ARES ARISE! Guest Post #7-- Dean Haspiel!

The seventh in a daily celebration by awesome cartoonists of the much-maligned god of war himself, Ares, on the occasion of the publishing of Olympians Volume 7, Ares: Bringer of War.  Today's entry: Dean Haspiel!
Dean brings us an awesome, superheroic (or is it supervillainic?) iteration of the God of War. I don't know about you, but the combo of bold colors, super-slick art and a cool logo leave me hankering for a Dean Haspiel helmed Ares comic.





Emmy award winner and Eisner, Harvey & Ignatz Award nominee Dean Haspiel created BILLY DOGMA, illustrated for HBO's "Bored To Death," was a Master Artist at the Atlantic Center for the Arts, is a Yaddo fellow, a playwright, helped pioneer personal webcomics with the invention of ACT-I-VATE.com and TripCity.net, and is the co-founder of Hang Dai Editions in Brooklyn, NY. Dino has written and drawn many comic books, including The Fox, Spider-Man, Batman, X-men, The Fantastic Four, Wonder Woman, Deadpool, Godzilla, Mars Attacks and collaborations with Harvey Pekar, Jonathan Ames, Inverna Lockpez, Jonathan Lethem, Mark Waid, and Stan Lee.
