I recently read the Armor Hunters crossover event by Valiant, which spans 5 trade paperbacks with an event series itself, two tie-ins from prominent Valiant books in XO Manowar and Unity, and two offshoot spinoff miniseries. It was a daunting task, and curtailed my reading of catching up on the Valiant universe for a time […]

Writing Success
I just read a brilliant post by author Tim W. Long (Who is by no means associated with me, probably doesn’t even know me or who I am, and totally disavows me and in no way endorses me even looking at his words, haters!) on writing success, and he’s 100% right. It’s cruder than I […]
Book Review: The Black Witch by Laurie Forest
The review you’ve all been waiting for! Note: there are some spoilers in here as I had to really get into what I liked or didn’t like in the book, but I tried to keep the ending in tact as much as I could for those who are interested in actual reading. I discovered The […]
Here’s The Deal With The (Future) Cover Reveal
Alright. So I have some preliminary art for For Steam And Country. And it is HOT. I mean about the hottest piece of art I’ve ever seen. Which is good, cuz this is going to be the hottest book you’ve ever seen. I really REALLY shouldn’t share it before I have all the lettering done […]
Marvel Comics: When You Screw Up So Bad, You Can’t Even Spin It
When I broke the story that Marvel Comics blackballed Trump supporters and Christian writers from their ranks, very few were paying attention to their steep decline. A FAKE NEWS comic website even took to mocking me about bringing it up. No one is laughing at the funny books now. Within a couple of weeks story […]
The Battle For The Areth Continent Is Fast Approaching
Have you done your duty and signed up for the Grand Rislandian Army? We’ll need every boot on the ground to make sure that the evil Wyranth Army doesn’t prevail over our forces, guided by King Malaky XVI. Most of the action is on Facebook right now.

Comic Review: Eleanor And the Egret #1
Being a big Chew fan, when I saw that John Layman had another comic out with a very silly concept, I went to check it out. With Sam Keith, I thought I could expect some quirky art and quirky story like I saw in Chew. This issue sets up one of those “what’s going on” […]
Book Review: Cartwright’s Cavaliers by Mark Wandrey
I picked up the audiobook edition of Cartwright’s Cavaliers by Mark Wandrey, expecting pretty much what I saw on the cover — big mech fights. While he certainly delivered on that cover promise in this book, he also delivered a lot more. Forgive me if I misspell any names, as having the audio version meant […]
To Message Fiction Or Not To Message Fiction
I don’t write message fiction. In fact, a lot of the actual criticism of my book (when there is any, most folk just love it!) hits when people read it as if they’re braced for some sort of lecture on morality from me… and they don’t find one other than bad guys with lots of […]
Comic Review: X-O Manowar #2
A few months ago, I swore off of individual comic book issues forever. On a whim last month, I picked up X-O Manowar #1, and like comic book superheroes who have their epic deaths – it didn’t last long. I was so impressed by the issue that I went out and bought the pre-order bundle […]
The Last Crusade: There Is No Compromise
God’s Word is clear: you are either giving yourself over to Him, or you’re giving yourself over to evil. There’s no in between. You can’t half-commit to Christ. By consequence you can’t “think he’s a great teacher with some good wisdom” and yet ignore his message. Either his words were true, or they were not […]
