WELCOME
Hey Friends! It feels awkward to send a newsletter when there is so much heavy stuff going on in the world right now. So let me just say that I hope you've been safe and well since the last time I newslettered. I've got some Jonna and Fire Power updates as well as some info on my 2022 commissions, so if you're up for that - keep reading! If not, we hope you are healthy and safe wherever you are.
FIRE POWER!

COMMISSIONS
It's Commission Time!!

This Friday, March 4th at 11 am central I'm going to open for commissions in my store.   Commissions will be completed at a rate of about four a month and will be completed in the order they come in from my store. After buying a commission, Laura and I will email you (within a couple weeks) to let you know what month I expect to have your commission done and to confirm your character request and mailing address. PLEASE, PLEASE include your character(s) request and costume version (if you have a preference) with your order - it will greatly help keep things straight on our end.

If you are interested in a commission, please read the listing in my store for all the details. PLEASE DO NOT BUY A COMMISSION SPOT WITHOUT READING ALL OF THE DETAILS! 

There will be a limited number of commissions being offered so they may sell out quickly. Big Cartel does not hold your cart so please check out quickly for your best chance. If you are not okay with waiting several months (or longer) for a piece, please don't buy a spot. Commissions will be completed starting in May and continuing through December.  We've used this method for commissions for the last several years and it's worked very well. Almost every single one was completed the month it was promised. Due to ongoing issues with USPS (and our apparent bad luck with international shipping) these will be US shipping only. Sorry!

And lastly, if you miss out on a comission spot, please don't email us and let us know how much we ruined your day and/or offer a bunch of suggestions on what we should be doing instead. We apologize in advance if you miss a spot. Hopefully I will open for more at a later time. I can promise you we are always trying our best to make as many folks happy as we can, but I am just one person and there is only so much work I can commit to. We appreciate your kindness and understanding. 
BIT OF BATMAN FUN
I posted this on Instagram and Twitter recently but thought I would share it here too. This is an image for a Batman pitch I did years ago. I've always wanted to draw a Batman story that takes place in the snow so I pitched one to DC. I got a lot of great feedback on the pitch but after sending several versions of it in, it ultimately went nowhere. No hard feelings, it's just the way it goes sometimes! I did some design work with the pitch, including a snow-ready batmobile - maybe I'll share that in a future newsletter. Hope you enjoyed this little peek into what could have been.
COMING SOON TO YOUR COMIC SHOP!
