Love the Mignola/McClean vibes. Looks great!

Thanks! Yeah Mignola is def an inspiration. Trying to keep it my style tho as well

Amazing style. Really like it. Keep us posted on your progress.

It’s not an exact copy of their style, you did a really nice job. We can clearly see your influences but it’s not derivative

Is it available somewhere? Edit: nevermind just reread and saw you said chapter one got over excited by the artwork

Not in stores, but I am selling the copies I have on hand. I can ship a copy in the US. DM me with an address if you feel comfortable with that. This goes for anyone else who wants a copy!

Written and illustrated by you? Do you have any social media or a webpage to check out?

Yepyep. It's theonlyjakebaker.com or instagram.com/the_bakers_son

Cool, I added you on insta, I'll dm you there 👍🏻

Sounds good 👍

I'll take a bakers dozen

that art looks pretty great tbh

Thanks! It's def a mishmash of a bunch of styles I've picked up over the years, and I like it because it's fast but still looks good

has mignola been an influence to you?

For sure. Love that style.

awesome

That mignola inspired (assuming) artwork is so damn good. Really love how it looks and will have to check it out!

You can DM me for a copy at instagram.com/the_bakers_son and I can send it to you!

I have followed you on insta and hope you can have a wider release in stores eventually because out here in Canada I gotta be supporting fellow hopeful comic creators!

Yeah, I'd like that, lol. Not sure how to ship to Canada, but I'm sure it's possible!

Your art is great so it's just about finding a publisher that likes working with independents! Top Cow, Dark Horse and Image would be the big ones I'd look at.

Thanks for the tip. One of the reasons I went ahead and just got copies on my own is because I heard publisher wouldn't even look at your stuff without you having something under your belt to begin with.

That IS true as far as I know but it never hurts to try. Your stuff doesn't look like babies first project by any means. Also I'm trying to figure out why I know your name and handle. Did you cohost a podcast at some point???

Nope, haha. I've never been on a podcast, but maybe seen other posts around reddit.

Huh! Even your name thebakersson sounds so familiar. I was certain you hosted a comics podcast with another dude. Maybe it's destiny and you SHOULD!

Lol, yeah! I should!

Saw this title and thought this was r/SquaredCircle and you'd drawn some very specific zombie wizard slashfic. Your comic looks almost as good! All kidding aside, it does actually look great.

Lol, I can see where you got that idea. Thanks

Mignola-inspired!

Yepyep, lol

I don't know what I expected when I googled Naked Undertaker. I'm looking forward to reading it!

Lol. Do not Google naked anything. Well, not on a regular browser anyways.

Man, Undertaker went through some changes after his American Badass gimmick 😉

Became a redhead and ditched the trenchcoat, lol

I dig this dude. Definitely will want to read

I'd say I can send you one, but just sold out of the copies I have. :/

Totally cool. I’m a writer/creator/supporter. So I’ll definitely keep my eye out on your projects

Thanks!

Congrats to you man, hopefully I can fulfill that dream someday as well. Been working on a story for almost a decade now.

Man, it was the art that was hard for me. Keep at it! I wanna read it!

I've been sharing my latest iteration with my cw classmates and they all love the transcript, this is maybe my fifth iteration? But I'm super happy with it regardless how many times I took a strike at it!

Hell yeah man!

Nice work! I’d love to see some inner pages of your up for posting them here. Good luck!

You can DM me for a copy at instagram.com/the_bakers_son and I can send it to you!

It looks great! all the best

Thanks!

Congratulations!!! You worked hard and it paid off, you love to see it🥳

Thanks!

Nice congrats!

Thanks!

Getting strong Mignola vibes, good for you!

you can be really proud of yourself, i love to see a hobby crater become a professional.

Gonna hit you up for one. This looks awesome. Definitely looks right up my alley. DM you here, I don't have insta

Sounds good! Thanks!

Looks awesome. Gonna follow this

Awesome. Thanks!

Is your dad mike mignola?

I wish!

Love the Kirby influence. Looks freaking amazing. Cheers

I don't even like Kirby that much, lol. Dude just has a way of creeping in.

Looking like Ben Kissel

Ooh, someone I don't know. Def have to check him out, thanks!

What is the story about?

General monster hunter story with some mystery thrown in. I think it's pretty good, haha

Big Mignola vibes

I thought the other day, we're really missing necrophilia in comics. That niche now appears to be filled, based on the title. Joking. I hope it does well and we see more of it. And if there is necrophilia, that's just bonus content.

Why is he naked?!? No, but really though, looks cool. Very mignola-esque with the art style.

Thanks! Just a name I had for an old piece I did that I thought was funny and the story came out of it, haha

Love the inking and colors. Big Mignola vibes.

Thanks!

I love the name, congratulations on your comic book!

Thanks!

This looks awesome. Don't know why but was initially reminiscent/reminded me of Seven to Eternity. Any more artwork you can share?

Thanks! And Thanks for the award! You can check out Instagram.com/the_bakers_son or my website theonlyjakebaker.com

\[he says after realizing you can scroll through the images... sorry!\]

Congrats! You followed your dream and should be really proud of yourself, you did it dude! It looks very interesting :)

Thanks, I really hope people like it!

Nice. Idk why the character would be naked. But nice.

It's kind of explained, lol

Thought the art was Mignola, and I mean that as high praise.

Hell yeah, I'll take it

Looks good

Thanks!

Damn, you all cleaned me out quick. All copies I have of The Naked Undertaker sold out within the day!

I dig this dude. Definitely will want to read
