Interview with Artist Jeff Balke – Planet Comicon 2015

By comicconjohn: on April 6, 2015 • ( 0 )

Jeff Balke is a comic book colorist and one of the most outgoing people you will meet at any con (and he goes to a loooot of them). I have six different pieces of commissioned art that I had colored by Jeff and he did an amazing job on each one.

I got a chance as Planet Comicon was winding down on Sunday to talk to Jeff about the art of coloring and his project, Urban Legends.

Thanks to Jeff for speaking to the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! We can’t wait to see him back in Kansas City at a future con and we wish him much success with Urban Legends!
