's background from inside her bottle was a must-do challenge that ended up being worth the sleepless nights in the end. After all, that's what arting is all about.
