Studio JFISH is now Burgermancer

Hello! For those of you wanting to be in the know, I’ve decided to move on from “Studio JFISH” as my universal moniker. It’s been my username on everything, my publishing catch-all, my identity for many years.

Over the last couple years it’s felt less relevant to me. In searching for a new moniker I’ve turned to the title of one of my earlier zines, “Burgermancer”. It feels like a very natural, comfortable fit, and so I’ve made changes throughout and crafted a new website! Here’s where you can find me:

I have a couple exciting announcements to make! First, I’ve reprinted my horror comic NIGHTMARE with a new cover, larger format size of 9x6″ and longer page count! I took the original comic and broke out the panels, giving the story more room to breathe.

You can order a copy at my shop here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/252617395/nightmare-comic-book-2017-remastered-ed The first five orders come with a Lil’ Grim lapel pin, also available in my shop!

The other announcement is that I’ll be traveling to TOKYO, JAPAN to be part of @comicarttokyo and @kaigaimangafesta later this month! It’s my first time in Japan and I’ve been wanting to go for 20 years... Very excited to travel there not just for the pleasure of it but also as a cartoonist tabling Tokyo comic shows!!! More info soon!

Head Lopper pin-up!

I've been enjoying Andrew MacLean's Head Lopper, especially the premiere of season 2, issue #5, in which we're introduced to one of the new big bads BERSERKR! In case you aren't yet familiar, that's the metal giant front and center being dealt blows from Norgal above and Zhaania Kota Ka on the right. Currently the mains are all navigating the deadly Crimson Tower, where BERSERKR and its fellow villain Ulrich the Twice Damned (top left) reside.

As I attempt to navigate writing and storyboarding my adventure comic, Head Lopper offers much inspiration and lessons to absorb. Andrew's art is fluid and stylish, especially in those action packed scenes of great movement. His designs are fantastic! Obviously BERSERKR really grabbed my attention!

Anyways, this pin-up should appear in print within issue #8 or #9! Check out the collection volume 1 tpb if you haven’t yet picked it up!
