Year Book

At the kubert school there is a tradition that everyone (almost everyone) has what they call a "year book" In which classmates draw in a sketchbook for you. They get passed around like a new fish in prison...

it was around second year that friends of fine were cool enough to start drawing forever winter characters in the thing. Since I started out this week with old Kubert school work I figured I might as well Post some more "from the vault stuff", embarrass some of my friends by posting older art and stall because the Ink is still drying on the thing I want to post later this week.

here are a few, more to be posted at a date To be determined.


Fabio Redivo got the whole thing started when He came out of the gates Guns blazing to start the second year section of my year book. As for his message to keep dodging balls? our class started a massive dodgeball movement and we would play every thursday. It's also important to note the original title of "the last ronin" Forever winter was originally the subtitle.

Fabio is a teacher at the kubert school now and more of his awesome work can be seen at...

This one is also from Second year done by Eric Butt. Eric got nervous about "not being able to find work" "starving to death" That he let sal pressure him into the animation program. Still he was kind enough to do this up for me. even if he got the start time for JAG wrong, Nobodies perfect.

Eric was drafted and killed in Vietnam Or he works for volition inc, the video game co. that made Red Faction Guerrilla I can't remember.

Jumping to the start of third year now, The killah Rian Millah dropped a bombshell, a double Page spread. This one remains one of my favorites in the entire year book, not only because its awesome but also because when asked why James had been shot with arrows, rian replied "I figured if there were people running around with swords, there must be bows and arrows." The man makes a good point.

More of rians work can be seen (including the brilliant MAN-GULL) at.

Last but not least with have evil robo's Eric Schock. Eric was one of the first people I met at the Kubert school, I remember hanging out on the porch of the mansion talking shop with eric the first weekend we moved in. The Kubert school dorm is kind of a crazy place that first weekend, its kind of like the wild west, 30 something guys from around the country (world! big ups to brazil!) crammed into the "mansion" portfolios and sketch books flying around as everyone sizes everyone up...racing to claim studio space and building desk. its madness. The kind of wonderful madness I would do again tomorrow if I could.

schock is a cool dude and always very supportive of me and my work. So much in fact he was kind enough to give me five pages of space in the latest issue of "ash tray comics" Schock knocked this one out for me towards the end of third year.
