ARN ANDERSON: My Life As The Enforcer

ARN ANDERSON: MY LIFE AS THE ENFORCER is a new biographical graphic novel detailing the life and in-ring career of professional wrestler Arn Anderson. This 128-page graphic novel spans from the earliest days of his youth in rural Georgia being raised by his grandparents to his entry into professional wrestling, through his formation of the legendary faction "The Four Horsemen" and all the way to his retirement as an in-ring performer.

Written by Dirk Manning with Arn Anderson, this book is told through both modern narration framing vignettes (fully illustrated by Shawn Daley) and extended flashback storytelling sequences (fully illustrated by Colm Griffin). The book is being lettered by Justin Birch, edited by Drena Jo, and proudly published by Source Point Press.


Cover by Colm Griffin (pencils, inks and Colours) & Shawn Daley (Older Arn pencils)

Rise of the TMNT

I have been a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan since I was a little kid. It may have been the first VHS that I ever saw. The new film was released on Netflix recently and so I worked on this for the past few nights as a warm down. Leo is still the coolest!!

Star Wars: A Skywalker Story

One day I will work on a Star Wars comic/project. For now though, here is a little cover I made for a book that doesn't exist. Just as a sample with the hopes that people see it and want some more star wars from me.

Stan Lee's Superhero Kindergarten

Growing up a comic book & movie fan, I don't have words to describe how happy/overjoyed I was to get to work on a project with two of my childhood/adult heroes. Stan Lee and Arnold Schwarzenegger. I come from a very small town in Ireland. And I got to work on a show from two of my heroes all from the comfort of my small town studio. It is madness. I even got to draw a young hero with 'spider' type powers :) 

Unfortunately this was the great Stan Lee's final production before his passing but that makes it all the more special to me.

Jumpsuit Johnson: Hard Charges

I am delighted to officially release my new book Jumpsuit Johnson: Hard Charges. It is the first volume in a 3 volume arch. This book is very much a love letter to buddy cop action comedy's of the 90's. But it is set in my hometown of Carlow, Ireland. It features many friends and places where I grew up.

If you fancy picking up a copy, please head over to RogueComicsIreland.

Nova Unleashed

They say "if you want something, you put it out into the universe". Well here I am again putting these things out into the universe. I have drawn this guy more than I draw most people. Except for maybe Spider-Man or the characters of Ocean City. One day I will get to do something official. Until then, here is another sample cover for your lovely eyes.

JG and the BC Kids

Here is the featured film poster that myself and Morgan O'Brien created for the upcoming Animated Feature film JG and the BC Kids. I worked on the film and a Design Supervisor lending a hand to all areas of the production that I could. These areas included animation, character designs, background painting and poster design/illustration. I can't wait to see it in cinemas soon.

Sam Vs Sam (Nova Vs Cannonball)

Nova is one of my favourite characters to draw. I enjoyed the series of both Richard Rider and Sam Alexander. But Sam was my first experience of Nova, so he is who I associate with the character of Nova. 

I have been drawing a lot of Nova and Champion covers lately. So I decided to do a little short story for my portfolio with two very talented people. Rob Jones on letters and Gillian Dempsey on Editor duty.

Nova and Cannonball, or as I call it Sam vs Sam.
