Just thought I'd mention that a 14-page preview of my new comic, EMPOWERED, has been posted over at Dark Horse's website:

A further 5-page preview of another EMPOWERED short story is lurking over in "My Pics," if you wanna take a look.

EMPOWERED is a "sexy superhero comedy" I've been working on in my spare time; the project started as a joke (or, more accurately, from a bunch of "damsel in distress" art commissions I was trying to get through), but unexpectedly evolved into a "real comic," more or less. The first collection of EMPOWERED "drops" on March 7th from Dark Horse Comics, as a 6" X 9", 248-page, B&W trade paperback. Alas, due to pervasive sexual content (but no actual nudity! Really!), EMPOWERED will be shipped shrink-wrapped and parental-warning-labeled, lest mommies and daddies everywhere be outraged.

Anyhoo, here's the solicitation copy:

Not only is costumed crimefighter "Empowered" saddled with a less-than-ideal superhero name, but she wears a skintight and cruelly revealing "supersuit" that only magnifies her body-image insecurities. Worse yet, the suit's unreliable powers are prone to failure, repeatedly leaving her in appallingly distressing situations . . . and giving her a shameful reputation as the lamest "cape" in the masks-and-tights business. Nonetheless, she pluckily braves the ordeals of her bottom-rung superheroic life with the help of her "thugalicious" boyfriend (and former Witless Minion) and her hard-drinking ninja girlfriend, not to mention the supervillainous advice from the caged alien demonlord watching DVDs from atop her coffee table . . .

Also, more artwork from EMPOWERED (and a boatload of other artwork by yers truly) can be seen over at my new-ish DeviantArt page:

And now, back to the drawing board. Have a good one, everybody.
