I drew this pretty much just so I could draw a gunpowder explosion the way Jack Kirby did on the cover of Captain America No. 1, which is of a really crazy fight scene that has Captain America punching Hitler in the face.
I was born, raised and educated in Manhattan and still live here, drawing full-time. Clients include The New Yorker, The New York Times, Fantagraphics, MTV, IFC Films, Random House, The Believer, Bloomberg, J Walter Thompson, The National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico City and many more. I also draw the weekly Metro Diary illustration for The New York Times.
