Love The Way You Love
Written by Jamie S. Rich | Published by Oni Press

Tristan has two things to his name - a band and a broken heart - and if he's not careful, he's liable to lose them both. Like A Dog is a band on the verge of blowing up and with Tristan finally back from an overseas trip, they think tonight's gig might just light that fuse! But when Tristan spots his dream girl in the crowd, will she fix his lack of love or send his band's career down in flames?

6 issue Manga digest format series. Issues 1-5 out now, Issue 6 June 2008.

Ellerbisms
Self Published

Ellerbisms are a gateway into my daily life. I cover the usual autobio stuff like getting down about girls but I also yell Les Savy Fav lyrics at people and put my foot in my mouth a whole bunch. I try and present the small parts of life that people can relate to but give my own personal and warped spin on things. It's a webcomic and can be found here, but I also made a mini comic of it and you can buy it from the store.

Speed Trail - An Hourly Comic
Self Published

Hourly Comic Day is an online event that happens every year where cartoonists document a every hour their awake via sequential illustration. Mine came out pretty well and you can read it all here but there's also a limited edition mini comic available.

Venal Muse
Self Published

What exactly is a muse? Does he or she actually exist or is it just something in the artist's head? Marc Ellerby explores this idea in a "conversation" to the reader about a past relationship and how she's influenced/hindered his creativity. Preview here

Polar Opposites
Self Published

Two penguins. One's a complete bastard, the other, not as much. These strips are dumb/funny/political/life shatteringly awesome. I made a mini comic of them and it took forever to put together. Feel my pain!

Put The Book Back On The Shelf: A Belle And Sebastian Anthology
Short Story: Marx & Engles
Written by Jamie S. Rich | Published by Image Comics

My 'major label debut.' Drawn a while ago, the art looks different as it does now, but you know, the rest of the anthology's got Caita Chan, Andi Watson and other awesome indie comic kings and queens, so, yeah, worth a look.

Buy a copy from Amazon.
