Don’t Call it a Collab
As I’m working on a handful of projects I’ve started a little something-something with my lady Jad Montenegro. We’ll be taking turns talking about our progress:
So John came to me with a proposal to do a comic together, aside from the sheer audacity of a previously conceptualized “relationship strip” *John slaps hand to forehead*, he wanted to do another project entirely, one that wasn’t borne of a need to shamelessly indulge our egos, and when I heard his idea to wrap the storyline around one simple, beautiful concept, there was nothing I could do but to agree.
I mean, come on:
Cavemen versus Aliens.
.
Tell me how any self-respecting sci-fi lover could resist taking that and not going to TOWN with it, you know?
Drawing inspiration from the likes of sci-fi romance and tall-tale spinning Arthur C. Clarke to the classic iconoclasm (iconoclasstic?) of Isaac Asimov, to Frank Herbert’s Duneverse sagas and Bradbury’s moody, chronicling cynicism (to name just a few of the authors I grew up reading), I guess I’m pretty set for helping create this rippin’ yarn of a graphic novel. If anything, I’ve certainly got the enthusiasm covered.
I’ve never done this before, but that’s where John comes in: he’s good at showing me the ropes.
Huh.
I zoned out for a bit.
Anyway, that’s what me and the boy have got in the kitchen, and hopefully we’ll have something in the coming weeks for you folks to sink your teeth into.

ive heard of this story, john sort of gave me an idea how the story goes. and it left me having dreams of cavemen eating aliens.
i dont like aliens much, cavemen are okay, but cavemen versus aliens is the bomb! im so excited about this project!
and oh, you two really do talk the same! be sure to have your dna tested, you could be twins yknow.
We’re totally clones. Sometimes it feels like masturbation.
“be sure to have your dna tested, you could be twins yknow.”
Well geez. What do you think I bought that gold lame’ bikini for?! And those two gold ensaymadas i had spray painted…
