- OMG, how could I not post this??? The Super Haters have their own website now... the redundantly named SuperHaters.com!!! The webcomic is going daily (it is only talking heads, after all...), and I'm creating some lead time by reposting the original 64 comic strips that ran on the AudioShocker (and Drunk Duck, too).

- A lumpy, heavily photo-ref'd self portrait:

- Warning to all podcasters out there using podPress on their WordPress blogs: don't update to podPress 8.8.8! It's got some weird flaw that kills your podcast RSS feed. Stick with 8.8.6.3. I had to find that out the hard way.

- I'm launching a daily sketch series next Monday called A Deadpool A Day in December. I was at the Steel City Con over the weekend, and the stupid Monroeville Convention Center doesn't have wifi or openly accessible electricity for vendors, so I was forced to use pen and paper. My Deadpool sketches will run daily though the end of the month.

- Ongoing: Time Log, AudioShocker Podcast, A Podcast with Ross and Nick (and EXTREME), Sequential Underground, Soulboxer, Pepper Jones, and CENSORED (hehe).

I'm officially accepting cartoon commissions for the holiday season! Now you can begin 2011 as the proud owner of some original Nick Marino art!!!

But what kind of art, you ask?
- Custom greeting cards
- Personalized party invitations
- Original designs for t-shirts
- Caricatures of family and friends
- Facebook profile pictures
- And much much more...

If you can think of it, I can do it!

Email nickmarino at gmail dot com for a price quote on your commission request. Plus, you can pay me through PayPal, so I accept all major credit cards.

And, of course, no need to worry -- I'm versed in all holiday classics, so I can draw whatever you need. That includes Robot Moses, the Jewish Santa...

When you're an artist, a lot of work never sees the light of day. Take, for example, these cartoon sketches of wunderkind sibling scratchers, DJ Sara and Ryusei.

A friend of mine from high school landed a sweet job with a major record label and contacted me out-of-the-blue one day in 2008. This friend (who will remain anonymous unless they decide to out themselves in the comments!) asked if I'd be interested in creating some cartoons of these Japanese turntable prodigies.

My style at the time was VERY raw, and I don't think it clicked with the material. My friend was super nice about my sub-par product, but I had to regretfully bow out of the project because it just wasn't working for me creatively.

But I loved learning about these two awesome kids and listening to their turntablism! So there you have it -- one of my secret past projects... FROM THE VAULTS!!!
