Welcome to my Writing Portfolio
Here you will find my published comics (both printed and digital), several pitches/treatments for established characters, and articles I’ve written for the pop culture site DenofGeek.com. .
PUBLISHED COMIC BOOKS
DIGITAL ONLY RELEASES
Currently these are titles only available in a digital format on various websites. Although, I plan to have them all released in print as well.
The Deciders: In Mankind We Trust
Twin god-killers from the future become trapped in the present year of 2013. They will battle both Heaven and Hell to save their future and their lives.
Bible Versus: Virgin Mary vs. God
Abandoned by her son’s Heavenly Father, Mary enlists the aid of hotshot attorney Lucy Ferr, who has God hauled into court as a deadbeat dad.
COMIC BOOK PITCHES
These are pitches I’ve written for established characters and current ongoing series. I’m still remain proud of every single one, which is why I added them to my writing portfolio. Please note that all characters are TM & © copyright by their respective owners. Adobe Reader is required to view them.
G.I. Joe: Character Spotlights (IDW Comics)
As a big G.I. Joe fan, I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to pitch IDW three separate G.I. Joe: Character Spotlight’s. The characters I focused on were Cover Girl, Quick Kick, and Overkill . They were interested in my Quick Kick story but unfortunately weren’t able to use it or any of the others. Although it would’ve been nice to have gotten the job, I still remain positive that I’ll get to write a G.I. Joe story someday.
G.I. Joe: The Return of Cobra-La
I wrote this a few years back, when Devil’s Due was publishing the G.I. Joe comic books. It would reintroduce Serpentor and debut a whole new Cobra-La team to the G.I. Joe universe.
Psylocke, the Secret Histories (Marvel Comics)
Psylocke’s past is revealed and finally clarified! Each issue focuses and explains each life changing event, filling in gaps and answering many questions. This could serve as the ultimate canon for Psylocke. (The pitch isn’t in-depth because my story is so brilliant that I’m afraid someone will steal it. I know I’m being conceited but it really is that good! I would gladly talk more in-depth about this story with ANY Marvel editor though.)
Superman: Just A Man
My alternative storyline for the powerless Clark Kent during the One Year Later series. With his powers never to return Clark Kent can now live his life as an ordinary man. Now he’s forced to discover who he really is…Clark Kent or Superman?
Artifacts: Sabine “Revenge Best Served Cold-Blooded”
This was my pitch submission for Top Cow’s Talent Hunt in 2012.

I just laughed myself silly over the Virgin Mary vs. God
Did you pick up the Punk Rock Jesus series by Sean Murphy? If not you should pick them up, great art and great writing.
Congrats on your efforts ma’am. When I hit “read more” I get a “10” error and would like to read more! Thanks!
I will definitely look into why you are receiving that “10” error code. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
I remember back in the ’80’s, the first G.I. Joe comic that debuted Destro…lol. That’s going waay back…lol.
Hey! Read your outline for The Deciders. Kinda reminds me of a cross between Phillip K. Dick and Garth Ennis’ Preacher. That is a good thing.
The only thing that gives me pause is the tone of the ashcan itself. The colors are happy, the girls are super-sexy, and the dialog is light. That seems to go against the tone of the outline. I know you love comedy, but the outline itself has major Sci-Fi chops that would be mostly ignored if you keep the comic itself too light. Just my two cents! Best of luck and let me know if you have need of a colorist!

Good luck with your efforts Jocelyn. The story premise looks great.
Thanks for taking the time to read my pitches! I hope to post more very soon.
