Commentary: Press Conference

Welcome to Chapter 6 of Aces High! This was the beginning of the 3rd season, as we thought of it. A new season also means a new artist, this time one Mike McMahon. I found Mike when he was a college student in need of an internship. His internship consisted of drawing this season of Aces, roughly 50 pages. In return, I helped guide him and took him to Wizardworld Chicago that year, so he also got to work a convention and see the business side of being an independent cartoonist. A few years later, I ran into him at another convention, this time he had his own table and comic.

Like I did with John, I colored over Mike’s art and did the lettering. Stylistically, Mike wasn’t too far from John, so I think there is good continuity over-all with the comic.
