In the brief time we’ve been working on our book, we’ve had the chance to work with some very cool and reliable freelance creators. We also had the misfortune to work with one irreputable liar and thief (more about him at the bottom of this page). Below, grouped by job, are some of the great people we’ve had the pleasure of working with. (Look for this page to get very crowded soon as we add more hired guns to the list below!)

PENCILLERS:
     Patrick Traylor brought his manga-esque talents on board to pencil and ink "The Drastic Duo", the debut tale of that fun-lovin' team "The Bang and The Boogie" as well the short tale “Glory Days” which introduces readers to the golden age hero “American Pride.” Samples can be seen by clicking his name. ***Patrick if you're out there, drop me a line! I'd love to hear from you.***

     Diego Candia illustrated the introductory chapter of the "LeadSlingerStudios Presents: Halloween Special." Click his name to see samples of his lush ink-washed pages.

 

INKERS:
     James Taylor was kind enough to lend his skilled inks to the first chapter of "Hero on the Lam", the first appearance of HappyJack. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.

     John Carlson also jumped on board to put clean smooth inks on the short story "Mr Cameron goes to Neroesville", an itntroductory tale of our fair city. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.
 

 

LETTERERS:
     Ed Brisson skillfully lettered chapter one of our “Sherlock Hyde” story for the first book of “FRAMEWORKS” (put together by friend and PistolFist creator JS Earls). He then lettered issue 2 of "Revelations" for us and as long as he's willing, Ed will be our letterer of choice. Ed is a skilled and professional letterer who takes the job seriously and nails deadlines. Samples of his work can be seen by clicking his name.

     Jaymes Reed lettered up the introductory chapter of “Deaders” as seen in PRIMER #0 and the upcoming LSSP Halloween Special. Jaymes does great work and does it quick. Look for his name on more of our stories in the coming months. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.

     Thomas Andrew White lettered the first issue of Revelations for us and I have to give the man credit. I didn’t realize what a wordy book that was until I got the pages back from him. He really did a nice job with the limited amount of space we left him to work with. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.
 

 

COLORISTS:
     Larry Brown was generous enough to put his coloring skills to work on the Baltimore Comic Con Edition of Revelations #1. Great skills and a quick turn-around made Larry our go-to guy for this cover. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.

     John P Dickerson threw his hat into the ring for coloring for us. Unfortunately we didn’t use his final version for the cover, but we’re posting it here just so fans can see some of John’s hard work. Plus it’s always cool seeing another version of a cover. Samples can be seen by clicking his name.

     Lisa Jennings also did a wonderful job coloring the Baltimore Comic Con cover. Unfortunately we did not use hers, but we did use her final, colored version for the cover of "Revelations" issue 2. She's very talented and I hope we get to show off more of her work in the future. Samples can be seen by clicking her name.

 

LIARS, CHEATS, AND DISHONEST PEOPLE:
     We had the misfortune of hiring William Hightower of Baltimore, Md to pencil a 2 issue (42 page) story for us. After getting a signed contract back from William, we paid him a handsome deposit for his hard work to come. I even supplied him with Blue Line Pro boards as part of his compensation package. After a few weeks, I got very few progress reports, even less artwork but plenty of excuses. After a full year and no finished pages, I got some excuses of illnesses, but assurances that he would be hammering out the pages asap. Then... NOTHING. All communication stopped and William seems to have fallen off the face of the Earth. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you consider working with this man. Click here to see a copy of the signed contract as well as Williams contact information.

     William if you would like to contact us regarding the situation and clear your name, by all means e-mail me. I would love to hear from you, Jas
