This is freaking fantastic!

I especially love Cantankerous Cat! Hahaha, he speaks de funnyness.

This is really awesome! That first pic looks very golden age.

I actually just started a 365 comic thing today! I suck at drawing, but I'm hoping that doing it daily will help me out with that. And it's just fun to do. I don't think I could ever draw a legit super hero kinda comic, but I'd like to write one someday.

Dude... it would be an absolute utter waste to not tap into your talent for comic illustration. Just do it.

Cool!

Well,I am (was) working comics in the Croatian magazines, but simply there is no money. Love is always on the side of comics, but I'd like to earn something and i constantly switch between illustration, cartoon and design.
I published about 100 pages of comics... and ill be back, for sure with my grafic novel. I have great publisher, but only for croatian market.
I know people, they say: do comics, its great, but fck, i must eat something.

I have never been a real comic reader but I do appreciate the amazing artistry in them - great work you!

Rico, you're a real talent, dude. Brilliant work.

... You should definitely be giving this a shot, I'm sure you'll succeed.

BTW, I saw your tutorial in Digital Artist Magazine. It was really informative :)

U R SUPER SUPER SUPER TALENT artist, really really good

Nice, Rico. I'm looking into Kickstart and Xeric as possible funders of comic ventures. You're right - there's seemingly no money for comic chaps.

I've got two cooking. One bigger, novel-esque, more serious in scope, sci-fi-dystopia comic and one smaller, silverage-feel, banter-and-battle superhero comic.

The latter's synopsis goes something like: The old gods used to have greater strength and acted in the day-to-day doings of man. Their monstrous proxies on earth (werewolves, zombies, vampires, warlocks, witches, fairies, goblins, ghouls, yetis, etc) no longer strike fear, or have adequate mindshare, to keep the old gods powerful. They’ve been turned into pop culture and entertainment and the old gods’ powers have waned as the ages of reason plowed them under.

The old gods combine efforts, using the last of their strength, to create a new generation of monsters on earth. Combining their powers of creation in such a large way sapped them and banished them from the realm of man as result. Through the fear and chaos created by these new monstrous demigods, each of the core old gods is reawakened in reverse order of magnitude (small gods require less men to resort to superstitions and faith in order to be resurrected).

One exceedingly naive, meek, and pure of spirit man who was converted during the great last-ditch monster creation of the old gods rebels and finds some part of his humanity (though not a heap of it). He seeks others like himself and vanquishes his ilk in the process.

He, and the other super-powered (by comic book standards) monster-men and women form a pact of revenge for their lost lives and loves and strike back against the old gods. They come to learn that their own notoriety for good also strengthens the old gods and must themselves be forever lurking in the shadows and disconnected from the realms of man.

I'm doing this book as my first 'cause the format allows me to play with superheroes, monsters, '60s style (think Kirby and Lee) episodic plots, and hammy dialog.

i like it, very much.
And your style will be cool for this.
Just tell us news here:)

I have my synopsis, not on paper yet, but this story i will draw one day for sure. It is Fiction about .my experience of war in Croatia 1991.-1995. my days on field and shit.
when normal people from childhood take a rifle in hand and become what they become.
Comic book should have elements of personal experience, fiction, action, drama , and above all love.
I even got some money from ministry of culture a few years ago, but I gave up because of my real work.

so damn good!!!!
