sweattz asked: Have you, Robert or Cory ever matched the voices of Invincible characters with certain actors? If a cartoon was ever made, who would you want to be the voice actors of these characters: Mark, Cecil, Eve, Allen, Nolan, Deborah and Oliver.

I always just figured Robert, Cory, and I would do all the voices. Save some Moolah.

darkerthanbrad asked: You should definitely take time out and come to Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo. I'm gonna be Invincible and you and me there, we'd be an unstoppable team.

Ah! You gotta take photos! Wish I could go!

jarasa1 asked: Action figures, when? :))

Toys are usually part of a whole deal, animation, movies and toys. We don’t have a deal like that YET. Working on it.

Goooood sushi, so I doodled on the table. (Paper table covering, not actual table, I’m not that much of a dick)

sweattz asked: Hey Ryan, How do you (personally) motivate yourself to draw things that just aren't that exciting to draw? I know every artist needs to be capable and willing to draw anything at any given time, but how can you do that while keeping it fun and interesting?

I can’t think of too many things I hate drawing. Sometimes I don’t feel like drawing at all, and even stuff that should be fun just wears on me. Means I need a break.
I think if you hate drawing something it might be because it’s hard for you to draw? Which means you need to draw it more so you are better at it.
So in conclusion, here’s a prescription.
Draw the thing you hate 100 times in 100 different ways in a sketchbook then call me on the morning.

youthinkyouknowme21 asked: I bought Violence and Pinwheels, do you have any other sketch books available?

Violence and piggybacks AND Violence and Pinwheels are sold out. I will soon put together a 3rd artbook, not sure if I’ll do a hard cover again though. It’s nice and fancy but heavy and easier to damage. I’ll figure something out! Thanks!
