The art and comics of Kyle Latino

Escape from the Planet of Kamandi


Just a warm-up while watching some Planet of the Apes. The first movie is a truly wonderful example of film, let alone scifi film. I can imagine a story from Kamandi continuing to expand along side of the Apes movies story very easily, since Kirby’s lifted the ending for the movie for his opening scene for Kamandi.

God is a robot

God is a robot,
Depends who you ask.
God could be wearing,
A football mask.

And now we know why I don’t write more poetry.

Water Color Experiment

So, I’ve been playing around with watercolor in the little spare time that I have, because I am getting bored with computer coloring. The thing that was trying to do was use a crow quill pen on top of the watercolor. The watercolor, turns out, completely ruins the surface of the paper for that kind of thing. So if you want to put ink on top, use a brush. If you want a crow quill line, put that down first, then watercolor, then fill in your blacks.

You’re welcome, process nerds.

My best page

This page is an announcement of my engagement to my sweetheart (who is Batman, so I can’t use her full name on the internet). I’m a comic artist, so when I proposed, I had to communicate in my chosen medium. This isn’t exactly how it went, because I drew it ahead of time, with photo reference for where I was going to really do it. I left the last word balloon blank for her answer. After I actually proposed her, I brought out the page, and asked her to write in her own hand, the words she actually said that night.

“Yes, you jerk-face!!!” are the words she said to tell me that she would marry me. Isn’t that awesome-face?! I’m a very lucky man, no joke.

Best page of my life, in so many ways. Thanks for letting me share it with you.

Search & Destroy

Last week was a great week for TWART. Not only did I get to color two pieces of Dan McDaid’s work, but I also got to work on Tom Fowler’s KAMANDI piece. It was great fun.

The best part about coloring the art of creator’s you love is that you get to zoom in on the HiRes files of the line work. I really got to study Tom’s brushwork, and I’m wiser for it. He’s a magnificent talent who belongs up there with the greats of illustration and cartooning.
