Oh! I think I lettered this, and I didn't realise the art was from @sharkbitesteve.bsky.social!

Simon did letters on RONIN ISLAND and I've always thought everything sat amazingly in those books.

Would never discourage someone from giving it a go, but I've never known a time when there were so many pro letterers fighting to fill their schedules with work.

Need to send you an email about this, because I've literally just cured my 35-year-long allergy/sinus issue. It's transformed my concentration and energy levels. I feel like "me" again.

Simon is great at what he does. If you've been enjoying THE HUNGER AND THE DUSK, all that lettering is his--the fonts, the colors, the aesthetic. Hire him with confidence.

Simon is great - he lettered a big chunk of the Hulk and Herc books I wrote or co-wrote back in the day, along with MECH CADET YU and RONIN ISLAND and the PRINCESS WHO SAVED books! If you've got work, check him out!

After 22 years as a letterer, I now only have enough regular lettering work to keep me busy for 2 days per week. So if you’re staffing a new project, please keep me in mind as your letterer! Or request me via your editor! Recent clients include DC, Marvel, BOOM, Dark Horse, 2000AD, etc.
Thank you πŸ™πŸ»

I’d forgotten just how bad this industry used to be. Not that it’s perfect now.
