Published on August 18, 2020

DECORUM artist/co-creator MIKE HUDDLESTON's first ever art drop is tomorrow, Wednesday August 19th, at 9AM PDT/12PM EDT! Covers, illustrations, pages, and more!

We welcomed Mike to our site in April, and kicked things off with an instantly sold-out commission list (follow us on social media to see the gorgeous pieces he's been turning out!). You've been patiently waiting since then for Mike to pick out pieces for his debut art drop...and he's delivered a whopper of a package. Some highlights:

- His FIRST Hellboy cover. Mike's run of Hellboy/BPRD covers have been coveted by fans, but alas, most were created digitally. His first one, though, was thankfully done traditionally. A fully-painted beauty measuring a giant 20"X30"!

- TWO covers from his new smash-hit Image Comics series, DECORUM (co-created with superstar writer Jonathan Hickman). DECORUM interiors are drawn digitally, but these two covers, at least, are pen/ink on paper. And if you thought the Hellboy cover was huge...these are 36"X24"!

- Pages from BUTCHER BAKER, THE RIGHTEOUS MAKER! Mike's first hit Image project, as well as a major step in the evolution of his art. With the exception of a gallery exhibition/sale in France in 2012, he's held onto all the pages...until now! Please note: Some pages for the series were done digitally, so there are only so many traditional pen/ink pages available!

- and MORE! Check our social media for a sneak peak group shot at some of the amazing pieces that will be available tomorrow!

Finally, we can announce that Matías Bergara's second art drop from a week ago has now ALSO completely sold out! Just like his first! Every single page from both issues of HELLBLAZER along with his assorted sketches/illustrations are now all gone. 69/69 pieces sold! We are hoping to have more art for another drop later this year; otherwise, look for it in 2021! In the meantime, if anyone is interested in a complete issue from his peerless HELLBLAZER run, please write me ASAP!

Although not quite completely sold out, Bilquis Evely's debut art drop from this past weekend still ranks as our most successful/highest grossing site debut ever. 73/75 pieces sold! Including FOUR complete issues/stories! She is incredibly humbled and grateful at the turnout. We're working on having more art available for another drop, as well (like Matías, if not later this year, then 2021). At this time, she is only considering letting go of her multi-Eisner Award nominated THE DREAMING art as complete issues. I'm working with her on picking out another issue to let go (enjoy scans for the awesome issue that she agreed to sell complete here), so if you'd like to be on the waiting list, write me ASAP.

That catches us up for now. Thanks for reading, and see you tomorrow!
