HOTWIRE #4

noreply@blogger.com (steve pugh) — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 03:15:00 +0000

Hotwire #4 hits the printers. I went out to the San Diego comiccon and met the legendary Harry Knowles, it turns out he loves the book and name checks us in his round up of the show! As a cool bonus he recommends Kristen Bell as a good choice to play Alice on screen. I would definitely trust Kristen Bell with Alice, she's frighteningly smart!

OK, it's the first time I've been interviewed over the phone, and i seem to have developed a charming girlish giggle :-P
Anyway, here i am talking about Hotwire to a couple of genuinely nice guys who loves their comics: link

FREEDOM FORMULA

FREEDOM FORMULA

here's a cover i did for RADICAL'S FREEDOM FORMULA comic.

It's about street racing mechas, very cool.

I originally had the guy sliding towards the reader on his back, but that seemed to confuse everybody!

PIRATED- AAR!

DCP scan . . . . . . . . . . Original

So Shark-Man has turned up in a CBR pirate version, scanned by some guys named Team DCP.
How do i feel about it?
Well i dunno really.
Yeah, I'm kinda flattered in one way, but it's not like i can rationalize at it as an advert for a live concert in the way a musician can. It took three hard months to put Shark-Man #2 together, and we're not making much back.
There's the "reaching a wider audience" thing i guess, and there's no glory in being a moody old f*ck about it.
heh, I'm such a control freak. I almost feel like sending them the original art files- i'd spent two nights just getting the colour separations right for the printers, and it kills me to think kids are ending up reading such a bleached out VHS copy!

Alice's parka

...is gone. Here's the final costume for Hotwire, still with the hood and red longjohns. Detective Mobey glowers manfully at back.

Shark-Man #2

Shark-Man #2 released today at comic-con San Diego.

Bubble trouble for the caped cod!

Hey, looks like Hotwire's finally happening.

"Radical Publishing executive Barry Levine, co-founder and Senior VP Jesse Berger and Co-Publisher and Editor in Chief David Elliott, will be debuting their new company to the world at booth #2701, July 25th-29th at the 2007 San Diego Comic Con tradeshow"

...and Alice is all set to join in. There's some art in the Hotwire gallery to get the feel of what she's about, but for fun, here's a toon drawing of Alice H.
I originally wanted to draw a manga style Alice, hence the "Engrish" captions, (I love Engrish, it's like accidental poetry!) but she ended up a looking a bit Ronald Searle around the eyes, so i went with it .
And here's a link to the Comic Book Resources story on Radical Publishing.

Shark-man

noreply@blogger.com (steve pugh) — Mon, 26 Sep 2005 14:27:00 +0000

Photoshop Creative is a new Photoshop related tutorial and review magazine.
In this month's issue is a featurette about me, with some colour Shark-man art included in it's article about illustrators.
I don't really get to share any pearls of photoshoppy wisdom, but they did make my name nice and big, so fair play!

Hotwire

noreply@blogger.com (steve pugh) — Mon, 15 Aug 2005 04:01:00 +0000

Hotwire, a character I co-created with Warren Ellis, finally gets a life beyond pin-ups in her first published short story. It's named "Filthy", and will be printed in Atomeka Publishing's "Bojeffries Terror Tomes #1"

Alice Hotwire is a detective-exorcist for the London Metropolitan Police, and although she works in the ghost capital of the world, she's treated little better than the city rat-catcher.
Written and drawn by me, details on publication dates as i get 'em....

Popbot reader #1 pin-up featuring Ashley Wood's top tech tin ribbed robot, is available now, and contains a overly saucy little pin-up by me...you can buy it online from IDW Publishing
(I had to buy my own copy off ebay, which is a bit stingy of them for a fully painted illustration, i think!)
