ROB OSBORNE | Go Forth & Conquer

Looking for indie comics in Central Texas? This weekend, I’ll be at Staple!, Austin’s independent media expo.

James O’Barr, the creator of The Crow, is unable to attend the big Staple! festivities, so in his place, you’ll find Yours Truly. Table 28. Lots of art prints and comics.

Come by, and we can hug it out.

Today is going to be even huger (more bigger?). I’m wearing a tie in the studio. The look is “business kickass”, complete with jeans and Chuck Taylor’s.

Looks like the lid got blown off the Star Wars Yoga stuff. Not sure what to make of it, so I’m keeping my head down.

In the meantime, I’ve placed huge orders for paper, shipping tubes, and shipping tape.

Back to work.

when the internet feels like a warm, snuggly blanket…and then another blanket…and then another? Until you’re under a heap of internet blankets, and the dog has piled on top. Now, you’re just on fire. Internet fire.

Update: According to the Etsy stats, my shop has just gone over 10,000 views for the day. Thanks for looking, friendly, geeky internet people.

New for 2012, a brand new edition of the G.I. Joe H2H art print. Available today.

SOLD

While I’ve been away from the blog and facebook, I’ve been working on a load of new art. I’ve been experimenting. And I’ve become rather obsessed with classic comic book art. All over again, I’ve been captivated by the way that Roy Lichtenstein took comic book art, and by placing it on the canvas, allowed us to see comic art (and the CMYK printing technique) in a new way.

You may have seen the original Oh, Clark! art print. Today, I’ve released a single variant edition. That means there’s only one of these.

Only one of these Oh, Clark! Golden Pulp prints is available, and this variant will not be reproduced. This is a 1/1 limited edition, signed and numbered. And available now in my Etsy shop.
