Poseidon interview with Geekmom at Wired.com



Well, it's not the actual god of the sea that they interview, but rather me, talking about my latest book. I had a really great in-depth conversation about Olympians in general and Poseidon in particular with Melissa 'Geekmom' Wiley over at the incredible Wired.com. If you're interested in giving it a read, as well as seeing a photo of my Masters of the Universe collection, click here.

I'm an official (MTV) Geek now!

This is just a screenshot-- see me talk and draw at the link below 

I sat down recently with the good folks from MTV Geek for a video interview where I talked about how to draw Poseidon, the Olympians series, and my very own special feud with the God of the Sea. You can see it all here.

RELEASE THE KRAKEN!! Poseidon: Earth-Shaker comes out today!


I know, I know, the Kraken isn't really from Greek mythology (in fact, if you've ver seen me in person,  I devote a chunk of my presentation to how bogus the Kraken is) but it does make for a good headline.

...so I made this comic about it.


You can vote for me here. It literally takes seconds, and if you vote for me, and tell me, I'll make more zany comics like this. Also? I'll be your best friend.
