Thanks, Aaron! Man, do I know how Andrew feels in that picture…

Yesterday, Hero Spy featured five questions with me. Today it is Kyle’s turn.

Which gives me a nice excuse to post one of my favorite illustrations from Kyle:

Besides the obvious fact that Smash is an awesome comic that deserves every bit of praise it receives, there is the fact that the artwork is at least partially responsible for that praise. Kyle A. Bolton is the mastermind behind those addictive illustrations and I’m incredibly pleased to have this opportunity to pick his brain. Kyle hit the comic scene after graduating from the Art Institute of Seattle and then going on to work with the likes of Surreal Software and Electronic Arts. I won’t bore you with his resume but it is worthy of some inspection if your interested in that sort of thing. You can learn more about Kyle on his website: www.kylebolton.com.

Shawn Swanson of the comics site Hero Spy has already posted some wonderful feedback about Smash.

Now he’s gone one step further, giving Kyle and I five questions to answer.

He posted my responses today, and Kyle’s will go up tomorrow. Shawn begins:

Here we are once again talking about the changing landscape of the comic book industry. I have mentioned more then once that I believe web-comics are going take over in the near future and writer Chris Bolton is prepared to lead the way with his comic “Smash”. This is possibly one of the best all ages comics on the web. From its awesome illustrations to it’s genuine voice, Smash hits all the right notes.

Here’s the link to his post. Thanks to Shawn for the kind words and a fun opportunity!

Hard to believe it’s been five years since Kyle and Jamie got married! Here’s a moving tribute on their fifth anniversary:

Smash even makes an appearance!

We’ve got a fresh batch of Kyle’s artwork! And check out his brand-new DeviantArt page here. (Click on the images below for larger views.)

Here’s a poster hanging on Andrew’s wall, with Defender racing an F-4 Phantom.

Kyle has been a huge Sherlock Holmes fan since childhood — he even liked the new Robert Downey Jr. movie, in spite of the many liberties it took. This is his homage to the Great Detective.
