From now until the book's September release and beyond, I (I'm Justin, by the way) will be posting sketches, designs, rough artwork, humorous anecdotes and exclusive first-looks, all related to Hero House. In honor of the website's official launch, I'm going to lead off with a first look at the first three pages of Hero House. You don't get to see the actual Hero House in these pages, but it should give you a good idea of the tone of the book and introduce you to our most important character, Nate Hedges:

Look how far you've come! Congrats, Justin! I remember talking about this back in the days when we shared the same office (building)
ReplyDeleteIt looks very good. I love the Canterbury Tales scene with the default answer—"Christ-like Imagery"—and the attractive redhead. I look forward to reading it. I'm very pleased to see you've become a writer of comics.
