Hey Folks, it’s that time of the year again and this time I’m gonna have some goodies for your dirty little fingers. Come out and see me at J12 Where I’ll be selling some posters and other goodies yet to be announced along with my comrade Jorden Haley of Karbine Labour industries. Prepare yourself for some really cool stuff and keep an eye on my tumblr for more info and updates as they come.
So yeah, I forgot to mention…on my own website… that my adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes came out a week or so ago. My mother says it’s the best read of the summer, but don’t take her word for it.
Here’s a brief interview of me talking about it on NPR. But you know… don’t get caught up in the cult of the personality and the spectacle of fame, buy and read the book so I can feed my chil’ren.
A month or so ago I got up with some colleagues and rapped about comics and journalism at NCMR in Boston. Here’s the video. Enjoy!
Yeah, so… My database got hacked and I lost about two years of posts, so… that’s why, if you look closely, you’ll notice two years of posts have disappeared. It happens to the best of us, right? So kids, the lesson is remember to backup your data.
But, I’m back… and I’m gonna keep this site dedicated to my work from here on out. You can see more of my musings and random interests over at my new tumblr, d-pi.tumblr.com. Also Gratuitous Ninja: Loan Sharks is still up and I plan on having some new GratNin news in early March.
So thanks for being patient, I appreciate the support and all of the cats who keep checking for me. It’s gonna be an exciting year. I’ve just completed an adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked this Way Comes and I’ve completely finished inking Prince of Cats. Now I am excited to start several new, exciting projects. I will check in here occasionally to give peeks and stuff.
Sincerely,
Ron “D-pi” Wimberly
tht Behance Mag did an interview on the kid awhile back… figured I should post it. I forgot… and if I didn’t, I forgot that I didn’t forget.

I mean… what do you guys think?
Not for nothing, I’m kinda disappointed… so garish and gaudy.

It’s been awhile folks… I’ve been grinding, what can I say.
So glad 08 is over… tooth and nail people… tooth and nail. ’09 is mine! Biggups to all the heads peepin’ the site. I just remixed the SouJouBou for IdN magazine.
Been working on some work for Dark Horse… I’ve included some of the rejected pieces there in the gallery. I’ll be in IdN soon… keep an eye out.
Any of my french people catch me in that issue of “Gasface”? They did like 3 spreads of the kid or more… crazy… actually, fuck around, I’m gonna scan it and show you in like 20 minutes.
Meanwhile I’m fucking tired.
