Some of the characters and stories I develop in between Long Exposure work!

RIDE OR DIE

Ride or Die is my next comic project, currently in development. The story centers around Lucky, an ambitionless 20-something with a broken family who wishes he could learn more about the mother he lost to illness as a child. After discovering his mother's forgotten drag-racing muscle car, he fixes it with the help of his hot-headed, former-crush named Vick and is launched into the world of street racing in an effort to learn more about her. But what they don't know is there's something demonic lurking under the hood of the mysterious car, something fueled by revenge... and gasoline.

The Verve

Daisuke Sugiyama is a loud, obnoxious stoner who is made to go to college by his parents and actively hates every second of it. When his test grades keep dropping in his literature class, he has to be tutored by the class's TA, Jacob Callahan. Callahan is a self-absorbed, pretentious asshole with a ponytail, and Daisuke loves nothing more than annoying the hell out of him. The dynamic of their rivalry shifts when Daisuke realizes he's not only got a crush on his tutor, but that Callahan might be a literal super villain.

Lizards

Curtis gets a job at a thrift store after hearing stories of alleged monsters living there that only come out at night. Curt abandons all skepticism when he and his younger sister Tara find three humanoid lizards living within store. Iggy (iguana), Gallagher (leopard gecko), and Hawthorne (thorny devil) have been forced to stay hidden inside their entire lives and pressure Curt to take them out into the city. Iggy develops a one-sided crush on Curt and struggles between winning him over, and believing a human would never return his feelings.

Idiot Squad

Walter Shields has just lost his minimum wage job, and is grieving over a useless college degree. In a fit of uncharacteristic anguish, Walt gorges himself on junk food and passes out on the couch. When he wakes up, he discovers a nasty little man in his apartment raiding his fridge that smells like a dead animal. Mutt claims to be a demon, summoned by Walt who accidentally created a summoning circle out of his fast food wrappers. In an attempt to get rid of Mutt, Walt hires the muscular but painfully stupid Griff, and they eventually form a paranormal investigator group called Idiot Squad.
