It has been 10 months since I posted on this blog. In that time I have started two weekly webcomics (with two great writers) and have started to become a local comic celebrity!
I'm very busy with my latest book... almost done penciling. And now I have also started doing a P.E.T. comic strip on my lunch hour at work. It's fun to do little side stories. Here are the first Five:
I will be giving away FREE MINI-COMICS at Right Brain Brewery (in Traverse City) this coming Tuesday (April 26th) from 8-10pm. These Mini-comics contain a 6 page preview of Gone (my Graphic Novel, which will be available there for $10) and the 7 page P.E.T. Christmas special! Also there will be free bumper stickers (a few to choose from) and, yes there is more, I may do drawings... depending on how drunk I get.
I am 31 pages into the penciling of Snowed In: A Paranormal Extraction Team Adventure! But that's not all! I will also include a large sketchbook section like I did with Gone. And there will also be a deleted scene (with director commentary) and a side story that was originally produced for a friend's website. Here is a sketch that will be included in Snowed In:
Jeff Manley has been drawing comics his entire life. As early as 1994 Jeff fancied himself a comic strip artist, but it wasn't until the year 2000 that he started to self-publish "mini-comics" in the mid-western underground do it yourself comic scene. On January 17th, 2005 Jeff embarked on a mission to document his daily life in comic strip form. He lasted 3 and a half years until he moved on to other projects. He currently lives in Northern Michigan with his lovely family and enjoys hot cocoa.
