B.M.s for instigator

I just finished this piece for Thorn over at INSTIGATOR to be popped into an interview with Brad McGuire and his BF. It was fun to do so… there was a time when Brad was my favorite porn star :)

Anyways look for it in the next issue of that mag.
Cheers, droogies.

Fresno Bully Rescue

Sammy smiles

It’s been a little more than a year since I adopted Sammy, my pitt/pointer mix. I can’t believe how far he’s come and what an amazing dog he is. Obviously I am very thankful that I got him, and for the people who fostered him and the rescue that took him in before I gave him his forever-home, as they say.
I want to give some props to the Fresno Bully Rescue and the great people who work there. Check out their website and help them out if you can :)

Bent Comix Sampler

dave's cover
Hey all, just as an FYI, I’ve been proud to have instigated the BENT COMIX group, a co-op of gay adult comic book creators to hopefully have strength in numbers and a louder voice and larger presence. We put out a sampler a few months back, featuring teasers of work from : Brad Rader, Sean-Z, Sam Saturday, JC Etheredge, Ed Luce, Gravity Faggots, Belasco, Justin Hall, Steve MacIsaac, and myself (Dave Davenport). Some excerpts, some new work (my contribution is exclusive to the sampler).  The book is manga sized, full color, and features a cover by Brad Rader, and one by me.

Pride '09


Check this out! I knew I was going to be mentioned in the Pride ‘09 magazine in an article on queer cartoonists penned by Justin Hall, but I had no idea I was going to have a full page of art work, and that the magazine was  nationally distributed! Honestly, I thought it was just an S.F. local thing. Then I discovered that it was that same mag that has Rachel Maddow on the cover, and an interview of her done by Joe Jervis a.k.a. JoeMyGod. That actually does make me proud. Thanks for the hype, Justin! I am very happy with it.

Marginalized Tattoo is a GO!

shop obake sign
So it’s been nearly 1 month since I took over this place, and I love it. So much room! I’ve gotten the new biz cards, stickers… I’ll be making tees soon. I am setting up part of the shop to sell comics and art prints as well. As soon as it is all together, I suppose a grand opening is in order. Check out the changes to the website too, my droogies!
:D
