TWEETS
STORY

Joe Somiano risked it all by dropping out of college to pursue his childhood dream of becoming a pro wrestler, much to the disapproval of his father. King Crown Jr. is a second-generation pro-wrestler, and current Heavyweight Champion of Super Pro. K.O.!, that drinks more than he trains. Will Joe ever get a shot at wearing the SPKO Title? And will King Crown Jr. stay focused enough to defend the Championship  at any costs?

Some Great Hyper Force Neo Coverage!

Hi everyone,

This week saw coverage of Hyper Force Neo and a number of Spring Z2 comics like The Sweetness, Murder Ballads, and Legends. I put links to a bunch of sites on my Press Page.

Thanks to all the outlets that carried the story such as Nerdist, Vulture, Paste Magazine, and FanGirl Nation!

Also, I received a number of tweets and personal messages upon the annoucement. Thanks to all of you for always keeping up with my comic work. SPKO: GOld for Glory and Hyper Force Neo were announced in the same week (unexpectedly) and it was an amazing feeling. I won't soon forget it. 

The first Hyper Force Neo progress video is up here: It's Jarrett #19 

Sincerely,

Jarrett

Hyper Force Neo! New Monthly from Z2 Comics this Spring

Today has been wild. My new monthly comic, Hyper Force Neo!, was just announced on Nerdist. It'll be coming out from Z2 Comics this Spring :) It's for all ages and it's a combination of a lot of things I enjoy like robots, teen school drama, and aliens! Jeremy Lawson has done a beastly job with the colors too!  Check out the Nerdist write up here. There are even some exclusive pages there. 

I'll have more updates on SPKO: Gold for Glory and Hyper Force Neo! over the next couple of months now that I can "officially" discuss both projects. Life is good!

Guess What's In Previews? Super Pro K.O.!: Gold for Glory!

Yes! It's finally announced. Super Pro K.O.! Gold for Glory drops this Summer on June 29th, 2016. Please make sure to request it at your local book retailers!
 
It looks like my brother in arms and former roomie,  Kevin Burkhalter (Kevin Days A Week) scouted it first. I honestly am esctatic. I can't stress enough how packed this book it. It's just shy of 300 pages and it's an experience from beginning to end! I've been documenting progress on it for the past year or so but that's only a small fraction of what's inside. Below are some vids from my Instagram and Tumblr, which I update more frequently than here so definitely follow me :) 
I have some surprises in store before the release of SPKO: Gold for Glory! so definitely follow me on Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, and FB for the latest.
Later!

Great Times at the Super Pro K.O.! Show

I really enjoyed my talk at USCS the other day. The artists I met had tons of questions about comics, productivity, and inspiration. Those sort of meetings are just as motivational for me to stay focused and to work harder. Thanks to all who came out to the reception at FAB Gallery!

Check out some photos below.

This was one of my favorite legs out of my art trips for sure. Things are really picking up :) I'm already thinking of other galleries I'd like to feature this show. Art Basel in Miami would be the dream. More to come!
