About me:
’Scuse me, while I blurb this out!

For those of those not familiar with my powerfully ripped and toned body of work, let me immodestly declare myself to be one of the first writer/ artists in the American comics field to integrate the artistic and storytelling techniques of Japanese comics into my work. Yep, folks, I was definitely a manga-influenced pioneer (back in the wild-frontier days of the late 80s and early 90s), even going so far as to ride around in a covered wagon and fire my six-shooters in the air while bellowing “Yee-Haw,” pioneer-style! Okay, maybe I didn’t go that far.

If you wanna take a wee gander at my artwork, I've dumped a fair number of illustrations and comic pages over in the "My Pics" section. A far wider array of my work is a-lurking over on my deviantArt page, if you're interested.

Chief among my current projects, as my avatar image might hint to you, is the “sexy superhero comedy” comic Empowered, a book which I’m both writing and drawing for Dark Horse Comics. The first (248-page!) volume of this B&W epic of superheroic distress, low self-esteem, quasi-romantic humor and cheescakery aplenty ships on March 14th, incidentally.

I’m also the writer and layout artist for the six-issue Marvel Comics miniseries Iron Man : Hypervelocity , the first two issues of which should be On Comics-Store Shelves NOW! My other current job, BTW, is writing and drawing an “endpage” piece of Playstation-related humor for the videogame magazine PSM every month.


Back in the day, yo, I was prolly best known for one main project: namely, six miniseries worth of an idiosyncratic, future-shockalicious, original English-language comic based on Japanese SF author Haruka Takachiho's characters The Dirty Pair. (Hyperlink and "My Pics" sample images to follow, once I get around to updating this profile again...)

Either that, or I was known for writing and occasionally drawing a good many issues of Wildstorm's teen-superhero-team comic, Gen13. And, hey, let's not forget Scissors, Paper, Stone, my far-future take on DC’s popular Teen Titans! More recently, another Marvel project I wrote and laid out, Livewires, debuted to surprising critical acclaim... and equally (un)surprising low sales figures. Oh, well. (Again, hyperlinks to follow, eventually...)

GRITA / Tocada para violín fugaz / julio2008

De
tocada para violín fugaz. En una cena familiar, una tía que cursa una mestría en una universidad privada de aquí de Monterrey, fue la primera que me expuso el caso del violinista en el metro . Ella y el resto de sus compañeros de clase entraron en una discusión con su maestro. Él dijo que pensaba que el arte era para unos pocos, y el resto del grupo incluida mi tía pensaban lo contrario. Para respaldar su teoría el maestro expuso el caso de un reciente 'experimento' realizado en estados unidos donde pusieron a tocar a uno de los mejores violinistas, y nadie se detuvo a escucharlo probando así que la humanidad a tocado fondo. No recuerdo bien que respondí, cuando me preguntaba que opinaba del caso. El maestro debió de haberse referido al arte en particular, dije, a ese de catálogos, de museos, subastas y ferias de arte, y no se referia a las artes en general. No es que defendiera al maestro desconocido para mi, o que pensara como él que el arte no es para todos. Pero si el maes...
