Kenny Powers. Just a man with a mind for victory and an arm like a f’ing cannon.
Based this off the ‘87 Topps baseball card set. I know some people hated that design, but personally, I loved it. I was super into collecting baseball cards when this set came out, so I have very fond memories of opening pack after pack of these cards.
I even went as far to seek out the correct font (and figure out the horizontal stretching!) for the name plate. I’m weird like that.

59 hours left to back my graphic novel, VERY NEAR MINT, on Kickstarter!

Another stretch goal was unlocked yesterday! Anyone who pledges at least $35 gets a brand new, 20 page VNM one-shot (with the Hellboy/Mignola inspired cover above!)… this is a limited edition item, so don’t delay!

There’s still a few of the limited reward tiers left, like a 3 x 3 foot painting, a mural (you could get a mural in your house like the ones I paint for Tijuana Flats!), a variant cover and more! Check it out.

In addition to the covers, I’ve also attached some preview pages from the book… I wish I could show more, but every page is a spoiler! 

Anyway, don’t miss out on the book, I promise it’s going to be a super fun ride! I’m really proud of it.

VERY NEAR MINT 3 + KICKSTARTER + YOU = AWESOME.

Hey guys, the Kickstarter project for VNM 3 is up and running. We’ve already succeeded in passing the funding goal, and now it’s time for some sweet stretch goals… (2 of which have already happened!)

Currently, if you spend $15 or more, you’ll receive the following with your rewards:

  • the VNM Masterpieces Trading Card Set!
  • A 18x24 poster, with all-new art!

The next stretch goal is a limited edition BOOK PLATE for each and every Kickstarter backer who spends $15. The book plate is individually signed and numbered, full color, and features all new art made exclusively for the plate. The book plate is a 100% Kickstarter EXCLUSIVE item, and you won’t be able to get one anywhere else. Ever. That’s a promise.

PLEASE check out the project…

…did I happen to mention that Jim Mahfood (aka Food One!) has contributed a pin-up to VNM 3?! It’s AMAZEBALLS. If you back the project, you can check out a sneak peek of it!
