Greg Nicotero brings my drawings to life
Tony
Greg Nicotero from KNB EFX takes us behind the scenes of bringing "Bicycle Girl" to (un)life for this fall's Walking Dead pilot.
i've used the word "surreal" a lot, but it still barely scratches the surface.
a couple of lovely FrankenCastle #19 reviews
Tony
So, FrankenCastle #19 hit the shelves last week. Rick and I are immensely proud of it, and it thrills us that apparently some readers are enjoying the ride, as well.
From Benjamin Birdie's rave at ComicBookResources.com:
...when Rick Remender and Tony Moore work together to make comics about a reanimated Frank Castle doing pretty much anything, when you're finished and you put it down, there's really only one thing running through your head like a suspended Buick chassis rigged to slam you into a brick wall: "This is the best damn comic I have ever read."
And an excerpt from Chad Derdowski's Mania.com review:
At this point, I’m just hooked – line and sinker. No matter what the age, all men have a 12-year-old boy lurking within their soul. Moore and Remender manage to extract that young spirit and distill its essence into 22 pages of violence, humor and gore. God bless them.
Have more reviews? please share 'em in the comments!

The Walking Dead: animated motion comic!
Tony
AMC recently released this motion comic based on my stuff, as seen on their Walking Dead video channel:

Comics for Cures sketch cards!
Tony
the guys at Comics for Cures are doing a sketch card fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, so I drew a little inspiration from William Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson, and I decided to do 'em up a little something special, with some pen & ink, some acrylic-filled squibs, and my bolt action .22. You can bid on these bullet-riddled zombie cards NOW on eBay!
and here's a video, so you can see all the action!
