Thank you to everyone who came out to NWI Comic Con this past weekend. It was great seeing you all. So what’s next. March 31-April 2 I will be in artist alley at this year’s C2E2 in Chicago. I’ll have my table number soon and will post it on here and my socials. I will be doing on site commissions with a percentage of those sales going towards Northwest Indiana Cancer Kids Foundation, stickers, prints, and of course comics!!!! The main thing I will be doing is a Invisible Man art print that will be available for the first time at the show.
Outside of the cons, I’m currently in production on the next installment of the Epic Misadventures of Deathbag! I’m about halfway done with art for the pages then will begin lettering and gearing up for the October 13, 2023 launch. That’s right I’m releasing a new Deathbag this year!!! I am also in pre production for another project for 2024. Also, doing working for Prowrestlingtees.com and ShopAEW.com which you can see on my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/artedeguerra/?hl=en

Man, 2022 was a hell of a year and thank you to all of you for all the support. Was a VIP Guest for C2E2, had the best selling shirt for Prowrestlingtees.com and ShopAEW.com, just to name of few. However, I have a lot more to go. I have some new dates for the year coming up with everything kicking off on Feb 11, 2023 at NWI Comic Con in Crown Point, IN. For more info on times and tickets for the first con of the year click here I will have some new art prints, new stickers, new sketch covers, doing on site commissions, and more. Make sure to come on by.
The year keeps on rolling as I will be returning to C2E2’s artist alley in March/April, making my very first appearance at Gem City Comic Con in Dayton, OH in July, and make my return to Franklinstien Horror Fest in Oct. More dates and location to come as the year keeps rolling.
Also this year will mark the return of my original IP the Epic Misadventures of Deathbag. A 20 page comic will be out later this year. It’s completely written with stories by Ben Miller, Jack Gonzalez, and myself, Also, Ashley Esper has drawn a story I wrote titled “Deathbag vs Loading Times” The book is at the mid point with art and will be done very soon. There is gonna be some things returning for example the Panlayer shirt will return. To say I’m excited about this book. I’m getting to work with some creatives I’ve never worked with before and I get to work with Ben Miller again since Tales From the Cryptic Closet #1, which is some years ago. Make sure to follow my socials as I post there more with images of what I’m working on and what work has been released. Thanks again for all that you have done.

Announced yesterday via email from Reedpop/C2E2, I will be a guest at this year’s con. I was announced along with CM Punk, Danhausen, and Mercedes Varnado (Sasha Banks). I will be with the amazing talents of Adam Farster, Ben Miller, and Matthew Skillern in artist alley. Make sure to come on out August 5-7!!!

I will have two exclusive prints for C2E2 this year. Once I get a table number, I will give more information about them.
Also don’t forget on July 30-31st I will be at Fountain City Con for the very first time. I will be at booth 117.

I would like to announce that for the first time ever I will be in artist alley for this year’s C2E2! Yes, I have done the Chicago convention throughout the years but I have never until now been part of artist alley. I will be there with Adam Farster and Ben Miller of Guerrilla Publishing. Once I get the table number I will post that along with a convention exclusive.

With this exciting news, I want to announce another first. I will be doing my first ever sketch cover commission preorder. I will have five spots available at $40 ea. one cover per customer (1 full color headshot/ portrait sketch). The comic will be Image Comics’ Spawn #1. A percentage of the proceeds will go to the Autism Society of Indiana. If you are interested in this presale please email me at jaguerra726@yahoo.com with Spawn in the subject line. Presales starts today 6/8/22.

Just want to give a quick update on what’s going on and what to expect. The next installment of the Epic Misadventures of Deathbag is till in the works, it is being thumbnailed and put together and will be going into the next steps soon. This one is a bit more personal to me and takes DB in a direction we aren’t used to but will be fun book the whole way through. It’s been a long time coming for this one.
Still working on stuff for Pro Wrestling Tees and ShopAEW. For up to date info on that please follow the Instagram page @artedeguerra. Released today was a Mortal Kombat parody of WCW superstars Glacier and Chris Kanyon.
Two other exciting things are happening as 1. an announcement for August is going to be on here soon. This announcement will be a first for me. 2. This is also a first for me as I’m currently working on FX concepts for a indie horror movie that is currently in development. This is something I always wanted to do was to do some “creature creator” stuff. I’m over the moon about this opportunity and can’t wait to update you all with more when I can.

I will be at Creative Comics (Griffith, IN Location) for Free Comic Book Day. I will have some books, prints and FREE Deathbag walking dead parody prints!!! I will be there with my buds Matthew Hansel and Bill Halliar.

As some of you saw, I am currently laying out the next installment of The Epic Misadventures of Deathbag. The book is all written and has some art done but not 100%. It’s getting there.
Free Comic Book Day will be quickly here and I am happy to announce that I will be coming back to my home shop of Creative Comics in Griffith, IN. I will be joined by the amazing Bill Halliar and Matthew Hansel. I will have some books, prints, and will be doing commission at the shop.
