I know I’m a bit late on this week’s artist profile, had final exams and a minor Pokemon addiction. Alas, I did manage to locate a pretty good pair of artists for this week’s segment. This week’s feature is on The Cure, a comic being created by Eric Lebow and R.G. Rubens, sent to me by Egg Finger.
This is the story of a post apocalyptic world, where people are forced to live in domed cities where everything they eat or drink needs to be purified. One particular dome known as Salvation canyon, is being run by Reverand John Stone, leader of a church telling people that this is the only place left in the world, while running a criminal organization. Now, one man emerges in attempt to bring this people to life. In this festering pit of disease and wretched filth, people need…. THE CURE!
Here’s a black and white cover shot, featuring The Cure and Reverand Stone.

On another note, we have a profile of our main,
Now then, while I like the concept, (particularly the three dimensional logo on his chest)
I’m not too fond of the font used in the bio thingies. Radiation is a common source of superpowers, however, I like how the radiation has been incorporated into the actual powerset, rather than say, giving him spider powers.
And on the flipside, We have a bio of Reverend Stone, our local totalitarian dictator/ fascist priest
I particularly like the fact that his sword is all broken up. I hope they’ll explain that if the book gets released, because that has the potential to be cool.
Now then, this project has released its first three pages, which look very nice: (probably need to click them to read)
These sort of set up the premise, and most importantly show how it will look in action if it gets done. Furthermore, it shows that the author has the potential to go through with their premise, and isn’t all talk.
Third page is available on the small press idol page. While you’re there, why not stop by and give it a vote? We must support small artists, and prevent Related Stuff:
