The new Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Volume One collected book is out and it looks real good.
For the record, Murph had scheduled me to ink the new story by Jim Lawson, as well as the new frontispieces and epilogue by Jim and Murph. We both thought it would be fun and appropriate to reunite Jim and I for this collected volume. Unfortunately, by the time the pencils were ready for inking Mirage had instituted an "in-house artists only" policy and Murph had to remove me from the project... and Jim wound up inking himself.
I was, and remain, bummed.

It was/is a stupid decision.
I'd still like this as a poster though.

Total bummer about the new stuff! But now that I bought the book, I finally got to see your work on the older stuff--lovely. I think my favorite, inks-wise, is The Return of Savanti Romero, it really appeals to me. Jim Lawson's own inking on the newer stuff is awesome, too, but different--sharper, maybe? And not toned, I guess, so it's just black and white, whereas the older stuff has a lot more gray areas. I think the grays sort of suit Lawson's older style, actually, and I have trouble picturing that kind of inking on his newer work--though I'm sad we didn't get to see it.
Yes tokka, watch your mouth.
That is a really lame execution of a technicality.
Thanks rachel. That issue was my attempt at Jean Giraud "Moebius" inks. At least I tried to ink like Moebius but of course I could never come close to his genius.
Can you tell I love the man's art?
The grey areas are accomplished with Duo Shade board and I think Jim's art in this new collected Tales is his best to date!
Thanks Rose... much appreciated!
I'll have to get this new collection and see if I like it I wasn't to be on Jim's art in TMNT vol.4 but I was starting to like it towards the last issue of bad moon rising.

That does stink Ryan. I'm sorry that happened. Would have been cool if an exception could have been made. I still can't wait though to get my grubby little mitts on this new trade!
