TECHNOMANCER - ILLUSTRATED NOVEL 2023
ROLE: Illustrator
Sins & cyborgs, magic & mystery, vices without virtue, and hell without the hope of heaven...
In collaboration with author M.K. Gibson, I illustrated 39 pieces for his illustrated novel.
 Chapter 3: A VINYL STRING BIKINI AND BOOTY SHORTSI lit a smoke and let my brain ramble a bit, taking in what I saw of the man. His thick black robes were actually an ancient cassock. The bracelet he wore on his right wrist was made of aged bone, as was the belt he wore. Again I was brought back to his eyes; they were deep with old knowledge. All signs pointed to his agelessness... |  Chapter 5: A CENTURY OF RE-RUNS SUCKS BALLSThe area near my home looked like a wasteland. Overturned buildings, fallen towers, debris. A few shanties littered about. And that’s how I wanted it to look. I built the shanties. I blew up the buildings. I put up the radioactive and biohazard signs. And I installed all the security systems and monitors. The real secret of my home was below ground... |  Chapter 24: Blood, Guts, and Demon SemenThe citadel was vaguely mosque-like, with seven outer minarets shaped like upward-curving tusks. The main building was midnight blue with silver accents, Abraxas’s chosen colors. It was an affront to sanity. The angles seemed off, as if made to give the viewer a headache. |

 Chapter 9: METAL IN THEIR ASSES AND GUNS IN THEIR CHESTSJensen took the folder, flipped it open, and spread out a few pages. First, he showed me a painting of Heinrich Kramer and Jacob Sprenger, Inquisitors of the Catholic Church. Authors of the Malleus Maleficarum, the “Hammer of Witches.” I spotted the man in the background of the painting easily enough. Father Grimm... |  Chapter 11: MEET THE DEVILAfter I put on the clothes set out for me—a pair of jeans, my boots, a synth replica of my vintage black Social D t-shirt, and my density coat—I headed toward the study. I walked into the circular-stepped room and it reminded me a lot of Connor MacLeod’s trophy room in Highlander. Only on a grander scale... |  Chapter 19: LET THE BURN IGNITE OLD MEMORIESI took a long pull off the scotch. And then, I started to shudder a little. It was the involuntary shake when you feel on the verge of tears. My throat swelled a bit. I fought it back. Hell. Thinking of leaving my friends over and over. Never having a life or a purpose was weighing on me. God, I felt so alone. I punched the wall of the pod and put my hand over my face to hide my shame. |
 Chapter 26: TAKE THE ABUSEKicking the back of his thigh hard, I drove him to the ground then ran the blade across his throat, opening it. And then—then I just simply pulled. A moment or two later and I was rewarded with the sounds of tearing muscle and a wet ripping pop when the demon’s head came off. Blackish blood spurted as its heart went through motions of life before giving out. I was coated in blood, and I didn’t give a shit. |  Chapter 27: NEITHER LIVING NOR DEAD“It is hard to explain. Certain factors need to be in place for this rite to work. Previously in Whitechapel, the whores never quite perfected it. There is a unique state of being the victim is required to be in.” “Neither living nor dead,” I said in a quiet whisper. “Yes. Exactly. How did you know?” I lit a smoke and nodded at the machines. |  Chapter 12: TO TALK TO SOME GODSAs if on cue, Grimm, not looking at Maz, raised his hand and made a gesture. Maz began to tremble. Small sobs came from him, and he began to go weak in his knees. It was disgusting. Grimm stepped up to him. “Answer my questions, Hell spawn.” |
 Chapter 14: THE RIDERS OF ROHAN MEET DELTA FORCE“Get your fucking hand off of me or you are going to pull back a stump.” |  Chapter34: LAZARUS'S DEAD DICKRicky’s glasses slipped a little. Instead of eyes, he had orbs of pure white light. Ricky turned his head toward me, looked at me, and smiled. He turned his head back to the corpse of Grimm, and the white orbs began to glow brighter. Pure liquid light rolled languidly down from Ricky’s eyes along his arms and settled on Grimm. Grimm’s corpse began to glow. “I need time, Salem,” Ricky said. |  Chapter 16: LIGHTNING MIXED WITH STEROID ORGASMThe crouched Father Grimm snapped his head up suddenly, his eyes, mouth, and hands now glowing neon green. He slammed his fist into the earth up to his elbow. The green energy flowed through the ground visibly, like blood through veins. The energy spread across the graveyard. A silent scream was on Grimm’s mouth. His face contorted in pain. One word eventually came out. “RISE!” And the dead rose. |
