Don’t slow down. Don’t get comfortable. Don’t think you’re safe. Be ready to run. Something sinister lurks in this graphic novel that is part psychological thriller and part horror story.

AAAAAH Mountainhead, a book that’s near and dear to me. My brother Ryan poured his soul into the art, John Lees with a wild and tragic script, with Doug Garbark blowing us all away with gorgeous colors.

The concept: This book is an ad campaign to visit hell on earth, and if you complain your dad isn’t going to turn this car around because he’s already transformed into a monster mouth and ate your mom.

Braeriach, our setting, has so many subtle details and even an easter egg subplot. I made an official fake chamber of commerce logo, fake Canadian outdoors type organization, postcard, vintage motel, etc. It was a blast taking this book and using it as a goofy branding exercise.

Mid-century design was a huge inspiration. It’s one my favorite era’s of illustration and design and always synonymous with the old travel brochures tucked away in drawers at my grandparents house.

What an honor to work on Stan Sakai’s Grasscutter Artist’s Select edition. These are fantastic projects because of all the pieces involved–great art, hardcovers, dust covers, slip cases, and tray cases–it’s a big packaging design bonanza!

Concept: This kicked off IDW Publishing’s Usagi Yojimbo books. I’ve been able to work on all of them so far and I consider them one line of books and carry over design elements from each one to the next. From swords and arrows, clean lines, beautiful caligraphy–there’s a plethora of material to repurpose for design.

This is a departure from the Madman Artist’s Select where kitsch is replaced by negative space giving it a much more reserved, distance feeling. There’s several landscape scenes within that call back to Japanese woodcut illustrations. They’re meditative and calm, and, maybe I’m projecting, but Usagi always seems lonely.

As a bonus, when you work on a big fat book, it’s always cool when it can fit a sword on the big fat spine.
