\"NOT<\/a>

NOT a cameo of NFL Super Pro. Sorry, fans.<\/p><\/div>\n

For my latest Marvel Comics strip, a short Secret Origin story in the upcoming first issue of Lockjaw And The Pet Avengers<\/strong><\/a>, I got to do THREE things I’ve never done before:<\/p>\n

1)<\/strong> Draw football. It’s just never come up before.<\/p>\n

2)<\/strong> Work with writer Chris Eliopoulos<\/a><\/strong>, creator of the webcomic Misery Loves Sherman<\/strong> and writer\/artist\/etc. of Franklin Richards<\/strong><\/a> specials. (Not to be confused with Chris “Elio” Eliopoulos<\/a>, my long-time internet pal, also a very fine comics artist\/illustrator\/animator!) <\/em>Working with a new writer is always a challenge and a pleasure, because it forces me to think in an unfamiliar way about how to tell this person’s story visually, which helps keep me on my creative toes!<\/p>\n

3) <\/strong>Share art duties on a comic with Ig Guara<\/a><\/strong>, whose brilliance I have long since admired and envied. I’ve had the privilege of seeing his pencils for Marvel Adventures Avengers<\/strong> whenever he sends them in to Paul<\/a>, and we always huddle around the screen saying “Ooh! Ahhh!” because they’re just so damn GOOD.<\/p>\n

Lockjaw And The Pet Avengers #1! <\/strong>In stores May 6.<\/p>\n
