Semper Fi



Concept illustration I did for a mini series I was gonna draw. Unfortunately the project died before I got the chance. C'est la vie.

Unused pitch (thank god!)







Pages from a pitch for a graphic novel for American publishers I was working on many years ago (at least two-three years before I got my first U.S gig).

Good riddance!

coloring Hats

iliaskyriazis.com



YUP! I finally got me a proper webpage!
Visit iliaskyriazis.com for all kinds of comic goodness including:

-Exclusive comics you cannot find anywhere else. So far I've uploaded my Beatles story "the one and only Billy Shears" and "Dick Blossom" from an ancient Greek minicomic.

-A link that directs you right back here for news about my upcoming projects. So far we have this thing called "Falling For Lionheart" (more info coming soon) and I'll soon be announcing a mini series about something very big ;).

so--- viva my new webpage! :)

Blast revisited





Blast comics was a superhero anthology I co-edited a few years back. (Follow the link for more info).

I always had a soft spot for this project. It was never going to be a big hit (superheroes in Greece aren't very popular) but there was a lot of love in this book. You can see sample pages at the official Giganto books page but since I now have a blog and all here are some unpublished sketches:
