you can still pre-order from kickstarter now!
im almost done with BOWMAN 2016!
it will be officially released (along with other HIC & HOC comics)Thursday APRIL 19th @ Desert Island in Brooklyn
already started scanning. this is probably my favorite page in the whole comic, where bowman travels into the city. the dialog of “i cant believe this shithole” and “blech! that smell!” is based after my own thoughts of walking the streets of south philly.
some pre-existing characters that make an appearance are :
man-thing, crimson skull, kid space-heater, lizard king, quotidian, hobo wedding box brown, deal with it dog, black santa, a darin shuler mouse, splinter

RUB THE BLOOD
listen to me and Ian Harker talk about extreme comics, rob liefield, people involved in Rub The Blood, philly scene, and other stupid jokes
RUB THE BLOOD editors Ian Harker and Pat Aulisio. This book is insane in all kinds of different ways. Really good companion piece to the new Prophet. We also talked about some of they projects that they are involved in, including Secret Prison, Bowman and much more. These guys have a good thing going in Philly.
this is the full cover for my release coming from DRIPPY BONE BOOKS
FREAL REAL
its the realist shit you will read this year.
its a 32pg. collection of anthology comics i’ve done over the past 2 years.
it’s also a companion piece to my BOWMAN series since i introduce a lot of the characters in FREAL REAL

COMICS ARE THE ENEMY
new epic fan-fiction jam comic by me JOSH BAYER and JOSH BURGGRAF
thats right! 2 Josh’s for the price of 1!
this is going to be 200 million pages long and will be released sometime in the summer maybe or something. i dunno.
now you can read all of my september 2010 release BARE KNUCKLE online!
the initial idea was that me and ian harker were going to do a split comic that was all one panel per page, based after 90’s nintendo and sega beat ‘em up side scroller games (streets of rage, punisher, double dragon, contra etc.), and in color.
ian ran out of steam and couldnt color his in time for the printers i was using for the color pages so we have ‘sister’ comics, his being titled urban fight featuring larry bird and michael jordan.
notes:
bare knuckle was the original japanese title of ‘streets of rage’ on sega
a ultimate warrior-esque bad guy was in streets of rage, hence me using him as the main character in this
i literally played original sega and beat streets of rage in the 2 weeks it took me to draw this comic.
this never sold THAT well. people would always comment how they love the cover but wouldnt buy the book, there are less then 10 copies available and after that im never gonna reprint it again! BUY HERE NOW!
this is a quick peek at one of the more denser pages in BOWMAN 2016
to be released in april by hic + hoc publications
