I am particularly proud of the background in this one as well as the script. Enjoy!

Rumor has it that Ben Affleck ran into Christian Bale at a dry cleaners in LA shortly before filming of the much maligned Batman Vs. Superman film. Bale had apparently moved on or was not considered for the role as Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight was decidedly different in tone and style than Zach Snyder’s take […]

This is a particularly personal page for me. It was the first one that I did digitally when I bought Clip Studio (then Manga Studio). This is the “why.” Nightstik is a send up of a certain type of hero, but he lacked a motivation. He is an orphan like so many other heroes, but […]

This page is a return to traditional media. I started it as a sketch, transferred it to clip studio, and printed it out as a blue line. Afterwards, I inked it using Copic markers. The letters are of course done with Clip Studio. When I first conceived this page I lacked the skill to tilt […]
Page 17! On time for a change!
There isn’t really too much different about this page compared to its first iteration way back on Tumblr and later here at castle-comics.com. I changed the direction of it a bit, and fixed some anatomy and perspective. The dialogue is also updated. When I first started putting words to the pictures I had drawn so […]

A glaring weakness in my early and present work is my disdain for drawing backgrounds and environments, something I have really been pushing to improve. Another interesting bit, was that Tim […]

Hello! Here we have page 13 (formerly page 9) in the original iteration of this issue. This one is clearer, and obviously more readable, but there was a rough charm to the original that I tried to preserve as much as possible. Here it is! Cheers!
Page 7…
This is definitely an expansion of the original story. Before, the woman Nightstik saved was unnamed. Now we know who and what she is. She’s Nightstik’s cool Goth chick landlady. Evidently, she knows who Nightstik really is. Enjoy!
A VERY late page 21…
This page was supposed to be a lot simpler than it ended up being. But here it is for my faithful 12 readers! Enjoy! Toby Dycus

Happy holidays and all that! This page was a bear to do. Recently, I re-read The Killing Joke by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland. For those of you that haven’t read it, it is a master class in story telling and art. Anyway, I felt inspired to really up my game and get a more […]
