Issue 2 updated: Page 1 is up
First page of Issue 2 is now up on www.LucreComics.com
Yeah I know this is way behind schedule, but I've been plowing ahead with the artwork and other things in my life, so I just didn't really want to take the time to drop in the word bubbles. But seeing as I was tired after work today and didn't feel very creative, I decided it was time to do some busy work.
It ended up taking several hours to get the word bubbles placed; getting everything to look right and blend with the art was not easy. Now I remember why I kept putting this off!
Anyway, page is up. Go here to see it: http://lucrecomics.com/?p=25
See you folks around. hope there's an update sooner rather than later. ;)

I'm BACK in the traditional art world!
Good News everyone! Once again, my artwork, besides being available online, will be available to see, and purchase, in person, in an actual Gallery.
Through a strange bit of serendipity, my business card ended up in the hands of a local gallery owner, and she contacted me with interest in carrying my artwork. Yesterday I stopped by with a few of my pieces to show them off to her... and I ended up not taking those pieces home. They are going up in the gallery as soon as wall space can be made!
That was the least amount of work I've had to do to accomplish something, ever!
Man, if only life was always this easy...
Anyway, on the off chance that you happen to be in the Pensacola area, and that you happen to read this, please do me the favor of stopping by Gallery Zarragossa, located Downtown Pensacola, 251 Zarragossa Street (easy enough to remember ;))

The Shuttered City
(A 134 Graphic Novel)
By Justin Sadur-Torres
“The Shuttered City” is a story of paranoia, decay, and lurking, bestial horror, in the vein of “Shadow Over Innsmouth” and “The Thing” set against a far future humanity that has splintered into various subspecies and organized itself into a brutal caste system.
Through this bleak backdrop drifts the rabbit Leland, a member of subspecies so low in the caste hierarchy that he is considered little more than a pet, searching for a lost love that may be more imagined than real.
Alone and masterless, he is eagerly set upon by the residents of Sylvanshire, an isolated backwater long alienated from the rest of civilization, who wish to “partake” of him, adding his flesh and genetic uniqueness to their own.
He has only one ally in this dreary town, the squirrel Ishmael. Their combined battle against impossible odds and mind-bending horror forms the emotional core of the story, the tale of two lost souls struggling against the encroaching darkness.
In my work I strive to build an atmosphere of slow, rising fear; a world of half-glimpsed shapes and lurking dread. Against this backdrop are set vistas of shadowy beauty and moments of genuine kindness and courage. For this, I chose ink wash, a medium that perfectly captures the damp, chiaroscuro atmosphere of Sylvanshire and its environs.

Issue 2 updates!
Hay folks, I'm actually updating issue 2! Shocking isn't it?
Anyway, I've just uploaded the cover for issue 2, even though I'm not really happy with it, it'll serve it's purpose. Meanwhile I've got a lot of artwork for the interior pages done, I just have to drop in the word bubbles.
