Big Apple Comic Con
May 24, 2011Thanks to everyone who came out over the weekend. It was nice to talk to some of the people who help pay my rent.

here’s some concept art I did a few years back of Petruchio from Prince of Cats, my next book from Vertigo…:
…Kase2 inspired Petruchio
I’m not sure if Fuma lost his money in the Kouga-Kola Machine or if he’s just succumbing to his hate for the franchise… either way, his kicking the shit out of the machine.
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
Back in the game like Jack Lalanne. Don’t know the name? …don’t rack your brain. I had some techdiffs over the weekend, if you noticed… keep an eye peeled today and tomorrow. It’s a news day.
I’m up at the KDU Blog. It’s designed by Aerosyn Lex, a professional, so it’s a bit cleaner than this ol’ mess.

…on my entry in the book, he had these kind words to say, “Et j’aime particulièrement la collaboration avec Jessica Abel qui surfe actuellement comme Kyle Baker, entre ce qu’on pourrait appeler la bande dessinée traditionnelle et la New Wave Graphic Novel. Elle travaille ici avec un jeune dessinateur que j’ai croisé et qui m’a semblé si brillant que je n’ai qu’une hâte, c’est de voir ses dessins : ils lui ressemblent et sont passionnants. Il s’appelle Wimberly.
Il y aurait encore quelques fioritures à supprimer, mais la délicatesse de son dessin, son amour réel des femmes, qu’il sait montrer dans des postures toutes ensemble naturelles et aguichantes, son sens de la couleur qui rejoint le meilleur de la Black Exploitation, telle qu’elle mourut dans les années 80 justement (Ah ! la discothèque rouge et la voiture verte), donne à penser que si les petits cochons ne le mangent pas, celui-là sera un dessinateur d’importance.”
The track that I am working with is here on Kanye’s Blog… if I didn’t mention that before.
(that is not my artwork on the blog. I’ll post a sample as soon as I get the go ahead)
