Bay Area Bound

So I'm heading to the East Bay tomorrow for 10 days, so I won't have anything updated for a while. Probably not the worst news you've heard, so when I get back look forward to a lot of images, both drawn and taken...

and let the comics begin...

So it's been a long time since I've penciled a page from thumbnails and last night I started and inked a whole page, and today I inked half of a second page and whatnot... I'm pretty stoked to be working on something other than diary comics or sketchbook stuff (especially since the quality of the sketchbook I have right now is shit city). Here's a panel from my untitled story:

And here's some sketchbook shit



(i dreamt i had a date with julie doucet)

I Saw You out now, son!

After a year or so's passed since I finished a comic for it, the anthology "I Saw You"(edited by Julia Wertz) has come out and is available now in comic shops, book stores and the internet! There's also a blog here: http://missedconnectioncomics.blogspot.com/
Check it out! Forbidden Planet's sold out right now, but we'll get more soon...And there's a signing at Desert Island Comics (on metropolitan btw union and lorimer) February 20th!! Free booze and cookies, I'm back on the wagon, so it'll be cookies for me.
No really new drawings lately, but I have been reading some great comics that are new to me and I love! Surviving Saskatoon by David Collier is amongst them and is having a large influence on my drawing lately, Drop In by David Lapp and a bunch of Gipi (The Innocents and Notes for a War Story) and I'm back on another Hernandez brothers kick, so that's nothing bad...

finally...

So, I finally have the internet and am almost settled in my new home. It's a loft space and stuff, here are some photos of my room:


(yes that's scott pilgrim 5 on my bed...busted)
And to make up for the lack of comics and drawings, here's some I was saving...

So, now that I have the internet and have for some reason been totally stoked on getting things done (I'm with Julia and blame January...), hopefully a lot more comics and sketchbook things will be put up on this at least twice a week! Take care

a well respected van

So after being up since 7am and dealing with New York City's DMV and the insurance company I'm now in the final processes of registering and owning a van (split 7 ways... between two bands)! It was by far the most stressful thing I've dealt with in my life, in and out of the DMV five times, the original notary had the guy who was selling it and myself sign in the wrong spot and the identical insurance letter I presented to four people was not sufficient enough until the end of the day. FUCK!!!
And now, after taking the day off from work to deal with this, I'm far too exhausted to enjoy the fact that I came out in the end, victorious!! Anyways, here's some sketchbook bullshit to alleve tension:

Some Stuff

So the good people at Atomic Books in Baltimore, MD have Crooked Teeth and The Archer for sale on their website, if you feel like ordering with a credit card or paypal or something!
ATOMIC BOOKS

And a very exciting review from Mr. Eric Reynolds of Fantagraphics books had this to say:
"CROOKED TEETH 2 & 3 and THE ARCHER by Nate Doyle. Nate Doyle was one of the most impressive discoveries at SPX for me. All three of these comics are very good, and The Archer is easily one of the best self-published comics I've read in 2008. Search him out."
Fantagraphics Blog

Lots of band stuff recently, so unfortunately the comics are coming slowly, I'll post more soon and if anyone would like to get directly in touch, feel free to email me welfare_nate(at)yahoo.com
Thanks
