 We’ve got great news for you Modern Mythological Menagerie folk:

 Ken Wright (pictured above) will be in attendance at the Modern Mythology Press booth at the December 6th signing at Charlie’s Comics (www.charliescomics.com)!

Ken Wright is the creator of Bushido Billy, Love Clots, and Bikini Automatic (the most recent issue of which was written by MMP Eric M. Esquivel, and pencilled/inked by both Mr. Wright and Dave Baker).

Ken will be available for Autographs, and custom sketches.  I’m asking for a Superman & Awesomenaut piece. It’s going to rule.

Modern Mythology Press strikes back, in their second amazing episode. It’s darker, grittier, and in the end Dave might not have a hand and may find out the true identity of his father.  Eric will probably die, and be replaced by a black, child, robot, and homicidal version before resurrecting (with a luscious mullet) and reclaiming his rightful place as the one, true last son of Chi-Town.

Modern Mythology Press co-founders Dave Baker and Eric M Esquivel talk about how they make comics, Superman, and Steve Ditko.

If you like short jews, dashingly handsome latino loverboys and comics, then this is the podcast for you.

Don’t forget kids, Eric and I will be appearing at the First Annual Tucson Comic Con Nov. 8!!

i’ll be really sad if i don’t see you there!

this is an unused cover for a not-as-yet-completed comic entitled “Zombies Vs Klansmen”. Here’s hoping that it’ll eventually get finished.

This is a page from a mini comic that Eric and I made for the last Pheonix Comic Con.

The cover to issue two colored by Arnie Bermudez!

This is an interior page from Comic Books Ruined My Life.

alright that’s all for now!

A simple reminder to our adoring public:

Eric M. Esquivel and David Baker of Modern Mythology Press have been invited as guests to the First Annual Tucson Comic Con, held on Saturday, November 8th from 10am to 7pm at the Four Points Sheraton on Speedway and Campbell.

The boys will debut the third issue of CHILDISH DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR AND SUPERIORITY, BIKINI AUTOMATIC VOLUME TWO, ISSUE ONE, and several secretely-named mini comix.

Be there, or be really sad when your friends tell you how awesome it was/ how cute the guys are in-person.

AND, if you really want to show some love: pick up a messenger bag, T-shirt, or button from our online store, and have us take a silver sharpie to that beauty. It’ll ascend to “priceless heirloom” status in a jiffy.

“in a jiffy”–does anyone really say that? I’ve never heard it aloud.

I was going to go with “right quick” but if just felt too forced. I think I’m more of an “in a jiffy” sort of guy.
Yeah.

I’m going to start using that in quotidian life. “IRL” as the kids say.

Yeah.

Watch out, world.

All right here we go… 

here’s blog number one…

this is kinda what i’ve been thinking about…

..

this little boy dinosaur i’ve been drawing repeatedly over the past few months. i cant get him out of my head.

this idea of playing with the combination of kids and costumes being a tad scary…

also having the kids being the scary ones and the suit being kinda larger than life and playful…     

i’ve been playing with word balloons and using them in conjunction with someone non sequitur imagery…

i’m not really happy with this image but i thought i’d throw it up here anyway…

i really like this image… the juxtaposition of jesus and “gangsta” culture i find VERY humorous 

ok.

hope you liked what i had to show!!!!
