Presenting... SMASH Book 2: FEARLESS!

We're thrilled to announce that SMASH Book 2: FEARLESS will be published on May 8, 2018!

Here's your first look at the cover. And the publisher blurb:

Superhero. Super young. Super freaked out! In his second adventure, Smash has his hands full with old enemies and a few new ones — not to mention homework.

Thanks to a strange twist of fate — and a massive explosion — Andrew’s dream of having the strength and abilities of his superhero idol came true, and Smash was born. Great, right? Wrong! As superhero Smash, Andrew finds himself in a losing battle with the one emotion no hero should ever feel: fear. And he definitely didn’t count on becoming the prime target of Magus, the vilest supervillain of all time, who will stop at nothing to steal Smash’s powers. It’s going to take Andrew everything he’s got to conquer his fears, safeguard the city, keep his identity a secret . . . and pass the fifth grade.

Inktober 2016: Beware the Ink Monster!

It's October again -- and that must mean it's time for Inktober! Each year, artists all across the Internet complete one ink drawing each day and post their work online.

Kyle has participated in past years (see here and here) and loved it. However, as of this writing he has only 30 pages (!!) left to finish drawing of SMASH Book Two!

As exciting as that news is for SMASH fans, it sadly means he doesn't have a lot of time to finish a drawing each day. But we will post as many illustrations as Kyle manages to complete! Starting with the revenge of the Ink Monster.

SMASH Book 2 In Production!

Just a quick update that Chris and Kyle are still hard at work on SMASH Book 2. And it's more than halfway finished! Here is a penciled panel from p. 92.
