He penciled stories for DC's horror line and wrote and illustrated occasional short features for Marvel's Epic Illustrated. He illustrated the graphic novel 'Murder By Remote Control.' He left comics to work in editorial illustration, advertising, and toy design, but he returned in recent years, resuming his Dope Rider strip, a collection of which has been published as "A Fistful of Delirium.' He has created a second volume of 'The Bus' and a new series, 'Hieronymus & Bosch,' which has appeared at the Adult Swim website and in book form.
