Description
"Goodnight Sweet Prince."-Glinda
This is by far the craziest page I've done for ECB. Lot's of fun using the colors and panel layouts to tell the story. I hope you enjoy it.

very cool man, I really like you work and use of color. It is a neat to see a comic that you can claim is black and white with so much damn color.

I like how the pages have gotten more colorful as the series progresses.
Any chance of you putting out a collection when the series is done? I wish I had money to spend when I saw you at the Long Beach Comic Con. I really like your take on Oz. I never get tired of Oz stories for some reason.

Right now I'm focusing on the issues. There may be a trade but right now I'm focusing on the books.
Oz is timeless. That's what got me into the idea of reimagining it. It's been really fun because the themes are so broad there is a lot to work with.

Thanks. Sometimes I go a bit crazy with the colors but I want it to look different than mainstream comics. I'm glad you like the writing. I really enjoy the process of writing more than the drawing at this point. It's a real challenge to get the right voice for the characters.

Great job capturing the terror in his eyes on the large shot of Tin. Sweet as always.

Thanks. I'm trying to experiment with the ideas of layering narratives. Have two different stories happening on the same page.

Busy? yes. But not hard to read or cluttered. I think looking at it now (after my brain reformed)I like the panel frames-shutter fx around the panels of the witch. So simple but very effective. Also The witch has a little Oeming vibe to me, I like it.
