Lots Of Comic Books Out Right Now

THREE

Three is such a huge achievement for me. The book just came out and I'm hoping to get more readers on this thing. I feel like, for a book this good, it passed under people's radar. I love this book. Local is obviously the most "important" book I've done; Saucer Country had the most creative potential; NY5 was probably my peak, art-wise; Cocotte and Funrama are my most personal work; But THREE is the coolest project I've been a part of, for sure.

Buy Three here, from Image Comics.

Star Wars Vol.2


It was so great to be a part of Star Wars. Definitely a career highlight for me.  I don't remember drawing a dang thing though. I was half-asleep during this time. Volume 2, with my Pencils, just came out this month.

Buy Star Wars Volume 2 from Darkhorse Comics.

LUCIFER Book 3

Lucifer Book 4

Lucifer Book 3 just came out and Lucifer Book 4 will be out in August and that will wrap up the entire 75-issue run. Lucifer was where I developed my skills and I am so pleased to be an artist on a book that is so well loved and admired after all these years.

UnWritten Apocalypse #3

UnWritten Apocalypse #4


With The Unwritten, I'm always coming in, doing some stuff, and popping out when I get busy. What a great series this is. So many fun things to draw in Mike and Peter's book. I did Finishes on Issue #3 and #4   I might be doing something special for the UnWritten in the future.

The Dead Boy Detectives

I'll be working with Mark Buckingham as a Finisher on The Dead Boy Detectives starting with #7. I hope I do a good job. Bucky's work on Fables is amazing obviously, and his work with Chris Bachalo in the 90's is still my favorite art in mainstream comics of all time.

DEAD BOY DETECTIVES #7

Art by MARK BUCKINGHAM and RYAN KELLY

On sale JULY 23 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US • RATED T

The ashes of St. Hilarion’s have barely settled before the tabloids start a witch hunt against “pyrobrainiac” Crystal Palace in the first chapter of the new story, “Ghost Snow.” Charles Rowland and Edwin Paine spirit their new friend away from London and accept the invitation from Charles’s long-lost sister Clementine to visit her and her science-boffin daughter, Miranda, deep in weird and wild East Anglia.

Secret Avengers Original Sin #1

I'm drawing an Original Sin tie-in for Secret Avengers with Ales Kot. One of those Marvel Infinite thinga-majoggers. It will be free with a purchase of Original Sin #2 and #3 by redeeming a code. It's nice to work with Ales. He's a cool dude and we almost did an indy book together a hundred years ago but life got in the way.

Read an interview about it at Newsarama

Funrama #3

Most important of all, I just released #3 of my my epic comic opus, FUNRAMA. Funrama is what you would get if I was given free-reign to make the comic I want. Although, often,  have to work on it "on the side" and I just have to manage some how. This is my book. It's all me. you can't get more Ryan Kelly than this.

Funrama #3; Cactus Man is available as a $2 pdf download or $4 plus shipping for a print copy at www.funramacomic.com I hope you buy it, I know you will like it!

I have some other things "in the works", and something not announced yet, so we'll have to wait and see.

Also, Cocotte, my webcomic with Kat Vapid is cooking along . New post going up today too!

I Draw Supergirl A Lot.

Another commission bites the dust.

Y'know that thing where artist X posts a drawing of some character Y on their blog and they're all, "OMG, I'd love to draw this character!", and then all the commenters go, "Dude , I'd totally love to see you draw character Y!"; and then the bloggers pick up on it and they go, " Yo, company Z, you totally have to get artist X to draw character Y!"; And then 6 months later, artist X is drawing character Y for company Z?

Yeah, that's what I'm doing with Supergirl.

Green Lantern Sketches

Here's a set of quick, fun sketches inspired by Blackest Night.
Wheee! Colors are fun and exciting!
Typically I would sell these at a convention for...oh, I don't know...$70 each. But if anyone wants to buy all four of these, I'll cut a small dealio. I will be increasingly emphasizing the market availability of the art I post here on my blog, as I need extra money to print my Funrama books and travel to all these conventions this year. These are a little smaller than usual--9 X 12 inch paper I think.

Son Of Jor-El, Kneel Before FALLCON.

Edit:
Here's the Ebay Listing for this Supergirl Drawing. Go bid on it. All the money goes to a good cause.

Here's a Supergirl piece I did for the Marla Bea Benefit Auction. The money goes to cancer research. Go look at all the artwork up for auction. I also donated a painting to another charity auction for Wonder Woman Day in Portland. Check out the gallery, there's some awesome art.

This weekend is Fallcon! Are you excited for Fallcon? How excited are you?! This much excited?! All you need for your ticket to enter a world of magical, mystical wonder where the children of the world come together in peace and harmony to enter a world of real Fallcon fruit flavor is within your reach Here

If you would like a piece of original art like this beautiful Supergirl piece, FallCon is your chance to make that dream happen. As you all know, it takes me weeks, MONTHS , even years to get to commissions over email, and that makes me the worst person that has ever been born.... BUT!... If you catch me at a convention-Presto!-the commission appears right before your eyes! Just like David Copperfield, I reach behind your ear and say, "oh what's this behind your ear? Ah, it's a full color sketch of Death!". And then you cry.
