Gary Scott Beatty’s jazz piano man Dean Fontessa returns in five stand alone stories on a central theme that come together with a twist — like a masterful, cool jazz solo!

About the Author

Xeric Grant Recipient Gary Scott Beatty read his first comic book, a beat up old Tin Tin hardcover, in his grade school library some time before the '60s Batman craze. The first alternative comic he produced (They were called "underground" then) was on his high school's ditto machine, after hours, without permission. Nearly three decades later the tools and format have changed, but Gary is still producing printed pieces that communicate and entertain. His current Aazurn Publishing projects include Xeric Grant Winner "Jazz: Cool Birth," "The One" with "Adventures of Aaron" artist Aaron Warner, "Seductions" with Oz artist Bill Bryan and "Adam Among the Gods" with James Lyle. Lengthy articles detailing every step in Aazurn Publishing's birth are cataloged at aazurn.com. His coloring and lettering for 3 Boys Productions' "Students of the Unusual" has appeared since the popular indy comic's first issue - now his logo design graces each cover. The controversial "Wedding of Popeye and Olive" Gary colored for Ocean Comics was discussed on Good Morning America, in "The New York Times," "Time" magazine and "Newsweek." His work with nationally syndicated cartoonist Aaron Warner included coloring "Adventures of Aaron" Sunday strips, producing the "Sparky and Tim" collection cover and typography and coloring for much of Aaron's advertising studio work. His cover coloring for Scott Rosema's "August" are now definitive of the character. His production assistance in Omega7's "America's Forgotten Children" publication helped lead to the recovery of several missing children. He letters for Viper and for Kaso Comics, has written scripts for Nicky Cruz Outreach and, locally, produces a full color, monthly entertainment magazine. --This text refers to the paperback edition.

The first alternative comic Gary Scott Beatty produced (They were called "underground" then) was on his high school's mimeograph machine, after hours, without permission. Decades later the tools and format have changed, but Gary is still producing printed pieces that communicate and entertain.

"Wounds," one man's descent into madness accompanied by death in a tuxedo during the zombie apocalypse, drags the zombie genre, kicking and screaming, into new territory. Check out the free preview at http://strangehorror.com/wounds-free-preview.pdf

"Jazz: Midnight" is art inspired by '50s album cover design and story inspired by music.

"Worlds," the first Gary Scott Beatty retrospective is a 96 page collection of early work, unpublished art, in-depth articles, a jazz art gallery and more.

His Aazurn Publishing publication, "Number One," with "Adventures of Aaron" artist Aaron Warner, was named one of the best indie comics of 2014 (Shawn Perry, Bleeding Cool News).

Through his Indie Comics publication, Gary presents promising newcomers and veteran independent creators, introducing them to a wider audience through worldwide distribution.

Plus, Gary now produces a Publishing Comics video blog.

And -- Strange Horror is now a series!

Gary Scott Beatty continues to stretch the boundaries of comic books, graphic design, album artwork and storytelling all in one fell swoop. I'm a life-long fan of the music styles, genres, and eras, he explores in a most fascinating way, and his art blows me away. Kudos, Mr. Beatty!
