Paulo in Space!

Hi Everyone!
It’s me, Paulo dropping in to write about a new project I’ve been working on when I’m not drawing the HARDY BOYS, which isn’t very often. I love drawing the Joe and Frank, but one of my biggest loves outside of music and art is…
SPACE!
I am a big fan of astronomy and Science Fiction. If you are new to Science Fiction, pick up a book by Ray Bradbury. Just don’t blame me if you get hooked and can’t stop reading him.
Recently I began writing and drawing my own graphic novel about an astrobiologist who explores new worlds to learn more about the evolution of intelligent lifeforms on planets far away. I like the character, but I haven’t named her yet! I’ve never published my own work and the HARDY BOYS pages take up most of my time, so I’ve only got about 10 pages done. I hope that it becomes a full-length graphic novel. I thought you all might like to see a little peek at some of my work that isn’t HARDY BOYS, so here goes…This is a three page sequence where our protagonist has landed on a new planet only to find some surprises…
I hope you enjoy this look at some of the work I do away from the HARDY BOYS. I love Sci Fi and this has been a fun project for me. Keep reading our blog and thanks to all you fans out there!
Looks great, PH. Scary stuff!
How about ‘Metal Melt’?
Will you continue it? Do you plan transform MM into a ”paper comics” or will continue as ”web comics”?
Fortunately, the water bug that slipped into the Papercutz offices isn’t anywhere near that big!! >whew!<
Say Paulo, that’s great. I’ve been loving your Hardy Boys work, but delighted to see you’re able to branch out into other directions too.
Out of curiosity, does Papercutz or it’s creators ever sell any original art?
Hi! I’m glad you liked the work. Sometimes artists do sell original art; it varies artist by artist. Thanks for reading!
This looks great PH, is it going to be read like manga usally is(Right-to-left.)? I know the Hardy Boys weren’t.
