"I Hate It When He Does That" part 1! When Batman visits the scene of a break-in, the GCPD expect him to blame Catwoman. But Bruce smells a different scent in the air...one that reminds him of being a young boy, touring the world with Alfred. Could his past be coming back to haunt him?

SKETCH MONSTERS 2!!!!

SKETCH MONSTERS VOL. 2 : THE NEW KID IS OUT TODAY!
BY JOSHUA WILLIAMSON & VICENTE NAVARRETE

Tony’s nervous about his first day at a new school. Instead of acting normally, he tries being the class clown, the teacher’s pet, and sadly… even the bully. He draws his other identities as Monsters in his sketchbook. But Tony’s monsters escape all over the school! Thankfully, Mandy also goes to Tony’s school and can lend a helping hand! Can Tony and Mandy catch all of the new Sketch Monsters before they demolish the school?!

KRANG!

Coming in April...

KRANG!
From the Masks and Mobsters team, yay!

TMNT VILLAIN MICROSERIES #1 (OF 4) KRANG (C: 1-0-0)
(W) Joshua Williamson (A) Mike Henderson (CA) Tyler Walpole
Krang was not always the feared warlord he is today. Once he was the spoiled prince of a falling dynasty. One disastrous mission to a penal colony planet changed all of that! Stranded by himself and surrounded by enemies, Krang faces the ultimate test for survival! See how this seemingly helpless alien grew to become a legend… and a leader!

This was one of those projects that is a bit out of my wheel house, but I had a vision for what I wanted to do and IDW dug it. Mike Henderson and I are super excited to be doing the Krang book. It's a departure from the rest of our work on Masks and Mobsters but hopefully you can see the style similarities.

Masks and Mobsters was listed as USA Today's Best of 2012 for Digital Comics.

Masks and Mobsters Holiday Special and the RED CROSS

One of the best things to happen this year has been the release of MASKS and MOBSTERS.

To celebrate and say thank you we have put together a special Holiday issue of Masks and Mobsters. It's our own take on a classic holiday story. It's one of my favorite stories of all time and I hope you appreciate our homage to it.

All of the creative team proceeds from this issue will be donated to the Red Cross. We've had a good year when others haven't and wanted to give a gift to those who need it. Every thing that Mike and I make will go directing to the Red Cross. 

Mike and I knew that we wanted to do something special with the holiday issue. My original idea was to offer it for free, but Mike knew better and suggested that we donate the money to the Red Cross. I immediately knew Mike was right and started to set things up. This is not a promotional tool. Just our attempt at giving something back. 

Here is a link to the an interview about the issue.

Also here is a link to a Reddit AMA where Mike and I can answer all your questions about Masks and Mobsters! CLICK HERE

And of course a link to download the actual comics. I hope you enjoy it and have a wonderful Holiday season.
