Happy 2010  everybody,

With my Wife and Daughter out of state visiting family I dived into work to distract myself and i totally missed the whole new years celebration thing D’oh! Anyhow I feel rather accomplished with the amount of work I’ve got through this season and just when i thought it’d let up a little ….More gets piled on. Its all good though because i tried to schedule things for more commission time and art direction distractions *crosses fingers*

My Hero Initiative Wolverine: Weapon X 100 project cover is up on Ebay right now.*Please Bid* the 100 project is sponsored by Marvel and the HERO Initiative, it includes over 100 hand sketched original wolverine covers by Comic superstar artists (and schleps like me) with all proceeds from the book benefiting the HERO Initiative. The Hero Initiative creates a financial safety net for comic creators who may need emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and an avenue back into paying work. Since inception, the Hero Initiative has been fortunate enough to benefit over 40 creators and their families with over $400,000 worth of much-needed aid, fueled by your contributions! It’s a chance for all of us to give back something to the people who have given us so much enjoyment. So please PLEASE bid! As an added bonus, I will also provide an original sketch card commission to the individual that wins my cover!

Attention All sketch carders…

For all of you Sketch card collectors out there please bear with me, I have received close to a hundred of your emails recently, mostly pertaining to the various 5Finity sets I’ve contributed to (Dean Yeagle’s Mandy, Zombies Versus Cheerleaders and Moonstone maximum). I’ve tried to email you all back personally but its taking forever to do so. I apologize if I don’t get to email you personally. I am totally and completely buried in work at the moment and I will try to open up commissions and also sell return cards the second i can devote the time to do it properly. As it looks Mid to late January is looking very promising. Once I announce openings for commissions and post the sale for return cards it will be first come, first serve from that point. I greatly appreciate your understanding and patience. You guys are the ones that allow me to do what I love AND keep a roof over my head and for that I cant thank you enough.

Thanks Much Jammers, I’ll be back soon with more art and stuffs

-BEN OUT!
