  • Dinosaurs, Drunken Crows, and Record Collectors

    Hey. I know it’s been a while since I rapped at ya. But I’ve been keeping busy. Here’s a few new projects I have out there.

    I illustrated a story (written by Brendan) about “Prisoner of Jazz” Boris Rose for Brendan Burford’s new Syncopated anthology. Boris was an intriguing real life character who recorded live jazz off the radio in a time when most of these performances would have been otherwise completely lost to the ages.

    I colored the cover and several interior bits of art in the forthcoming Art of Tony Millionaire coffee table type art book. I’ve been working with Tony for a few years now, and this book has tons of art and anecdotes that I’d never seen or heard of. Entertaining and Educational!

    I am the colorist for the new Ricardo Delgato 4 part series “Age of Reptiles: The Journey”. You may have seen Ricardo’s previous Age of Reptiles series in the 90’s, and he’s stepped his game up even more this time. So many dinosaurs.

    I have a couple other cool coloring projects on the horizon but them’s top secret for now.

  • my hometown in google street view

    Let’s give google some sort of award. The good it is doing is on par with the Smithsonian or the library of congress. It’s 360 street views are it seems not just of large cities anymore. It is documenting visually the entire US in a way that has never been done before. Case in point: Have a look around at my hometown. Montour, Iowa.. population less that 300:

  • Robot Chicken

    My friend Nick Gazin pointed out that they seemed to have incorporated my idea from Star Wars Tales that the Wampa in star wars has 2 kids into the new Robot Chicken star wars parodies. Here’s the comic I did and a screen capture of the shot on the show ( I don’t mean to sound accusatory. I’m flattered that something I did has sorta become part of the popularly accepted Star Wars universe) :

  • Krachmacher 4 at NY Comic Con

    Posted by jim on April 15, 2008

    I’ll be signing and selling my new book at the NY Comic Con this friday through sunday. You can find me in the artist’s alley section. On the brochure I’ll be listed as James Campbell because of a little screw up with the conventioneers. It should have said Meathaus Entterprises.. I’ll be selling back issues and maybe the new issue of methaus for the crew as well. Hopefully I’ll have company from other Meathausers off and on over the weekend. Chris McDonnell, farel Dalrymple, and Dash Shaw will all be at the Con as well.
