Derby Doodles and Dutch Pride

Holy Cow, I've been off the blog for a while, eh? Well, here's a quick update. That nasty flu turned out to be pneumonia. Fun stuff. I was wishing that there was a market for lung butter. I'd have been a wealthy man. I'm mostly better, but there is still some rattle when I breathe.

I'm in twitter now -  http://twitter.com/gavindelint. Follow me. I'll try to amuse you at least as much as I offend you.

I'm still drawing, I haven't quit to farm pineapples or to go to private detective school (not that I haven't thought of it), but all of my drawing has been for projects that haven't really seen the light of day yet. There's the comic that I, along with my buddy and writer Jake Gosselin, will be pimping at Comic-Con International in a couple of weeks (HOLY CRAP IT'S ONLY A COUPLE OF WEEKS AWAY). There's also a Roller Derby related project that I'm working on with my wife that we should be launching sooner than later. It's had me in a derby frame of mind, so here are some derby doodles, just so that this post has some art.

Also, I've been devoting a little bit of time to following the Netherlands as they go for the World Cup. Finals this Sunday, versus Germany or Spain. HUP HOLLAND!!!

Brutarian magazine

Greetings from the graveside. I'm on day 8 of a nasty flu that has eaten away at all my spare (and non-spare) time, has make be a weak, shaky mess, and has caused me to tear up while reading zombie comic books. Not fun. The good news is that I have some art to share. The latest issue of Brutarian is available for sale, and it features not only an interior illo but also sports a fancy full colour cover from Mr Gavin. A. de Lint (that's me). Here's the cover

and here's the interior illustration for a creepy story called Block by Glen Alan Hamilton.

You can get your hands on a copy by sending five American dollars to

Tomorrow, I book my room for Comic Con in San Diego. So very excited!

The Comedy Grind

Happy belated New Year everybody. Sorry for the post drought - as usual, I've been super busy but I have little to share. Well, I had little to share. I have a few new things to put up.

A pretty dynamic character named Shawn Hall is establishing a weekly comedy show here in Regina. It's called The Comedy Grind and it'll be taking place at Gabbos on Saturdays starting on Feb 13. You should get out there and support it. What's this got to do with me? Well, I did up a logo...

...and a poster.

The other thing I did recently was a logo for a trucking company, GTP Trucking Inc.

So, besides that, my main focus has been putting together a comic book with my buddy Jake Gosselin. We, along with another buddy Rob Simon - the brains behind Zoey Zeta and the Sisters of Power, are l are planning a trip down to San Diego for Comic Con this summer. Can't wait.

The Book Is Now For Sale!

First, the big news. 31 GHOSTS: THE BOOK IS READY! Click the book (or go here) to get your copy.

Other than that, life's been busy busy busy. I've done a couple of shirt designs, I'm working on an illustration and a cover for a magazine and I have a few projects in the queue awaiting my attention. Not getting as much sleep as I'd like, but that's the price of popularity, I guess. As these things because ready for viewing, I'll update accordingly.

31 Ghosts #31!!!

King may look sad, but he's fine. He just ate a lemon.

31 Ghosts #29

You you want to make a specific request, head on over to my contact page and let me here from you. Thanks.

Speaking of Halloween, my son has recently scared the crap out of me. He came home from day care with a picture of Scooby Doo and the gang that he'd coloured. I've scanned it for your enjoyment.

Honestly, he's a very well adjusted young lad. I'm assuming he only had a red marker at his disposal. But I'm sleeping with one eye open.

Also, if you're looking for some great, spooky Halloween music, check out Timber Timbre. They have a free EP available for download here.
